Marusya Fall 2012 Collection

Marusya, the couture eveningwear and fur collection by Russian designer Marina Ilchenko, debuted last night at the posh Peninsula Hotel.

The presentation highlighted the designer’s glamorous fur and exotic skins collection handmade by Ilechenko and Russian artisans from mink, fox, chinchilla, swakara, crocodile, and lizard. This season, Ilchenko also used Sable – the world’s finest pelt. The luxurious materials created coats, vests, capes and a dress.

We adored the shoes by United Nude.

The combination of the traditional and modern ideas paved way to the inspiration of Helmut Newton’s work. Marina reinterprets and translate these photographs to come up with a collection full of conviction, power, and temptation. The collection ranges in price from $12,000 to $25,000.
