Moscow Fashion Week has transformed Russia's sprawling metropolis into a dazzling confluence of global fashion, attracting cinema luminaries from Italy, China, and Turkey, alongside a vibrant mix of designers hailing from ten nations.

Ornella Muti, the venerated Italian screen icon, graced the event in a gesture of familial support, her eyes set on the runway as her daughter, Naike Rivelli — a talent in her own right as both actress and singer — dazzled onlookers in a creation by Moscow’s MaisonESVE. Rivelli’s choice of a sheer, opulent gown left an indelible mark on the attendees, spotlighting once again the unique ability of Moscow Fashion Week to captivate even the most discerning of Italian celebrities. The duo’s venture into the world of Russian fashion did not stop there; an exploration of PEPFER’s bag collection culminated in the mother-daughter pair departing with treasures in tow, a testament to the week’s international allure.
Lily Ji, whose career boasts a role in the Hollywood hit “Pacific Rim: Uprising,” embarked on a personal mission to narrow the cultural divide, adorning herself in traditional Chinese attire that spoke volumes of her heritage. A thousand-year-old Song Dynasty dress and a Ming Dynasty gown from half a millennium ago served not only as sartorial choices but as silent ambassadors of China’s rich artistic legacy. Her presence lent an additional layer of star quality to the showcases of native designers, from EFREMOV to Julia Dalakian and GAPANOVICH, with the latter’s homage to Russian traditions particularly resonating with Ji.
The starlight of Moscow Fashion Week shone no less brightly on Turkish actress Gizem Karaca, whose early work in “The Magnificent Century” has since blossomed into leading roles in “Sapphire” and “Black Love.” Karaca, drawn by the allure of Russian creativity, expressed her admiration for the innovative designs on display, particularly those of BEENA, a brand that harnesses the moon’s ethereal glow for inspiration. Her support extended beyond her home country’s borders, cheering on Turkish designer Emre Erdemoglu amidst a tableau of talent from across the globe — from South Africa to Costa Rica, China to Egypt.
Over the span of seven days, Moscow Fashion Week has once again asserted its position as a global stage for the showcase of cultural diversity, emerging trends, and the boundless potential of fashion to unite realms far beyond the confines of the runway.
