After Party “Defile on the Neva". Shopping Mall “Baltiysky”. 17.10.2008

Last year at the after party "Defile on the Neva” that took place at the shopping mall “Baltiysky” Max Chernitsov presented his Spring&Autumn’2008 collection called "Fire!". This year the shopping mall “Baltiysky” will see Viktor Anisimov’s presentation of two collections at once – women’s “Fir-Trees" and men’s WAWA-“Avia” (Autumn&Summer'2009).

The ANISIMOV trademark was founded in 1998. Since 2007 Viktor Anisimov has been producing only women’s collections under this brand. Since 2006 men’s collections of the designer have been presented under the WAWA brand. Viktor Anisimov’s studios are based in Kiev and Donetsk.

The contents and forms of the "Fir-Trees” women’s collection of Viktor Anisimov are being kept secret so far. The designer only asked to announce it with the following words: "The “Fir-Trees” is a children’s collection in the adult way... "

However, the WAWA-“Avia" can be fully disclosed. The WAWA trademark was designed by three creative persons – the fashion designer and artist Viktor Anisimov, the businessman Aleksandr Belyayev and the football player Vladislav Vashchuk. WAWA therefore rests on the three whales – art, business and sports. The first branded collection was dedicated to gold, the second one to races. The Spring-Summer’2009 collection, which we will see at the shopping mall “Baltiysky” on 24th October, is dedicated to high flying. Hence the “Avia" part in the name. The theme is justified by airplane brooches, fire-proof flying suits of the 30s, bombers of the 40s and black&white prints featuring famous aeronauts of the early last century. The collection is full of denim, wool, jersey, merry checks, patchwork, badges as well as drawings of Evgeniya Gapchinskaya, the favourite artist of glossy magazines which have a column for children.

The theme of childhood, naïveté, sincere joy and freedom perfectly suits both the aviation and creativity of Viktor Anisimov, one of those rare designers of the world that possess not only an original sense of style but a good sense of humour as well.
