The fashion featured in photography duo Frant & Fifa's latest photoshoot sheds light on the industriousness of Soviet women between 1965 and 1990. Although the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics remains a dark subject, Fashionising writes, "Few people know how real life looked behind the iron curtain, and even fewer are those familiar with the incredible fashion and the boundless creativity defining the USSR people at the time."
Frant & Fifa hope to shed some light on this era by showcasing the homemade fashion of Soviet women. What makes these designs so impressive is the fact that they could easily be strutted down some of the top runway shows today. Frant & Fifa juxtaposes the chic looks in creative ways.
