WOW I just LOVE these animal sleeve sweater/jumpers !!!!! I really would love to have one of these..
where is the bra and panti section
I dont know, But I bet they have animal sleve mens underwear too
ha ha ha ha good one.
i agree, russian style is and was awesome minus soviet factory made
!
Whats with the animal sleeves? o_O
Rodrigo? Rival? GGG! xD
What’s with the clothes? What’s with the people?
Is that like saying it’s hard for you to just look at something and say “Wow, that’s different and interesting!”
Different? Sure. Interesting? Not really.
aw, looks so lame. i still remember these – my mother used to have subscription.
I must admit, that is absolutely hideous.
….is that Borat?
the last picture looks like chain mail armor.
I love the lady’s arm! It’s morphing into a zebra!
I want to grow my hair like the guy in last photo. It’s very nice and big.
I’m looking at the picture of the man with the stylin’ sun glasses and the Borat-style moustache…
The caption says (transliterated from Cyrillic)Muzhskaya Rubashka. What does that mean?!?! I can only transliterate since I know the Latin cognates of all Cyrillic letters.
Thank you!
Sexy women in the photos remind me of my favorite songs by band “Hot Chocolate”–a song called “Miracles.” Everyone–in honor of Soviet fashion women, sing along!
I believe in miracles
Where you from
You sexy thing
I believe in miracles
Since you came along
You sexy thing
Hey, guess what? Nobody cares. Keep your gay thoughts to yourself.
(Insert musical symbols here)
doooo . . . doo, doo, doo, doo, doooo . . . di-dit, di-dit,
How did ya’ know I needed you so badly
How did ya’ know I gave my heart gladly
Yesterday I was one of a lonely people
Now you’re lying next to me
Making love to me
Not even I dress that bad!
Men’s shirt.
Any chicks here?
Yep, 1989.
Time was frozen in the USSR, as these pictures prove again. These outfits were fashionable in the West in provincial areas during 60′s and 70′s. More or less..
Awful. One of the worst times ever in fashion. Never to be repeated again, I hope.
ВЯЗАНИЕ It’s not fashion you monkey
Knitting, fashion, entertainment…whatever, the point is that these clothes were made and someone actually thought it would be cool or at least useful to make these.
Looks like 80′s fashion sucked no matter what country you were in.
those are pics from nitting mag not fashion mags, we had mags like that here during the same time
Ben
A knitting mag will also reflect contemporary fashion, of course.
LOL! Go look at any current knitting magazine out now and tell me it reflects current fashion.
Ok, I checked. It did reflect current fashion, as I said.
man , nitting and fashion – are two separate industries!!!! nitting is a personal hobby, and fashion is fashion.
Mine do. It’s where I get many of my ideas for how to dress when I secretly leave Iran to travel abroad, where I can be the “real me”.
Wait…. I think this one might actually be funny.
Na, your still not funny.
Isn’t the woman in the 1st picture Julianne Moore, when she was younger ?
Photoshop!
Why you be so mean to me? I only make joke
That is not a joke.
A joke goes like this…
A ham sandwich walks into a bar and asks the bartender for a drink and the bartender says sorry we dont serve ham sandwiches.
Leaving photoshop as a comment for every post is not funny.
Haha I like your joke it reminds me of child hood! im glad you like my joke
…So I am in with the chance of catching one of those animal sleeve sweats? :O
Are Aran sweaters popular in Russia?
Awesome,D
title of the post is wrong.
this is not about fashiion, its about knitting instructions.
Funny thing. Russians in 89 were more stylish than Americans in 2008. Funny Ignorant Americans got no sense in style and taste.
oooh, that hurts
Hey US guys you are so funny… you neva gona have culture like russian one.. go to russia first
Better not to get wasted at all, and do something useful and constructive instead.
Go to Russia experience Gin and Tonic in a can from vending machine, what a culture.
You mean like America uses old european fashion?
Ahhh, 1989…… A year most of us would like to forget.
Did something bad happen when you were 5, D?
Il motore si surriscalda.
Ma vattelo a pigliare in culo
vaffanculo!
Do you regret the fall of Soviet Union?
Not the idea behind it… the soviet union had many flaws and could no longer exist….. but the manner in which it was done was all wrong and what I regret is the collapse… I wouldnt call it a fall, collapse is a better description. We needed something like what china is doing… a slow reform, not the shock treatment that we got. Knowing whay you know now… would you have done it the same way?
ehehehe what a look \ but nice
Tremendo!
What is the culture of Russians? Drinking vodka, sleeping in subway, getting drunk in public and pass out everywhere, beating up Russians from caucusus and Asia, making child porn, prostituting in europe and america, threatening tiny neighbours is that it?
If thats Russian culture I am not surprised Russia is still a 3rd world poor trash country.
From the above 2 comments it’s quite clear we need them both.
To balance everything.
And do not forget the entertainment value!
Are you wondering what to give your Russian princess this Valentine’s Day? I would like to suggest Aran sweaters. They are very warm and are reasonably priced. My sweetheart just loves them. Yes, they do deliver to Russia. To avoid custom hassles, just order one sweater. Here is there website…

You just never know. There might be Irish blood in your Russian woman…
I once had an giraffe sweater, it was eating leaves. I think I had one with a cat (or just paw prints) as well. Must have been around ’89 (I was very young). Not as ugly as these ones though, they had a better use of colours.
I’m from western Europe…
leafs, not leaves… I need an edit function. Please?

It seems that Soviet fashion had better sense than Western in the same period. The 80′s just weren’t able to have the worst fashoin ever because the 70′s actuall happened (no, it was not a nightmare)
