Egor Zaitsev at Russian Fashion Week 2005
A Russian Fashion Week record — Egor Zaitsev in the 2005 designer showcase, kept as the record of the show.
Egor Zaitsev showed at Russian Fashion Week 2005, in the designer showcase linked above. He is the son of Vyacheslav Zaitsev, the famous Russian couturier and master of Russian fashion, and his biography — kept below as the record — begins inside his father's house: he graduated from the Institute in 1983 and started his work in the Moscow Fashion House of Vyacheslav Zaitsev.
His very first collection, a diploma work of six men's official jumpers and trousers, was included by Vyacheslav Zaitsev into the evening part of his fashion show. The three photographs on this page record the 2005 presentation, and his March 2006 Russian Fashion Week page is linked from this record.

The Zaitsev House, Second Generation
Later collections took Egor Zaitsev far beyond the house: work for the Fashion Theatre and a model agency, and outfits for many famous Russian musicians, films, the circus and figure skaters. In 1998 he won the Grand Prix at the Sochi fashion festival Velvet Seasons. Since spring 2004 he was a participant of Russian Fashion Week in Moscow, where he was admitted as one of the best RFW designers — the standing from which this 2005 record comes.
There is a particular weight to a second-generation name on a fashion week roster. The audience arrives with the father's standard in mind, and the son's collection is read against thirty years of Russian couture before its first look reaches the end of the runway. Egor Zaitsev's record — the diploma collection folded into his father's show, the theatre and film work, the Sochi Grand Prix, and a best-designer standing at Russian Fashion Week itself — is the account of that inheritance being carried in public.
