  • The Ageless Art of Ajrakh Printing

    The Ageless Art of Ajrakh Printing

    The block-printing style called ‘ajrakh’ is a legacy of the Indus Valley Civilisation.


    Ajrakh is an ancient block-printing method on textiles that originated in the presentday provinces of Sindh in Pakistan and the neighbouring Indian districts of Kutch in Gujarat and Barmer in Rajasthan. The word ‘ajrakh’ itself connotes a number of different concepts. According to some, it comes from the Arabic word ajrakh, which means blue, one of the chief colours in ajrakh printing. Other historians say the word has been coined from the two Hindi words- aaj rakh, meaning, keep it today.

    According to others, it means making beautiful. Although ajrakh printing is a part of the culture of Sindh, its roots extended to the states of Rajasthan and Gujarat in India during the times of the Indus Valley Civilisation, around 3000 BC. The Indus river was an important resource for washing fabric and sustenance of raw materials like indigo dye and cotton, which were copious along the river. Ajrakh printing thrived in India in the 16th century with the migration of Khatris from the Sindh province to Kutch district. The king of Kutch acknowledged and recognized the textile art, and indirectly encouraged the migration of Khatris to uninhabited lands in Kutch. Ultimately, some Khatri printer families migrated to Rajasthan and settled in and around Barmer province of British India, including present-day Gujarat, and excelled at the art of ajrakh printing. At present, the Khatri community is engrossed in consistently producing jrakh printed fabric of supreme quality in Ajrakhpur village in Kutch and also Barmer.

    Celebration of nature

    Ajrakh printing celebrates nature amazingly. This is evident in the aesthetics of the unification of its colours as well as motifs.

    The traditional colours found in ajrakh printing are deep, which symbolise nature. Crimson red symbolizes the earth, and indigo blue symbolises twilight. Black and white are used with a view to outline motifs and define symmetrical designs. Although the use of eco-friendly synthetic dyes is prevalent, the use of traditional natural dyes is being resumed gradually. Indigo is obtained from the indigo plant. Craftsmen used indigo plants growing profusely along the Indus river. Red is acquired from alizarin found in the roots of madder plants. Black is obtained from iron shavings, millet flour and molasses with the addition of ground tamarind seeds to thicken the dye. The contemporary ajrakh prints have intensely vibrant contrasting colours like rust, yellow and orange.

    The use of traditional elaborate motifs is still prevalent in ajrakh printing, which is the legacy of earlier generations. These are symmetrically-geometric jewellike shapes symbolising natural elements like flowers, leaves and stars. The most common motif found in ajrakh printing is the trefoil which is thought to be made of three sundiscs joined together to represent the cohesive unity of the gods of earth, water and sun. All motifs are stamped around a central point and are repeated across the fabric in a grid forming something akin to web-like design, or the central jaal. This jaal is made of vertical, diagonal and horizontal lines. Besides this web, border designs are also printed. The borders are aligned both horizontally as well as vertically and frame the central portion, distinguishing one ajrakh from another. A wider double margin is used to print the lateral ends with a view to differentiate the layouts of borders.

    Processing ajrakh

    Ajrakh printing is a long and arduous process that requires a number of stages of printing and washing the fabric repeatedly with different natural dyes and mordants. The technique of resist printing is employed. This permits absorption of a dye in the required areas and prohibits absorption on the areas meant not to be coloured. The stages are elaborated below:

    Saaj: The fabric is washed to remove starch and then dipped in a solution of camel dung, soda ash and castor oil. Next, it is wrung out and kept overnight. The next day, the fabric is partially dried under the sun and then dipped in the solution again. This process of saaj and drying is repeated about eight times until the fabric produces foam when rubbed. Finally, it is washed in plain water.

    Kasano: The fabric is washed in a solution of myrobalan which is the nut from the harde tree. Myrobalan is used as the first mordant in the dyeing process. Next, the fabric is dried under the sun on both sides. The extra myrobalan on the fabric after drying is brushed off.

    Khariyanu: A resist of lime and gum Arabic (babool tree resin) is printed on to the fabric to outline the motifs that are required to be white. This outline printing is called rekh. The resist is printed on both sides of fabric using carved wooden blocks.

    Kat: Scrap iron and jaggery are mixed with water and left for about 20 days. The water becomes ferrous. Next, tamarind seed powder is added and the ferrous water is boiled to a paste known as kat and is printed on to both sides of the fabric.

    Gach: Clay, alum and gum Arabic are mixed to form a paste which is to be used for the next resist printing. A resist of gum Arabic and lime is also printed at the same time. This combined phase is known as gach. To shield the clay from smudging, saw dust or finely ground cow dung is spread on the printed portion. After this stage, the cloth is dried naturally for about 7-10 days.

    Indigo dyeing: The fabric is dyed in indigo. Next, it is kept in the sun to dry and then is dyed again in indigo twice to coat it uniformly.

    Vichcharnu: The fabric is washed thoroughly to remove all the resist print and extra dye.

    Rang: Next the fabric is put to boil with alizarin, i.e. synthetic madder in order to impart a bright shining red colour to alum residue portion. Alum works as a mordant to fix the red colour. The grey areas from the black printing steps turn into a deeper hue. For other colours, the fabric is boiled with a different dye. Madder root imparts an orange colour, henna adds a light yellowish green colour, and rhubarb root gives a faint brownish colour.


    The role of the industries

    Water plays a significant role in ajrakh printing. Craftsmen treat the fabric with mordants, dyes, oils, etc. Water impacts everything from the shades and hues of the colours themselves to the success or failure of the complete process. The iron content in water is the decisive factor which determines the quality of the final product.

    Dhamadka was the chief location of ajrakh printing for a considerable span of time due to the favourable source of water. But after the 2001 earthquake, the iron content in water increased heavily and the water turned to be unusable. Thus, the artisans from Dhamadka village shifted to a new base and named it Ajrakhpur. They have taken initiative in harvesting water keeping in view the fragile eco-system.

    Ajrakh printing in Sindh, Kutch and Barmer, are almost similar in terms of production technique, motifs and use of colours. This is due to the fact that craftsmen in these areas descend from the same caste-families of the Khatri community who migrated to Kutch and Barmer from Sindh in the 16th century, and who are the descendents of the Indus Valley Civilisation. At present, the Khatri families are distinguished for carrying on with the traditional technique of ajrakh printing.


    Traditionally, vegetable dyes were used by ajrakh printers, but soon they began to use naphthol dyes and synthetic dyes realising that vegetable dyes were proving to be too expensive. But with the revival of the craft once again, ajrakh printers have reverted to the use of natural dyes. New motifs are being added to the design library day by day. Earlier, the body and the border used to be same, but now complementary borders are in vogue.

    Earlier, blocks used to be made in a place called Pethapur. Now, blocks are made in the homes with the help of machine-like drills. And, instead of natural water resources, modern printers use water from borewells. The craftspeople are also planning to establish a treatment plant for treating polluted water. Changing times have called for critical changes both in terms of utility and design. But the beauty of the traditional art has withstood the test of time. A number of hubs of ajrakh printing have cropped up across India as well as Pakistan proving that art is supreme and it transcends national boundaries.

    In tune with changing times

    A number of NGOs are currently engaged in making efforts to uplift this craft by providing new inputs to the craftspeople. The NGOs conduct year-long training programmes to train aspiring craftsperson in all relevant aspects of the art and give them monetary support during the same. NGOs also back them in selling their products in the market and earn due profits. But the number of such NGOs is not sufficient in proportion to the number of craftspeople needing this assistance. Thus, the government, the NGOs and those who are devoted to this craft should come forward and devise ways and means to shield the interest of craftsmen who have been nurturing this art for ages.

    In spite of environmental calamities, industrialisation and changing political regimes, the traditional craft of ajrakh has survived. Craftspersons are revitalising the age-old use of natural dyes for western markets. The handmade, ecofriendly and natural dyes are preferred to non-eco-friendly machine-made and artificial dyes and colours.

    With passage of time, ajrakh printers are now open to trying out new motifs, designs, dyes, materials and want to keep pace with the growing and changing contemporary world of fashion. At present, the printing art is being impacted by market demand and the new crop of ajrakh printers are prepared to accept and experiment with new pattern inputs provided by fashion designers. Hence, it has received a new lease of recognition both nationally as well as internationally. There is hope that these are not just transient fashion trends and that the ajrakh artisans will carry on the tradition of catering to the world with a fascination for highly proficient, elaborate, handcrafted textiles for generations to come.

  • Gucci’s New Global Makeup Artist Just Released a Mesmerizing Beauty Book

    Gucci’s New Global Makeup Artist Just Released a Mesmerizing Beauty Book




    Thomas de Kluyver has always seen the beauty in imperfection. In fact, the rising visionary makeup artist has made a career of subverting the ordinary—and the extraordinary.

    Long before he was drawing on vivid gazes for Sies Marjan or gluing crystalized tear prosthetics on cheeks at Gucci, Perth-born de Kluyver was just a teenager in rural Australia hungry to create. Inspired by Stéphane Marais’s Beauty Flash and François Nars’s Makeup Your Mind, he began experimenting with fluorescent pigments and pots of iridescent glitter. “I started doing makeup on my friends before we went to rave parties,” he explains. “It never occurred to me that a boy could do makeup as a job.” That changed when a 17-year-old de Kluyver met a male makeup artist working at the local MAC Cosmetics counter and subsequently landed himself a job there. At 20, feeling the gravitational pull of city life, de Kluyver moved to London and began working the door at a nightclub. “I wore makeup myself and started getting noticed,” he explains. “That’s how I booked my first shoot.”


    Since then, from the runways to directional editorials, de Kluyver’s provocative body of work has set itself apart, and demand for his directional eye has soared. Being tapped by Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele, earlier this month, to become the Italian fashion house’s global makeup artist is just his latest coup. But despite the 33-year-old’s rapid rise, de Kluyver hasn’t strayed too far from his roots. In fact, he’s reflecting back on them in his new book, All I Want to Be, published by IDEA. Visually tantalizing and narrated with aid from art director Ben Kelway and poet Wilson Oryema, de Kluyver’s 144-page tome features abstract shoots with six different photographer friends. “I’m very close with a lot of collaborators, and I thought it’d be nice to capture [my work] more permanently than [in] a magazine or Instagram,” he explains. “And in doing so, I wanted to showcase a very diverse group of people, examining their identity and vanity, and then portraying their beauty through the lens of finding it within.”


    With an emphasis on inclusivity, identity politics, and radical self-expression, de Kluyver presents six different editorial shoots, giving thoughtful context for each set of characters. There’s the Technicolor spread lensed by Harley Weir, starring Japanese adult film stars, with bursts of fuchsia and tangerine swirled on the cheeks and applied full-body on a few of the models, while one—the book’s cover star—has her face saturated in high-impact sparkle and lids haphazardly swathed with daffodil shadow. Shooting young skater boys with Sharna Osborne, de Kluyver sought to “explore masculinity within makeup,” painting harlequinesque shapes on their faces in washed-out shades of cobalt, crimson, and canary. Also homing in on the first flush of youth is the Oliver Hadlee Pearch shoot, which finds teenagers sporting lipstick-smudged teeth and cartoonish false lashes. “I wanted to capture the innocence, awkwardness, and naivete of being a teenager,” de Kluyver explains. “Just that time where you’re hanging around by yourself and discovering makeup as a tool of expression.”

    It’s a notion that still deeply resonates with de Kluyver, who cut his teeth in front of his bedroom mirror, with posters of Courtney Love and Shirley Manson plastering the walls around him. “I didn’t go to makeup school or have any formal training,” he says. “I just did makeup in a way I thought was beautiful. And now, the industry is finally embracing that freedom.

    ” All I Want to Be is available now in a limited edition of 750 copies on ideanow.online and at Dover Street Market. A portion of the proceeds benefit Mermaids UK, a British nonprofit that supports gender-diverse and transgender children and teenagers.

  • Red Lipstick Is a Symbol of Democracy: How Did Alexandria Ocasio-Cortes Draw Attention to Herself?

    28-year-old Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez recently brightly announced herself, winning an internal election in a Democratic party in New York. A Latin American woman who advocates for women’s rights, LGBT people, raising the minimum wage and health insurance for different sections of the population, has overtaken the candidate Joe Crowley with 20 years of experience in politics. In addition, Ocasio-Cortez may become the first young woman congressman in the history of New York.

  • Dots and lines can make garments that suit the wearer

    Dots and lines can make garments that suit the wearer







    Line
    A line is a versatile mode of expression. Its various qualities evoke different feelings and each type has distinguished significance.

    Various styles of lines are:
    –>         Vertical lines: These relate to the length of the garment and give an illusion of height as the eye of the viewer runs from top to bottom, concealing the width of the wearer. So, vertical lines are suitable for the heavy body type and for those who are short.
    –>         Thin vertical lines: These are explicitly suitable for heavy people as well as wearers with an athletic built. They have come to be associated with a strong personality, and so, they are used mostly for formal wear.




    –>         Broad/Thick/Dominating Vertical lines: These are not suitable for a person with a heavy torso as they highlight just what needs to be concealed, but they can be worn by a petite person as they give an illusion of height. The outcome may be a masculine look, so they are more suitable for men’s wear.





    Horizontal lines: Running across the body, horizontal lines widen the look of the wearer as the eye of the beholder is guided across the width of the body rather than the height. Horizontal lines are inappropriate for people with a heavy body type, but suitable for a slim tall person who wants to distract attention from height.



    –>         Diagonal lines/ Zigzag lines: These lines are highly kinetic in appearance and would suggest liveliness and movement. Diagonals and zigzags can be used to create a focal point in an area of a design or a garment to highlight it, while concealing others. These lines are very striking and easily capture the attention of the onlooker. They counter natural curves.

    Credited with creating a masculine look, they are more suitable for menswear.
    –>         More horizontal diagonal lines: These would give a widening effect so they are not suggested for a short or plump person.

    –>         More vertical diagonal lines: These would give an illusion of height and slim build, so they are suitable for a squat person. However, these lines should not be used in an area which is to be hidden. A slim person may look more slim in these lines.
     



    Perpendicular lines: These lines are bold and eye-catching, useful in making a blank, large area in a garment or design more exciting and conspicuous. They counter roundness and conceal flab.




    –>         Dotted or slashed lines: These lines are more attractive than regular, continuous lines. These break the monotony in a design, making a basic outfit more interesting and attractive.





    –>         Curved/Undulating/Spiral/Wavy lines: Graceful and elegant, these lines create a feminine look and emphasise roundness. So, they are not very suitable for the skinny wearer. These lines suggest fullness and are used frequently in sportswear to counter the masculine look of the sportsperson.–>



  • The Super in style Goyard Saint Louis Tote currently Comes in a very spanking new Size

    For a considerable length of time, the prevalent Goyard Saint Louis Tote has come in only two sizes: PM and GM, which are little and expansive, in satchel measure terms, in case you’re simply taking in the ropes. The PM is 11 inches wide over the base, while the GM is 13 inches wide, which settles on them famous decisions for daysacks or portable items, individually. What you won’t know, however, is that Saint Louis is proposed to be a shoreline sack, and now the brand has discharged a size for individuals who need to convey a considerable measure of towels down to the sand: the Goyard Saint Louis XXL Tote.

    At a quite larger than average 24 inches wide, the Saint Louis XXL almost duplicates the measure of the plan’s past biggest alternative. With a stature of 16.5 inches, the aggregate inside limit is colossal—to such an extent that Goyard thickened and protracted the handles and added additional hand lines to the shapes, for enhanced help and obstruction. The XXL additionally accompanies a bigger pocket than the PM and GM models.

    It can be difficult to envision what a 24 far-reaching pack would look like in down to earth terms on the grounds that all totes are far littler than that, yet do the trick it to state: Goyard didn’t bounce, name-wise, specifically from GM to XXL for reasons unknown. The sack is determinedly expected to fill the Saint Louis’ unique need, which is to convey a heap of generally clumsy open-air necessities for multi-day at the shoreline. In spite of the fact that the sack is fortified in the handles, it’s still exceptionally lightweight and unstructured, so I’d utilize alert in packing the XXL with overwhelming things. It appears to be best utilized as planned.

    The Saint Louis XXL is at present accessible in four shades of Goyardine canvas: dark with dark trim and dark with tan trim, both of which are valued at $1,780 in the US, and also naval force and dim, which are evaluated at $2,310. The pack is pristine and accessible for buy at Goyard boutiques.

  • Is it true that you are Getting Bored With Saint Laurent Bags?

    At the point when Anthony Vaccarello touched base at Saint Laurent in 2016, he had tremendous shoes to fill. In just a couple of years, his ancestor Hedi Slimane had drastically changed the general population picture (not the say the name) of the brand, boosting benefits by redoing almost everything about its item lineup and perspective. As fast as he arrived, however, he chose to leave, and Vaccarello entered his place, in an extremely unsafe position: The brand had quite recently experienced an exceptionally open and exceptionally noteworthy tasteful move, which had been extremely well known with customers, if not with faultfinders. (It is the customers, at last, who matter to the brand’s parent organization, Kering.) Vaccarello needed to accomplish something other than deciphering Slimane’s work, in the long run, however, the planning was all wrong for a major move in the gathering. Following two years, however, the ideal opportunity for that may be currently.

    In May, I expounded on how a major piece of Saint Laurent’s purse system for as far back as a couple of years has been having, as, truly twelve or so fundamentally the same as fold bear packs with logo equipment. The arrangement changes a smidgen with each new accumulation, yet the look was produced ahead of schedule under Slimane and it has swelled to take up the vast majority of the satchel character at YSL. The other huge component of the brand’s tote variety is the Sac de Jour, which was likewise a moderately early expansion under Slimane that has remained to a great extent unaltered in the a long time since Vaccarello assumed control over his actions, except for slight equipment changes and a less organized choice for the pack’s greater sizes. The general population picture of the brand’s sacks has turned into somewhat stale.

    Holy person Laurent Bellechasse Bag, $1,990 through Nordstrom

    The most remarkable expansion to the tote stable under Vaccarello has apparently been the Bellechasse, which is an impartial, custom-made shoulder sack without the logo equipment that describes most reduced YSL choices. It’s been a humble achievement, in any event in view of my discernment, however, it hasn’t been the sort of sack that is turned the consideration of pack darlings like a large number of the primary pack makes a big appearance under Slimane. Vaccarello has demonstrated a few signs that he means to manage the presentation of more sacks like the Bellechasse, for example, the comparably unbranded Amalia, which is a without logo saddle pack that is recently in stores.

    The issue Saint Laurent may be going to confront, however, is that these new outlines aren’t especially particular or alluring, and the sacks in Saint Laurent’s lineup that are, have all been outstanding by the general population for a considerable length of time and are beginning to demonstrate some weakness. It’s critical for all brands to have a line that incorporates a lot of calmer pieces, but since satchels are the general population face of a form line too much more individuals that will ever have the capacity to pick a brand’s cowhide jeans or gathering dresses out of a lineup, it’s fundamental to have a pivoting choice of super-unmistakable marquee pieces. On the off chance that you let customers become weary of those plans without offering something new and energizing, customers tend to look somewhere else, and it at that point winds up harder to move those more unobtrusive choices, as well. The cornerstone outlines give a snare to the whole brand, and they should be kept new.

    Holy person Laurent Amalia Bag, $1,990 by means of Nordstrom

    On the off chance that you require an ongoing case of a brand bungling this calendar a tad due to an architect change, you can look to Givenchy, which let the Antigona, Nightingale and Pandora lounge around excessively long toward the finish of Riccardo Tisci’s residency without giving something similarly energizing to come straightaway. (Truly, Givenchy attempted with the Horizon, however, the execution was somewhat off, and the pack didn’t get on as comprehensively.) Saint Laurent could possibly be made a beeline for this same exhausting destiny, satchel shrewd, on the off chance that it doesn’t have some good times in the pipeline for customers in the following season or two.

    That is the impression I get from customers, at any rate—bounty will engage the Slimane esque styles until further notice, however, he just gave the brand such a large number of re-interpretable thoughts in his brief span driving it. Vaccarello will need to wander farther into his own particular take a gander, at any rate with a major presentation or two. Tell us what you think about the territory of Saint Laurent in the remarks.

  • Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone wore the similar floral dress.

    Katrina Kaif, Deepika Padukone wore the similar floral dress.


    Katrina Kaif and Deepika Padukone wore a similar floral dress by designer duo Gauri & Nainika but styled it differently. Take a look.


    Actor Katrina Kaif, who is currently busy promoting her upcoming film Bharat has been spotted in many stunning summer looks. Be it a silk yellow crepe dress from Altuzarra, or a floral Sabyasachi saree, the Zero actor pulled off the looks with utmost grace and style. In a recent promotional appearance, Kaif was seen in a one-shoulder floral pastel pink Gauri & Nainika dress and she looked like spring. She kept it minimal with a simple hair-do and neutral make-up.



    The Zero actress Katrina Kaif is out and about promoting her new film Bharat. The movie starring her former beau Salman Khan is set to release on June 5th. While the promotions are going on in full swing, Kaif is all set to release the film alongside a stunning star cast with names like Salman Khan, Disha Patani, Tabu, Jackie Shroff, Sunil Grover, Sonali Kulkarni among others.
    While she is not the only one in the limelight, she makes sure that all the eyes are on her during the promotions. Kat’s fashion game has always had some ups and downs, but she seems to be back with a bang in all the summer colours. Just a few days ago, Ms Kaif stepped out in a bright blue dress making it a perfect way to deal with summers.

    We could say that she is back at it again with another stunning ensemble and this time she chose a floral gown by Gauri & Nainika. The blush pink gown featured a floor length silhouette. The one-shoulder outfit was a perfect fit synching the body at all the right places.

    Kat kept it fresh as the summer by opting for a dewy finish makeup and glowy skin. Simple diamond studs was her accessory of choice for the event. Further, Kaif styled her hair in signature waves keeping the look fresh and chic at the same time.

    At a recent promotion for her upcoming film, Katrina donned a pastel pink floral saree by Sabyasachi. Take a look: 



    Deepika Padukone who stole the show with her gorgeous looks at Cannes 2019 was also seen in a similar Gauri and Nainika outfit sometime ago. The Padmaavat actor wore a different pattern though around the neckline and styled it much differently than Kaif. She did a side-parted bun but went for a similar neutral make-up. Florals and pastels are clearly a good choice this summer season.

  • Formula 4g: Supermodel Alina Baikova

    We continue the series of interviews with fashion insiders who share their thoughts on the impact of technology on fashion in general and on their life in particular. The hero of the joint project “Kyivstar” and the editorial board of FWD was the Ukrainian supermodel Alina Baykova. At the moment, Alina lives and works in New York, and she also runs her own charity fund The Heart Fund, supports Ukrainian brands and leads an active social life. It seems that it is impossible to manage everything with such a busy schedule, but this is not about Alina Baikov. We talked with Alina and found out what motivates her and inspires her to work, and asked about her cooperation with Sasha Samsonova and the Cannes Film Festival – 2018


    Alina, your schedule is extremely busy. What helps you to manage everything? Perhaps you use special gliders or applications on your smartphone?

    I do not use anything at all and I forget everything. You can not even imagine how many meetings and phone calls I miss, because I never write anything down. I hope for a memory, but she fails. I really have a very busy schedule, I take part in many different projects – these are photo sessions, meetings, and other events. I live to the full (laughs), and to all have time, almost do not sleep: only 4-5 hours a day. I think that sleep is a waste of time.

    How important is it for you to conduct social networks, what are the weaknesses and strengths of popularity on the web?

    Social networks in our time are very important. More important than anything else. For example, Justin Bieber is in some ways more influential than Barack Obama, because he has more subscribers. One post of Bieber can level the opinion of all the authorities. To build such communication, it is necessary to exert a lot of effort, always post posts, monitor what you publish, and all this diplomatically and carefully. But hiring people to run your account for you is also wrong because they will never do it at the level you can do yourself. This is a very complex but powerful platform for influence, on which everyone today depends.

    You have the service of Alina’s Flowers. How do social networks help you promote your business and do they help at all?

    This business does not exist anymore, I have not worked in it for a year because of internal problems in the company, but the social networks really helped us to promote this service. And I think, if it still existed, we would go much further, certainly thanks to social networks.

    Have you had time to try the Internet of the new generation 4G?

    I now live in America and I constantly use 4G (LTE). I know that in Ukraine they are just starting to launch 4G, that’s why it’s great that Kyivstar is developing new technologies in our country.

    Do you like testing new items – gadgets, technologies?
    Yes. I’m curious, I need to learn everything and try everything. There are various novelties that greatly simplify and improve life.

    What are your favorite gadgets?

    There are no questions – this is a smartphone. There all the most necessary and vital. How sad it did not sound. It contains everything: email, calls, correspondence. There will be no phone, there will be no me.

    What kind of smartphone are you currently using?

    iPhone X.

    Have you ever tried to abandon a smartphone for a while? 

    I arrange a digital-detox for myself. For example, on Sundays, I use the phone less, but still, I can not completely refuse it, because on this day I may have meetings or work, and I should be in touch. Maybe someday, when I become rich and I do not have so much responsibility and deeds, I can completely abandon the phone, but I can not afford it yet.

    The only time I had such a case. Once I flew to North Korea with my then young man, and at the border, I had a mobile phone. I spent four days without a phone. It was quite an interesting experience.

    34286359_180033866044318_6911730942050566144_n

    Remembering the recent scandal with Facebook and the leakage of personal data of its users, do you think it is worth fencing off social networks and how to protect yourself from such situations?

    In fact, I also suffered from this. I have a special personal email that was pretty hard to get, and it was he who was tied to Facebook and Instagram. Soon a lot of incomprehensible letters began to come, and I stopped giving people the address of my mail because I was just lost in such a sea of letters. It’s too late to protect myself somehow, and I do not think it’s worth to give up social networks just because of this. It is up to you whether to agree to the terms that are offered to you or not. It’s still our choice.

    How do you feel about the emerging trend in virtual models that look like real people?

    I think this is an interesting idea. You live and think that everything is already there, everyone has already invented, and then such people appear. In principle, it is difficult to give an assessment of this – there is, but I think that this is a good marketing move.

    Do not you think that virtual models can replace people?

    No, I think that they will create several more types and this will end the trend.

    23347341_1844286825881780_7255490791458471936_n

    Not so long ago you took part in the fashion-film of Sasha Samsonova. Tell us about this cooperation.

    I heard a lot about Sasha from Dasha Shapovalova, and Dasha just adores her – both as a person and as a professional, she appreciates her work. We wanted to collaborate several times, but each time everything was canceled. And this time Sasha herself came out on me and offered to participate in some kind of project (then I did not yet know what it was). And I said, ” Come on.“. Dasha frightened me a little, saying that we would not have contact with Sasha, because we both have a strong character, and because of this I was a little worried. But when I met Sasha, she struck me with her vision, professionalism. It’s next level, really! It was a very good experience for me, and even with the Ukrainian director. I worked very hard with whom, but Sasha really has a unique vision, what atmosphere she creates on the set and how the process is going on is very inspiring.

    By the way, Katya Panchuk, the designer with Ukrainian roots, provided things for the shootings. How important is it for you to support Ukrainian designers?

    For me, it is very important, and at the slightest opportunity, I put these things on. I often wear Gasanova and clothes from other Ukrainian designers who, during my visits to Kiev, give me things or send them here to New York. In occasion of shooting with Sasha: these outfits are simply incredible and, probably, will approach at least for Met Gala. I would like to take everything for myself, but I simply have nowhere to go into such things.

    What impressed you the most at the Cannes Film Festival this year?

    It was one of my best trips to Cannes. Every year I flew there because of my charitable foundation, and it was always a job, although it breaks I had time to walk along the red carpet and go to events. This year my charity foundation did not take place, because we were a little late with the confirmation of the venue: we chose a yacht, but the weather turned out to be very bad, plus there were a number of other reasons. So we moved the charity dinner in New York. This year, the only thing I needed to do was take a few photos and show up on the red carpet.

    Did you manage to rest or did you work all the time?

    As such, I did not have rest. My stylist flew with me, and thanks to her I had a little more free time this year. But because of the mass of affairs, it was not possible to relax. I could have 20 events a day, so I went only to the most important.

    When choosing outfits for the red carpet, do you completely trust the stylists or control the choice of the image yourself?

    I control, but my stylist knows both me and my taste, so she always gets to the point. There are times when she says that this designer is important, but not quite in my style. I sometimes help her and “walk” certain outfits so she can build relationships with designers.

    How do you feel about the gesture of actress Kristen Stewart, who, during the passage along the red carpet of the film festival, took off her shoes and went barefoot?

    I hope her stylist will pick her the best shoes next time. (Laughs.) But it seems to me that this is already too much: if you do not want to wear shoes on your heel, then go along the street or sit at home. There are things you do not need to bend a stick. If you go to a beautiful restaurant and put on shorts, you will not be allowed, and I support it. If you are going to the red carpet, choose low-heeled shoes, but do not go barefoot. Even if Kristen wanted to say something, it’s disrespectful to the designer who gave her shoes, and to the stylists. For example, I really love heels and I think that you can always find an alternative.

    What inspires and motivates you to move on in your work?

    First of all, I’m just sick. (Laughs.) I constantly need to do something, I need an action in life, I need a drama because otherwise, I will be bored. Secondly, these are people who surround me. I am very lucky in this regard because I communicate with people like Daria Shapovalova. I wonder how she manages everything, I’m not even married yet, and I have no child, but I still do not have time. I’m motivated by my friends and friends, we give each other advice, support, and therefore we are moving forward. There is no way back.

    What will change the life of Ukrainians with 4G from Kyivstar?

    First, 4G is a great speed. And this means that in cities where the fixed Internet is poorly developed, people will be able to use 4G as a replacement for the home Internet – to watch films, lectures on Coursera, communicate with loved ones, watch videos with seals.

    Secondly, the 4G bandwidth is much larger – 10 times compared to 3G. This means that even if you watch the entire family online, and everyone on their gadget, the speed still will not change.

    Third, in the 4G communication standard, there is much less so-called ping (packet delay). For example, a video on YouTube takes an average of 3-4 minutes. In the 3G network, the clip is fully loaded on the smartphone for about 1.5 minutes. In 4G this clip will be loaded for 1 second. You just do not notice the download process.
