4. In an editorial, WWD comments on street fashion in Russia like this: “What do they wear when walking along Rubinshtein Street, Nevsky and Bolshaya Konyushennaya during the white nights? A little bit of everything: culottes, trench coats, floor-length dresses, shorts, a lot of stripes, polka dots, checks and prints that are hard to pass by.
