Russia is the largest country on the globe, covering more than one-eighth of the inhabited land area of the world. It is also the ninth most populous country in the world with more than 140 million citizens that incorporates dozens of ethnicities.

While most of the articles you will find on Russia focus mainly on politics and economics, Moscow has a lively street fashion and youth scene. If you are interested to know more about contemporary Russia other than just politics, then this article is for you.

Russians pride themselves on having a unique lifestyle that is completely different from the rest of the world, be it their philosophy, religious views, day-to-day life or fashion trends. Russian Street Fashion is a combination of both high-end and main-stream.

It seems that everyone knows how fashion conscious Russian women are. You will come across plenty of articles and photos about how they spend hours putting on makeup and choosing clothing just to do mundane tasks like taking out the garbage or going to the grocery store.

But that only captures one part of the Russian fashion scene. Moscow Street Fashion – and Russian street fashion in general – has become a lot more diverse over the years. In fact, the calvertjournal.com has written about young Russians trying to start their own small-scale clothing and accessories production.

Unlike other big metropolises such as New York, London, Tokyo, Milan and Paris, there are very few dedicated Street Photography Blogsabout Moscow Street Fashion or Russian street fashion in general – in English at least.

Shades of Russia is one such site. It is a series of street portraits covering not just Moscow, but other Russian cities as well. While it doesn’t focus exclusively on fashion, it does give a good sense of the local fashion flavor in Russia.

Calvert Journal is a portal dedicated to Russia and Eastern Europe and offers great coverage of Russia’s fashion and photography scene. You can comb through it to find people around the country capturing street fashion, though it doesn’t offer straight-up street photography portraits
