Putin's Russia has been producing endless propaganda since the start of the war in Ukraine. We've already reacted to terrible Russian propaganda music and Z concerts, and now we have something completely new - RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA DRIP! Moscow Fashion Week took place in Russia recently, and it had a lot of Z cringe in it - including 'patriotic' fashion shows and even more 'patriotic' outfits. Moreover, in this video I'd like to tell you about how Russian propaganda also exists in fashion, with the appearance of such brands as PUTIN TEAM and other new Z brands in Russia that are trying to bring back the style of USSR's Joseph Stalin. So, what is Russian Z drip like? Does Russia have a chance against major Western brands? And why is everything that the Russian propaganda touches so terrible? Let's talk about it. subscribe if ur new thx xoxo

yep thats insane.
Holy shit it's barely even subtext at this point. It's absurd and scary that this isn't being taken more seriously
Before this stage of the war the Ukraine had half the per capita GDP as Russia. The place was and is pretty crappy and it isnt because of Russian bombing
Larisa Dolina gave an interview a year ago. where she start talking about decaying rotten west that they have no culture and ruzzia have it all, the best art, the best culture, movies and music, ruzzians are the greatest and don't need anyone, westerners are all just jealous. and right after that interviewer asked her: "What is your the happiest memory?". she answered right away: "It's when I had a gig on Broadway". LMAO
Bwahaha epic! 😂
She sounds a lot like these Trump supporting politicians. You already know they don't like kissing Trump's ass but they know that they will have to suffer the consequences if they do not.

I recently watched an older Vice news on fashion week in Russia. When the person who was ahead of the event was asked why the Russian market is so weak. He said that they were learning and starting to produce their own clothes but it will still take a very long time for Russia to catch up to the west. She asked why he says this? Umm, we have no designers, they all leave.
Oh, yeah.., another reputable source))
@@elibrod9981Who is reputable? Asking a Russian who organised a fashion week in Russia is a pretty standard level of sourcing. For getting context on the Russian fashion scene what authority can someone have other than experience?

I'm Italian and I had never heard about Ornella Muti being Z, or pro-Putin or whatever. What a World we live in. 😂😂
German here, had my childhood in the 70ies. So she isn't a no one to me. I'm a bit confused...
I answer in english, even though I'm italian like you so everyone can understand. Ornella Muti is an actress who appeared in many movies. She is pro Russia because she's like half russian or something. I doubt she's Z....still going to an event like that is really inappropriate to say the least......
40 years ago....
@@marcosaccaro2640 Not half russian. Her mother was a Baltic German from Estonia whose father (Alexander Wilhelm Krause, a medical doctor) was from Võru (Estonia) and mother (Emma Katharina Krause, born Hauck) was from Saint Petersburg (still from a German family, not Russian). Her grandparents died in Essen, Germany. They either were "called home to the fatherland” as Baltic Germans by Hitler before ww2 or they fled from Estonia before the Soviets arrived. But ornella muti denies her mother's heritage in this "love affair" with Putin and claims to be half russian.
According to wiki, Ornella Muti's daughter Naike Rivelli is bisexual - is it okay to invite "such family" to Russia? 😂🙈 As always, rules don't imply to everyone in Russia lol
It’s interesting to hear that the seven years of bad luck thing is so international.
What that???
Sounds like Mr. Worldwide
Yeah because Roman has made it up. He used a figure of speech familiar to the Western audience. It is bad luck but no "seven years" part ☝🤓
@@rishisaini5269dale
Yes in the Netherlands too .
As a person who has lost relatives because of Stalin's decisions,, seeing a dude walking in a destroyed city wearing a stalin jacket is absolutely gut wrenching.
I’m sorry about your family who died. Putin wants to be Stalin so bad, like in Ukraine.
I was just playing this vid at a coffee shop without my buds on and this guy is like, "Is that Roman?!" Love from NYC. You have at least two followers here. 😊
That's awesome. Roman is famous
To the American eye, all this fashion looks dated by about thirty years. The stalin outfit even more so.
You mean to the Western eye, not just the American eye. It’s sad tho because only three years ago before the war Russia was pretty forward with fashion, and I’m not even exaggerating, I was paying attention then. What happens is what Roman explains in this video, the designers (the real talented ones) left. It’s like in Nazi Germany in the 40s, all the real philosophers, writers and artists left. Only the untalented suck ups and Hugo Boss stayed.
@@selmahare yes it is like the late 1930s. Hitler said germanic people were being enslaved in nearby countries so he staged a false flag against poland by attacking a radio station. Russia has done the same today claiming they are reuniting ethnic russians. At the time germany was the leading country of science, fashion, and health in the world. It all became twisted as their laws and government changed. People have a hard time seeing how it can happen again in any country if the people allow it. Nice channel by the way, I to have reincarnation memories I hold onto from childhood. I even have a birthmark on my head to signify the ending of my last life. But to speak from a logical perspective. There are kids all across the world with stories of knowing families, people, places, lovers, without ever visiting these places or people before. Most of these memories are found from outspoken children during the early stages of life before age seven. After age seven it seems we lose those memories forming our new lives and we forget. Atleast that is the common pattern from such families about such stories.
What I noticed most is how bad the models' runway walks were. I don't think their ordinary looks would have mattered so much if it didn't look like they were reluctantly walking the plank.
the runway show having 40 year olds because all the models fled the country is HILARIOUS
If it were only 40 year olds, and not the nearly 60s that are on that runway.
Personally I find that totally fine. The war however,…
You must be very young to think all those women are in their 40s. 😊
yes@@royaltiri
I don't think all models need to be super young or thin. What stood out to me more is how awkward they looked walking down a runway. Like most of them hadn't practiced.
I watched this whole video and I'm still stuck on just how ugly those Balenciaga shoes were.

I think it is quite interesting how this singing man in a Stalin jacket is walking around in this destroyed Ukraïnian town passing by a house with the letters OSCE, the destroyed office or house of the Organisation of Security and Corporation in Europe what gives me a clear signe of the Russian establisments attitude towards Europe, security, and corporation. It can be a looooong war.
Glad I'm not the only person who noticed that... It was very deliberate. It seems some Russians don't want Europeans to be happy and safe.

He can roll on the runway in an office chair in a suit.
Neither was Gerard Depardeau. He would've made a lovely model.

7 years of bad luck for breaking a mirror is a thing here in the us too.
I did a bit of Googling and it looks to originate from ancient Greece and/or the Roman Empire, I guess there was plenty of time for it to percolate into other cultures over the years.
I know the breaking a mirror,never heard staring into it is also bad

The Stalin Coat 😰 damn dude. My country's invasion of Iraq messed me up pretty bad, seeing the bombing campaign live on TV. At the time I thought it couldn't get much bleaker or more cynical than that. The Stalin Coat commercial proved my wrong. Way wrong. It makes me feel physically ill. Holy F*ck.
I shouldn't be surprised about the depths of cynicism and depravity Muscovy sinks to anymore, but it still gets me every time. They have absolutely no shame.

@@mariuschirita187I remember that, not even just t-shirts, after 9/11 flags were plastered every where on every inch of everything just about, I was a kid in the rural south, the forced patriotism spectacle was even more intense there too and it was already insane before. To this day I can sing many “patriotic” propaganda (if you ask me) songs by memory, I remember the little VHS tapes they had with them, they would show America looking beautiful and the flag everywhere, I almost cry thinking about it even though I know it’s BS 😂 it was all meant to brainwash us into thinking America fights wars for our freedom, well going so far is probably part of why most people I know my age are far left and very anti-american. Maybe more and more young Russians will start to challenge Russia seeing this stuff, it’s just way too in your face.
I swear there was a whole year there where we sang “I’m proud to be an American” like everyday at my school 😂
$50 for a t-shirt ain't exactly a bargain in any country!

Pretty standard price for a brand t shirt..
@@masaokakihara9316 Luxury brands, sure. But not others like e.g. Adidas or Nike.
@@InfiniteDeckhandahh $50 is standard for a Nike shirt. If you get the cheap stuff that falls apart in a couple months then you’ll pay less. Nike sb you’re looking at $100 for their decent quality shirts. Though those Putin brand shirts are decent quality. I brought one and had it sent here to Australia and it’s by far better quality than the majority of the U.S. branded shit that’s made in China that’s sold here. And as someone who skates I have Nike sb clothes and you’re looking at $120 for one of their shirts. It’s a standard price and pretty much everything he showed in this video applies to every country. However our propaganda is just normalised to us so we find other countries weird.

Wouldn't it be Team Putin? But of course English is a dying language in ruzzia. So that might be its death rattle 🥴😵☠️
I think either way works. cf. "Dream Team" which as far as I know is "correct" English. In English a person's name (as well as other nouns [not sure if it's in any way limited, off the top of my head] can be used as a prenominal modifier: e.g., "Conan Hair" (a crazy pompadour style, of which Conan O'Brien's hair is the prototypical defining example) or "Bed Head" (the hair style that one wakes up with). But yeah, I guess this gets into the idea of *collocation* : e.g., even though neither "Conan Team" nor "Team Dream" is ungrammatical really, nonetheless they sound odd because "Dream Team" and "Team Conan" are statistically more common. A person learning English has no choice but to memorize these kinds of collocations (of which there are many, of which those two mentioned above were examples), because as far as I know there is no way to derive them from general principles. E.g., "strong coffee" vs "powerful coffee" (the former is more common).
@@robertjenkins6132 Former English teacher here: you are right about both working, BUT to be grammatically correct it needs an article in front of it: “The Putin Team” is fine, “Putin Team” is incorrect. By the same logic we say “Lake Michigan” or “Lake Baikal” but “The Mediterranean Sea” and “The Great Salt Lake” - when the modifier/adjective comes before the noun, it must be preceded by the article “the”. Say the sentence “I saw Great Salt Lake” in your head - it’s hard to hear that without a Russian accent 😅 It reminds me of Melania Trump’s grammatically incorrect “Be Best” campaign! She was also missing the article “the”. And it makes sense - almost none of the Slavic languages have articles, so Slavic language speakers often leave them out or use them incorrectly.
@@adoberoots Is it like: If I say: "I saw great salt lake," it's not a name of that specific place. - It's just me telling I saw a salt lake and thought it was great? But if I say "I saw The Great Salt Lake," it's that specific place, called "The Great Salt Lake" ?
@@sateentuoksuno you would say "I saw a great salt lake". There still needs to be an article there. "I saw great salt lake" just sounds(and is) incorrect.
@@ZTanMURReneRs ok. And you clearly got what was the point of my message...?
BTW, Dmitri Medvedved was recently photographed in a "Stalin coat", so he's the most prominent Russian politician to publicly wear it. To my eyes, that coat looks like a "Sun Zhongshan Yifu", AKA "Mao Jacket", or the Nehru jacket that was briefly popular in the mid-60's.

Slavic countries are INFAMOUS for producing high-level catwalk models its insane that couldn't find anyone. Im guessing that every russian model who actually has an agency rn is either in Paris, London or NYC and are just making sure they book enough jobs to have an excuse not to go home. And ive seen the mirrored body suit a bunch before, its not my favourite look at all but usually the little mirrored sections are very carefully shaped and placed like a mosaic and the flow of the design kind of allows the reflection of light to flow as the body moves. On this the mirrored pieces look like they were placed backstage by three different panicked people on a time crunch with a hot glue gun "don't worry about where it goes just try to cover as much of this shitty Spandex as possible! We have ten minutes til lights up!".
I'm guessing corruption was the name of the game. Hire family members and people willing to give kick backs.

Apud Wikipedia : Ornella Muti was born in Rome to a Neapolitan journalist father and Ilse Renate Krause, a Russian Baltic German sculptor from Estonia. Her maternal grandparents emigrated from Leningrad (now Saint Petersburg, Russia) to Estonia. She does have - hence - a sort of family connection with Russia
Actually, her grandfather (Alexander Wilhelm Krause, a medical doctor) and also her great-grandfather etc. were from Võru (Estonia), but her grandmother (Emma Katharina Krause, born Hauck) was from Saint Petersburg (still from a German family, not Russian). Her grandparents died in Essen, Germany. They either were "called home to the fatherland” as Baltic Germans by Hitler before ww2 or they fled from Estonia before the Soviets arrived.

@@alexking9271 Pro tip: don't believe everything Putin says.
It’s strange that they thought that wasn’t insensitive considering I thought that a lot of Russians didn’t like Stalin.
Putin has tried to rehabilitate the image of Stalin, this is likely part of that effort According to The Moscow Times in 2019 a poll showed 70% of Russians “approved of Stalin’s role in history” The number is likely inflated but I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s not far off, you have to remember old Russians have a nostalgia for the Soviet Union while also harboring a resentment towards the reformists, so it’s been fairly easy for Putin to rehabilitate the image of Stalin unfortunately and undo a lot of the progress of Destalinization carried about more reform minded Soviets like Kruschev to erase Stalin’s personality cult.
I bet at least 30% of why Putin likes Stalin besides wanting to be like him is because he hates Kruschev for giving Crimea to Ukraine
the soviets like everything that is ordered by putin,
That "Stalin jacket" is a Nehru Jacket, popularized by the first Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. The style was part of mod fashion in the 1960s. I never realized Stalin favored that style.
It was popular among left wing and nationalistic leaders in the east, Stalin basically popularized the style, his jacket is an edited version of a WW1 Russian Army tunic called “French” I have one that’s like Mao’s because my Chinese ex-girlfriend bought it for me 😂
I notice Indians wear this style, but since it’s different colors and has patterns usually you don’t instantly notice the resemblance

Seven years of bad luck for breaking a mirror is pretty universal. These things are fun, in Sweden Killing a spider will cause it to start raining. Lighting your cigarette from a candle will kill a sailor. If a black cat crosses the street, you have to spit three times or bad luck will come for you. Some are understandable, like walking underneath a ladder or putting your keys on the table, but some are just so random!
"Killing a spider will cause it to start raining." - Same in Poland. My favourite one is when you see a chimney sweeper you *must* grab a clothing button for luck. Or putting your purse on the ground will make your money run away. :,)
This is interesting. I live in Sweden (came to Scandinavia as a child), but I have never encountered these superstitions. Perhaps because Swedes nowadays don't seem to be superstitious anymore. I have only once encountered someone spitting three times and walking away after seeing my own black cat, and that bloke was a Jehova's Witness who didn't want to talk to me anymore after he saw my cat (as a reward of gratitude, I gave my cat egg yolk and tuna). I guess, black cats bring good luck, indeed. In my original homeland Tatarstan, we have superstitions like that Shaytan will cut off your legs if you swing them while eating, that your mother will die if you click your tongue, that someone in your household will die if you carry a spade on your shoulder, that liars are doomed to lick a hot frying pan in the next world (probably in Jahannam/hell), and my own personal favourite Tatar superstition, that you'll pee yourself if you play with fire. Some of these superstitions are related to our religion Islam, some others of them to Tengriism (our version of Paganism), and some are... well, just there. Most of these superstitions have been used towards children, for upbringing purposes. Nowadays, we Tatars aren't that superstitious anymore (even though my grandfather had a weird sister who was all into that stuff).
@@TuzganaqYeah, nobody believes it, but it's like mythical creatures like Trolls, Näcken, or Älvor. We don't believe, but we know it like a cultural heritage, and can be found in art, music, etc
@matshjalmarsson3008 Yes, John Bauer has taught me that with his beautiful paintings. I've noticed that Swedes have a very Tatar attitude of superstitions. It's more like a cultural heritage than an actual belief. Among russians (and believe me, I have experienced both russia, the russian colonialism of Tatarstan and the russian diaspora abroad), I've noticed that superstitions are taken very seriously. They get truly irate if you, for example, whistle indoors (because then you'll run out of money, or something similar). So if you accidentally encounter the Z kind of a russian somewhere indoors (I hope it will never happen), you can always start to actively whistle and see his/her reaction. 😁

Oh okay! I'm from Canada and when I was in Cuba in January I seen few a Russian people there too on vacation.

He’s always said he was the best in business, and come on, scamming that much your political cult members really shows he wasn’t lying!
My favorite part of the mugshot thing was it had the phrase "Never surrender" or something along those lines. Right next to the photo of him that he surrendered for
@@lif6737oh and don’t forget the maga clothing. America doesn’t sell their propaganda merch at all do they 😂

Did anyone else get the impression the face of Ruzzian Fazhion is Cruella de Vil? Waiting for the evening wear made of puppies and broken dreams.
They should rename the Russian army to Putin Team. Would be more fitting than clothing.
Thanks! Excellent reporting with your inimitable sense of humor. Loved it! Can't wait to hear about Portugal!
Larisa Dolina looks a lot like the Pumpkin monster from the movie Trick R Treat.
Her views and actions are even more monstrous.
That fashion show was an affront to me eyes. I don't like body shaming, but Larisa Dolina's 5-head scares the hell out of me!
It’s not that they are heavy…they all just look really weird, like they got bad plastic surgery. It’s disturbing.
@davidradtke160 Most of them have actually chosen to go under the knife for face lifts, etc. It's true when it comes to Anastasia Volochkova, and it's especially true when it comes to Larisa Dolina. I don't know how much money she has spent on plastic surgery, but it's a whole lot. There's a reason why she's close to 70 in age and still has almost no wrinkles on her face.
I found the combination of broken mirrors, darkness & the Russian Flag on somebody way past her prime, seemingly desperately trying to rehash some of her past glory a rather powerful image. - Just not the way it was intended.
Thanks Roman! Your mixture of comedy and informative insight into русский мир is amazing!
Nice!
THIS IS CONTENT... Roman i guess you just found a gold mine with informing the world about Russian cringe and bizzares. Thanks and upload moooore 😀
Реклама костюма (из) Сталина под стёбную песню Елизарова -- выглядит как что-то придуманное в 'Generation П' Пелевина На скольких слоях постиронии мы сейчас?
Kind of ironic that the Z crowd, who won't stop crowing about "traditional family values", featured Anastasia Volochkova. The last news item I saw her in was all about her new sausage boy "Ferrari".
And also, all her erotic dances with the ex-Ukrainian actor Nikita Dzhigurda (who's also very Z), the wacko who sounds like a whole lifeline of tobacco addiction... 😁
They lost so much talent when they could have just not gone after their neighbors it would be a very happening place for fashion and stuff. Even those featured people who are “in favor” have that unsure look in their eyes like their instincts speak to the contrary….
We have 7 years of bad luck when you break a mirror here too 😳 🇺🇸
Been married 14 years don’t remember braking 2 mirrors
@@andrewcampbell7476 🥁 you win the internet today
Your fashion narration is fantastic! I especially liked the one about looking into a broken mirror Thanks for the enjoyment and laughs!!
I am reminded of the Wendy's "soviet fashion show" tv commercial from the 1980's. Funny stuff.
It's so good to hear Roman using the actual word WAR. But, please take care. FSB has long arms.
I loved this video! Those fashions look hideous! Interesting...😊❤
Ay dude you look refreshed and more relaxed, good on you I'm happy for it
The lady wearing the broken mirrors....they were actually full sized intact mirrors until she did her make up.....😂
This was a very interesting episode, love learning such stuff! Thanks Roman!
Wearing a Stalin coat is as distasteful as wearing a Hitler coat
It's like those Russian soldiers wearing patches of Stalin on one shoulder and Jesus on the other.
Good post. Hope life in Portugal is going well!
I’m speechless. Great work done by you!
Awesome. I love watching what you put together. ❤
Fashionism.
Good one! 😂😂😂
You can't even spell it
@@user-nl6bv2dg3v He sure can, he invented the word! 🤣🤣🤣
@@user-nl6bv2dg3v can you spell portmanteau, Vladimir?
Ok, but really: How ugly can shoes be? Apparently you need 1250.-$ to find out...
Absolutely. Klumpfuß-Ästhetik. - Clubfoot esthetics. Current high-priced fashion is making fun of the unfortunate and deprived...
"I'm not exactly a Puritan or anything" .... that made me laugh
Cheers buddy, love these videos 👍
Roman's preview with Z in colors of ribbon of Saint George is so 2022 thing
Holly ship that stalin cosplay made me vomit in my mouth...
Looks like Babooshka fashion show lol
That was one of the first things I noticed about Russia the two (and only) times I was there: The celebrity class (and immediately adjacent/overlapping mafia) has far less than 0 (zero) idea of the value of money! They will ask for 100 times the market price of an item without batting an eye, because that is "what it costs" in their estimation. The prices for fashionable products have no relation to the price of bread or petrol or even houses. The question of what planet they think they inhabit is the first thing that comes to mind. The second is why they are surprised that no masses of people want to move there and live with them.
I will bet money that you're going to see kanye west rocking one of those stalin jackets soon.
Can’t believe Larisa Dolina actually did a music video duet with Gloria Gaynor singing the famous hit song “ I Will Survive “ I think back in the 80s or early 90s .
Thanks for the detailed analysis man :)
Always love it when the King of Cringe, Shaman pops up.
