Aliona Doletskaya

Aliona Doletskaya is a major icon in Russian fashion. She was the founding EIC of Russian Vogue and is now EIC of cult magazine Interview in both Russia and Germany. I really admire her artistic drive and sense of passion towards her job. She reminds me so much of Carine Roitfeld in this aspect, both in her work and in her own personal style. Even though the first edition of interview Germany isn't yet out, Interview Russia is beyond amazing! And I adore how in the video she says that when she was younger she wanted to be a cosmonaut. I'm almost certain that was every Soviet's child dream aspiration!
(Plus, how fabulous is that accent! So British, you would never know she is Russian!)
