The new season of MBFW Russia was inaugurated by an artistic crafts show called Linen and Lacework with Support of the Russia's Ministry of Industry and Trade. 19 Russian folk artistic crafts entities, among which were Krestetskaya Strochka factory, Vologda lacework factory and Tarusa artistic embroidery factory, manufacturers such as Yelets Lace Folk Craft, Karelskie Uzory, Gorodetskaya Zolotnaya Vyshivka, Shuya garment factory and others presented their traditional linen collections for the summer season. Among the guests of the show was Gulnaz Kadyrova, Deputy Minister of Industry and Trade.

      Linen suits and maxiskirts were harmonically combined with long shirts embroidered in colorful ornaments; cotton tunics and dresses with sky blue inserts were enhanced by light elegant mantles, handwoven lacework collars, as well as finest feather and red linen jackets. The garments are manufactured using different embroidery techniques, appliqué and separate artistic crafts patterns used in accessories, such as Pavlovoposadsk kerchiefs, cordovan embroidery wash-leather purse, Zhostovo mother-of-pearl earrings and handwoven Gorodetsk kerchiefs. The models' hair styles were decorated with white lacework ribbons, and the high point of the catwalk show was the heavy cotton wedding dress and bridal veiling by Vologda lacework factory.
