The long-awaited presentation of HORIZONS v2.0 took place at the TsentrSvet showroom, unveiling the second chapter of the collaborative project between fashion designer and founder of the ANNA MAMAEVA fashion house, Anna Mamaeva, and architect, designer, and digital artist Pavel Lopanov.
Bringing together fashion and digital art, the presentation unfolded as a unified artistic statement in which the image transcends its static existence, becoming tactile, dynamic, and autonomous.
HORIZONS continues its exploration of the threshold between form and perception. While the first chapter—presented nearly a year earlier at Sinara Art Gallery—focused on translating digital imagery into physical matter, this new iteration shifts its attention to movement: to the moment when art begins to inhabit fabric and the human body.
Designed as a complete wardrobe spanning all four seasons, the collection reflects Anna Mamaeva's vision of fashion as a coherent system rather than a sequence of seasonal releases. Marking a significant milestone in the history of the ANNA MAMAEVA brand, the runway introduced its first-ever menswear line, featuring impeccably tailored overcoats paired with handcrafted knitwear. This debut suggests a promising new direction for the fashion house and one that is expected to continue evolving through its ongoing collaboration with Pavel Lopanov.
A defining signature of the ANNA MAMAEVA fashion house has long been its exceptional craftsmanship in natural fur and silk. In this collection, long-haired fur, meticulously embroidered onto delicate chiffon, is reimagined through subtle gradient transitions, resulting in exclusive pieces that blur the boundaries between textile, colour, and sculptural form.
Equally characteristic are the ethereal silk dresses and layered chiffon ensembles that have become synonymous with Anna Mamaeva's summer collections. Here they unfold through nuanced chromatic transitions, moving seamlessly from luminous pearl whites to rich burgundy reds, allowing colour itself to become an expressive material.
Alongside traditional natural silk and fur, the collection introduces contemporary technical textiles with architectural structure and sculptural stability. These materials redefine familiar garments—tops, skirts, and trousers—through precise silhouettes that reveal an architectural approach to tailoring.
The fashion house's longstanding expertise in knitwear reaches a new level of refinement through intricate compositions of hand and machine knitting. Complex interwoven yarns generate continuous colour transitions within a single garment—an exceptionally demanding technique that transforms knitwear into a medium of visual expression.
HORIZONS is not about trends, nor is it defined by seasons. It explores the moment when form becomes experience, when clothing transcends function to shape perception itself. At that threshold, fashion ceases to be merely an object of observation and becomes a lived spatial experience
