The Russian brand of accessories Radical Chic and the Moscow Kremlin Museums have launched a joint line of silk scarves and textile accessories. The product designs are inspired by the works of the famous artist Nadia Léger.
The Nadia Leger jewelry collection, created in 1970 in France, is dedicated to the flight of the first man into space. It consists of 37 items - brooches, rings and watches, which in 1980 were transferred to the Moscow Kremlin Museums by the USSR Ministry of Culture.
Designers have created two silk squares "Precious Cosmos" and "Polaris" in several colors. The artists preserved the Suprematist style of jewelry and gave it a modern sound, using the latest drawing technique, digital image processing and seasonal palette.
Recognizable elements of brooches are preserved in the designs of scarves. The scarf "Precious Space" used "Constellation Ursa Major", "Star Alkor", "Constellation Arrow", "Constellation Cygnus", "Moon". In the car "Polaris" - "Polar Star", "Star Deneb", "Constellation Aries", "Constellation Ursa Minor".
“For the artists of the studio, it was a new creative experience, to get the opportunity to examine in detail the jewelry made by Nadya Leger. When you hold such things in your hands, the rhythm, the proportion of the elements, the innovation of the technique of performance, suggest you further solutions in new materials. Transferring sculptural works to fabric, we tried, first of all, to convey their volume, the nobility of the material and create new compositions on silk that expand the artist’s vision,” says Alexandra Kaloshina, founder of the Radical Chic brand.
Accessories are presented in souvenir shops of the Moscow Kremlin Museums, in Radical Chic boutiques and in the brand's online store. The cost of scarves 90x90 - 17 rubles, 300x70 - 70 rubles.
