I’m absolutely in love with these Russy Valenki ‘scoots,’ a term that may have been coined by the clever Style Bubble. I mean, just look at theme! Flattering and completely unique (at least, I’ve never come across anything like them before), they are a perfect fashion statement piece for the spring/summer months.
Combining two Russian costume traditions, Russy Valenki focuses his designs on the Valenki felt boot and the Pavloposad woolen and silk shawls. Once they hit stores, I’m sure the Russy Valenki scoots will be a hit.
