Using unsettling [horror film techniques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-scent-of-a-nightmare) that elicit emotions of terror and fear, Sergei uses his wild imagination to bring a [spooky collection of fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir) that explores mind-boggling, puzzling and mysterious concepts.

I think Fashion Designers Abroad should think along these lines and explore this remarkable [horror-film fashion show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/scary-good-campaign) idea more in the future. The video takes place in Prince Kochubey's Palace which is located Saint Petersburg, Russia.
