Elena Shatalova is based in Voronech, Russia and is a graduate from the Institution Of Art &Amp; Culture. The designer's collections are produced in her home country and often pay homage to modern works of art.
When examining the designer's latest line, entitled "Fluid", modern art plays a big role in its vivid, visual inspiration. Mixing contrasting color combinations with 3D elements that resemble splattered paint, Elena Shatalova creates wearable art works that embody an eccentrically elegant air.
The pieces range from sculptural coat garments, printed trousers and over-sized jackets that combine prints, sculptural elements and cocooned silhouettes together. The pieces are reflective of the Russian designer's signature aesthetic that successfully makes wearable art elegant rather than purely theatrical.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- Digital Art-inspired Fashion
- The combination of digital art and fashion can be explored to create visually striking designs that push boundaries.
- Organic Forms
- Designers can draw inspiration from organic forms found in nature to create unique and eye-catching fashion pieces.
Sectors Adopting This

- Art
- Artists can explore new mediums and collaborations with fashion designers to showcase their work in a new way.
- Digital Design
