Perhaps many people, when talking about Alla Pugacheva, immediately remember the unusual style of her clothes, which she chose for her performances 30-40 years ago. Many were interested in watching her robes.
But do you know where the history of this style began? It turns out that the very first robe for Pugacheva was invented by Vyacheslav Zaitsev. Now we will show you what he looked like. We will also tell you why the singer preferred such unusual clothes.
Pugacheva's robes: where it all began
The first hoodie was sewn for Alla Pugacheva’s performance at a song festival, which was held in the Polish city of Sopot in August 1978.
Before this event, Alla Pugacheva turned to Zaitsev to order some interesting outfit from him that could add a little mystery to her image without depriving it of its femininity. Vyacheslav invited her to perform in a bright robe.
It is worth noting that the outfit in which Pugacheva performed “Shakespeare’s Sonnet No. 90” at that festival was liked by the public. Moreover, it was even called “the main dress in the singer’s career.” And Alla Borisovna looked like this in it.

At 70 years old, wearing a mini is easy! The stage queen wore white short shorts and matching Dior sneakers for 50 thousand rubles. The singer has not only become even slimmer: her wardrobe has become much more youthful.
“The robes, recognizable throughout the post-Soviet space, are a thing of the past, and today Alla Pugacheva regularly surprises with her extravagant images,” comments fashion historian Anatol Vovk . — Coco Chanel once said: to be in demand, you need to be different. Alla Pugacheva also adheres to this rule. Thanks to her work and talent, the singer not only won millions of fans, but was also able to maintain her star status, remaining in the musical and fashion trend for many years.

“No matter how much the whole world goes crazy for minimalistic jewelry, choosing thin chains and small pendants, Alla Borisovna goes against the rules here too, choosing a massive geometric necklace with long large chains,” says jewelry designer Vlad Torkhov . — The necklace fits perfectly into the star’s sporty style and goes well with a checkered shirt with a flirty neckline.

— Similar bows are the favorite accessory of director Nikita Mikhalkov’s wife, Tatyana. Over the years, the black bow has become Tatyana Evgenievna’s calling card, says promoter Alina Krasnaya . “However, this is not the first time Alla Borisovna complements her hair with a bow. She first appeared in it in the late 80s at a concert in Chernobyl.
Today, Pugacheva no longer wears a bow under a shapeless robe, as in the 80s. The slimmer figure allows the singer to appear in fitted clothes.
“One of the most important techniques that Alla Pugacheva demonstrates is the shirt dress,” notes Anatol Vovk. — The shirt dress, once created by designer Diane von Furstenberg, can still be considered a classic to this day. It’s better to choose a vertical option, like on Alla Borisovna’s dress. This print allows you to make your figure even slimmer.
Correct neckline

— One of Alla Borisovna’s latest appearances includes a lace blouse. This is the right neckline, revealing the shoulders,” says fashion historian Anatol Vovk. — The neckline does not always have to be extremely open, as, for example, with Anna Semenovich. One of the most elegant necklines is the boat neckline, which is chosen by the Diva of the Russian stage. Light blue jeans, which are the basis of a basic wardrobe, and stylish light shoes complement the romantic image of the star.
Baseball caps spotted in Hollywood

— Many Hollywood stars wear baseball caps, from Bruce Willis to Madonna. I put on my dark glasses, and that’s it—you can blend in with the crowd. Apparently, Alla Borisovna took a look at the style of her Western colleagues,” suggested promoter Alina Krasnaya.
“This type of headdress is perceived by many as part of the youth image, and in vain,” says Anatol Vovk. — The baseball cap has no age or gender restrictions. A dark knitted baseball cap is the logical completion of images in the spirit of street style - street fashion. A bright red tracksuit and stylish frames once again prove the singer’s ability to stay on trend and be modern.
Yellow trousers for slimness

“A trouser suit made of compressed chiffon with a flowing cape, loose trousers - all this is very stylish and beautiful,” says designer Ksenia Knyazeva . — The cape in combination with trousers elongates the silhouette, adding height and thinness to Alla Borisovna. The image is thought out to the smallest detail. True, the shoes (Gucci shoes for 70 thousand rubles) do not really go with the trousers. I think Alla Borisovna chose these shoes because a comfortable last is important to her.
“Alla Borisovna complemented the chick look with a massive necklace-chain,” says jewelry designer Vlad Torkhov. — This is a slightly outdated trend of past years. However, this accessory does not look archaic on the singer. I wouldn’t be surprised if after this appearance of Alla Borisovna such chains come back into fashion.

The hoodie has become a “trick”
After her performance in Sopot, Alla Pugacheva began to appear on stage in overalls more and more often. One of the fans suggested that the Diva chooses this style of dress only for the reason that she has no desire to think about the outfit during a performance. And wearing a robe is easy and simple, as it does not ride up.
It is known that not only Zaitsev, but also other famous fashion designers sewed robes for Pugacheva. Thus, several such dresses for the Prima Donna were created by Valentin Yudashkin (around the beginning of the 90s) and Andrei Sharov, whom Alla warned that experiments with her outfit were possible, but only within the confines of the robe.
The end of the “era of robes” came at the moment when Alla Borisovna began collaborating with fashion designer Alisher, who convinced the artist that she had very beautiful legs. This was in the early 2000s.

Why the hoodie?
Many believe that Alla Borisovna often performed in robes only because she wanted to hide her plumpness. However, this is not quite true.
Vyacheslav Zaitsev noted that the problem was not so much the excess weight, but that the singer was simply embarrassed about her body and tried not to show it. According to him, the hoodie became an excellent outfit option for the Prima Donna. He brought not only femininity to her image, but also mystery.

How 71-year-old Alla Pugacheva “rejuvenated” by changing her wardrobe
Diva's lifehacks will suit everyone without exception.

Alla Pugacheva became famous not only for her strong voice, but also for her passion for black robes. At 30, the Diva looked 50 because she chose the wrong clothes. With the advent of her young husband, the singer’s wardrobe changed dramatically: visually, the singer got rid of 20 years. The editors of “Let’s Ride” found Alla Borisovna’s life hacks that helped her “rejuvenate.” Diva's techniques are suitable even for pensioners.
As soon as Pugacheva took off her concert robe, “mom” jeans . Such clothes are universal, since light denim favorably emphasizes the dignity of the figure. Alla Borisovna is not shy about revealing her legs, so she allows herself to wear jeans with slits even on stage. To look slim, the singer wears a voluminous top, emphasizing her waist with a wide belt. Alla Borisovna knows that even at 71 you can look young.

Classic "leather jacket" . The diva combines such jackets with elegant dresses, which adds daring to the look. In combination with leather pants or jeans, a leather jacket will make the look youthful, without a touch of mothballs. Round “basilio” glasses, which Pugacheva loves, are appropriate even after 40 years.
Long jacket . Alla Pugacheva combines the item with miniskirts and blouses in monochrome. A single color scheme makes the Diva visually taller and slimmer. This stylistic technique is suitable for women with imperfect proportions. And to divert attention from her problematic neck, the singer complements her looks with laconic jewelry on a long chain.

In place of berets and hats, Madame Broshkina’s wardrobe was replaced by a “barefoot” cap . The headdress can be easily combined with evening dresses and casual style looks. The cap visually elongates the “bulldog” cheeks that are characteristic of ladies over 50.

For fans of Alla Pugacheva, every performance of the singer is a gift. Indeed, lately Alla Borisovna has been devoting herself entirely to her family.
Let us remind you: in 2009, AB announced her retirement from the stage, finished touring, but reserved the right to record new hits and create original projects (such as the famous “Christmas Meetings”).
Emin Agalarov negotiated with Alla Borisovna for a year, but managed to persuade the star to a creative evening in Baku.
“And then I came to visit, played with the children, agreed with Alla Borisovna and Maxim (Galkin was the host of his wife’s evening at the Heat festival and sang the imperishable AB “Harlekino” very well), Emin told reporters.
Romantic style suits the prima donna

Alla Pugacheva, as you know, knows how to make a splash. The Diva came out of the dressing room in an unusual doll outfit the color of an antique rose. Since Alla Pugacheva is now in excellent shape, the “woman who sings” flashed her tanned cleavage not without pride.
To be honest, I don’t remember Alla Borisovna in such low-cut outfits. This romantic style suits the singer very well. The artist looked truly royal: the “imperial” orders on her chest made her look truly solemn.
As it turned out, this dress was made for Pugacheva by her personal stylist, famous singer and designer Alisher.
“Alla Borisovna brought a lot of dresses to Baku,” the author of the outfit, Alisher, told KP. — Alla Borisovna looked very sexy in this dress. A real empress! I made the “Orders” myself from Swarovski stones. And I made the dress in just 24 hours. 60 meters of mesh were used just for the skirt!
The corset was altered three times so that it would fit Alla Borisovna perfectly. She had already flown to Baku, and Dima Bilan took the corset from me in the evening and gave it to AB. I am happy that Alla Borisovna chose this dress for her evening.
Having sung several of her old songs and a new duet with Maxim Galkin “Under One Flag,” the singer admitted that she was happily married.
- When I feel good, I don’t even want to sing. I have been incredibly happy for quite a few years. But I can’t go out and not sing about my happiness. “It was necessary to go out to the audience and thank heaven for these happy days,” Alla Pugacheva admitted to her fans. “Of course, I was worried before the performance. I'm already out of the habit. But it's wonderful. I really liked how other artists sang my songs today: Kristina (“Goodbye, summer!”), Kirkorov (“Three Happy Days”), Dima Bilan (“Loving Don’t Renounce”), Ani Lorak (“The Woman Who Sings”) ").

Journalists asked Alla Pugacheva what you gave to your grandson Nikita Presnyakov for his wedding.
— What do they usually give for a wedding? Money! - Alla Borisovna shared with the “sharks of the pen”.
Pugacheva also spoke about how she endured the flight and the Baku heat.
— Doctors forbade me to come here because of the heat, but I really like this festival, that’s why I’m here. I haven't flown on an airplane for many years. Surprisingly, they flew wonderfully,” said Alla Pugacheva.
