Vladivostok bow-tie designer launches new line of jumpers

8 January 2015

Vladivostok-based entrepreneur Igor Karklin has launched a new line of turtleneck jumpers featuring Cyrillic embroidery around the neck. The line is the second venture by the 22-year-old former economics student, who entered the fashion scene in 2013 with a range of bow ties he designed and created himself.

The new jumpers, with their single, unisex design in black, are decorated only with words including bozhe (god), mir (peace) and chest (honour) around the turtleneck.

The jumpers are available at stores in Vladivostok, St Petersburg and Moscow.
