With a new year comes new fashion news, and in the current recession it's not good. In October of last year Kira Plastinina spoke at one of the Teen Vogue Fashion U seminars,
hers aptly named: You're Never too Young to Succeed", seeing as how the 16 year old was making waves on the fashion scene and had brought 12 of her stores to the U.S. While her stores in Russia are still doing well it seems that us North Americans are going to have to say bye bye to the stylings of this teenager as her U.S. division recently filed for Bankruptcy. Her stores in Russia and Ukraine will remain open but I guess she's still a little too young to succeed on this side of the world
. Here's to hope that when this recession is over she'll be older and wiser and be ready to bounce back in the U.S. market. By then hopefully she'll have figured out how to make art, glamour and sporty work together without putting cute little phrases all over her clothes that scream tiny teenage twits (okay that may be a little harsh but I can't wear those things anymore or else I'm trying to pass as someone between the ages of 13 and 17). I found one thing in the entire store during her shopping event that didn't make me look 5 years younger and from that one item I can say the girl has promise.
