All About Kira Plastinina

Kira Plastinina has already become a popular figure in Russia. The fashion designer has a chain of more than 30 clothing stores and she is becoming popular day by day. Even Kira Plastinina is planning to launch “Kira Plastinina shop” in America this year. She is the chief designer of the shop and works with team. Her brand is also getting popular across Russia.

Well, you may not find anything attractive in the lines given above. Yes, there are many promising fashion designers throughout the world who are coming out with their creative skill and talent. However, what is attractive or different regarding Kira Plastinina is that she is a 15 year old girl who is in 10th grade at school.

Transworldnews reported:

Plastinina, 15, has had her own brand for three years and it is quickly picking up worldwide. Kira Plastinina Style is one of the fastest-growing fashion brands in Russia, boasting 40 stores in Russia, the Ukraine, and Kazakhstan.

Plastinina also has a top-selling Kira perfume and the backing of Paris Hilton, who has modeled in Moscow show.

The brand will now venture into the U.S. with her first 10 stores to hit early in 2008 to grow to 50 by the end of the year.

Kira Plastinina is the daughter of millionaire father, Sergei Plastinina, who is the co-founder Russia’s largest dairy and juice producer, Wimm-Bill-Dann. Kira Plastinina had a good hand at drawing from her childhood. Having seen the talent of her daughter, Sergei Plastinina came up with the idea of launching a clothing store asked Kira Plastinina to take the helm creative side of the shop.

There are many who think that it was possible for Kira Plastinina to handle such a big-budget project because of her millionaire father and her task in the shop is of an overseer. However, she has claimed that she makes most of the designs of the shop.

Huliq reported:

In a recent interview at her company’s headquarters in Moscow, Plastinina admitted that her father’s wealth had made the stores possible, but stressed that she wasn’t just a rich girl looking for attention.

“It’s not like I just went to my dad and said, ‘I want a store,’ and he gave me a store with my name on it and I don’t do anything,” said Plastinina, who was dressed in a pink and purple top.

“I’m always coming to work, and my thoughts are constantly absorbed in work. I always think about work, day and night. Sometimes I even draw designs in school.”

So, there is no way to think that she has no talent and her fame came only through her father. Paris Hilton is the fashion idol of Kira Plastinina who recently invited Hilton to be present in her fashion show in Moscow Fashion Week. There is rumor that it was a $2 million deal between Kira Plastinina and Paris Hilton, for which Paris Hilton attended her fashion show and made her opinion regarding the designs of Kira Plastinina.

When asked what the reason was behind the invitation of Paris Hilton, Kira Plastinina said that she had interested to know Hilton’s opinion regarding her collection.

ABC reported:

When Plastinina held her fashion show at Moscow Fashion Week, Hilton was flown over as the guest of honor (reportedly for $2 million). Plastinina gushes when she talks about Hilton's visit.

"I really like her and I think she's an amazing person and I think she's really cool," she said. Her reason for inviting Hilton: "I really like her style and I was interested to know what's her opinion about my collection."

There were many who tried to insist Plastinina to become a singer using the fame of his father. However, she does not want to shift to anything else, except to become just a fashion designer. Kira Plastinina has plan to study on fashion design at the Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design, from where many world class fashion designers received their degrees.

What made me more surprised is her maturity, which is not of a typical teenage girl. Many would say that had her father not been there, she could not reach where she is today. Yes, it is true, but it does not mean that Kira Plastinina has lack of talent in fashion design, because it is a creative area where no body can survive unless he or she has something is him or her. I would not be surprised, if Kira Plastinina becomes a one of the most popular and quality clothing brands in the world in near future.

    um, yeah...except for teh reported fact that she doesn't design any of the clothes, she just looks at teh designs given to her and approves them. Please, we don't need another tasteless heiress polluting the fashion world with ugly designs.

    I agree with anonymous...most girls would never be able to design a whole fashion line and keep track of a whole business even with a rich dad! if you actually go look at her fashion shows on youtube and stuff they are good, she definitely has creative ideas and I think people should stop criticising. but hey, MTV is doing a show on her so I guess we'll all see what the truth is!

    Yes, Kira, I'm sure that your Daddy's millions had absolutely nothing to do with your success. I can't think of why her designs sell. It's garbage. But that's coming from a fashion point of view. Maybe the whole "cheap pre-teen hooker" look is in this year?
    And, ps, anonymous, "most girls would never be able to design a whole fashion line..." Do you know how a fashion designer works? She sits in class (not that she needs an education because Daddy will provide) drawing "designs" then has these designs shipped off to China, or has some cheap Russian seamstresses sew it all up with her label on it. I was designing sing I was 12. I know many girls who, if they had the resources, would be able to design collections.

    She has no talent and no designer skills at all.Her father's money do everything for her.There are so many talented designers out there and they can not compete with Kira's garbage because money rule this world.Hilton and Plastinina are two alike ones.Both useless and rich.
