I had promised to stop harping on about all things Russian, but I just have to give a quick mention to something I spotted in Russian Vogue while I was there. To celebrate the magazine's tenth anniversary, top designers were each asked to design a matrioshka doll which was then auctioned for charity. The results are too cute for words and a little more shapely than the stick insects that usually appear on the magazine's pages. My personal favourites are the mini-Miuccia in Prada lace and the YSL babe with her blunt bob. Needless to say, they are all infinitely chicer than the rubbish dollies I bought on a market stall in Moscow for 80 roubles.
