As the Iron Curtain was lifting, the Western ways of dressing were
getting more exposure through the movies and tourists. As you can see
the envious faces on the background, foreigners did stand out.
The funniest thing is that the Soviet fashion is very hard to break
into time periods. Apart from separating the pre-war era fashion
from the post war (the later one being non-existent), the bulk of it
stretches for over 40 years right up to the 90s.
