The National Centre RUSSIA has launched a competition to create a look featuring a traditional Russian accessory. As the grand prize, participants can win a kokoshnik personally selected by Russian singer and actress Tatyana Kurtukova at the Department Store of the National Centre RUSSIA. This element of national costume, combining centuries-old traditions with modern fashion trends, will be the perfect finishing touch to any outfit.

To take part in the competition, entrants should send photos of their stylish looks they would like to complement with the kokoshnik via the Telegram bot. The winner will be personally chosen by Tatyana Kurtukova. The competition offers not only the chance to receive an exclusive accessory, but also to creatively reinterpret traditional elements of national costume in a contemporary style.
