Whether designing his own sell-out collections or walking in runway shows, fashion designer/photographer Gosha Rubchinskiy stays busy. His photography has intertwined with his fashion work in the past, and his latest book, titled Youth Hotel, does just that.
Aiming his lens at Russia's modern-day youth—a favorite for Rubchinskiy—the book "presents a picture of Russia as it is now." Rubchinskiy told i-D:
For Rubchinskiy superfans in the London area, count yourself lucky; the designer/photographer will be appearing in-person at London's Dover Street Market to sign copies of his book. If you're really looking to flourish, keep your eyes peeled for a 1-of-30 vinyl record that will accompany Youth Hotel. Filled with tracks from techno producer Buttechno, the record is the soundtrack from Rubchinskiy's Fall/Winter 2015 runway show.
If you're trying to get your hands on the book, head over to Dover Street Market (the store's New York, London, and Ginza locations), and the Comme des Garçons Trading Museum in Paris on Oct. 15. With only 500 books available worldwide, this is not something we'd recommend sleeping on.
