A sunbeam in a suit

My invented character, Zhenya (Evgenia), comes out to you for review. An energetic, cheerful, purposeful and intelligent lady. Hobbies: dancing, costumes, and showing yourself brightly in public. She dotes on theaters and sees herself in this art. I hope you'll give her a round of applause. :3

I'm going to slowly embody my characters so that they don't stand idle in my brain, heh. It's been a long time since I got this image of a "gentleman + good girl" and gradually it overgrown with other characters, their relationships, etc.

So you have yet to see drawings with other characters. =U wU=

Yves Saint Laurent Fall/Winter Runway 1995

Yves Saint Laurent is widely credited with popularizing the women’s suit, specifically through his revolutionary design of Le Smoking tuxedo in 1966. While women had worn tailored suits before (notably designed by Gabrielle “Coco” Chanel and other designers), Saint Laurent’s Le Smoking was the first to elevate the woman's suit to high fashion and position it as a symbol of empowerment, sophistication, and rebellion against gender norms.

Saint Laurent believed clothing could be a tool for liberation. He wanted to redefine women's fashion by blurring gender norms, giving women the freedom to embody strength traditionally associated with men's attire while retaining their femininity.

Yves Saint Laurent was also a trailblazer in advocating for diversity in fashion and was instrumental in elevating Black models on the global stage. He was one of the first major designers to prominently feature Black women in his runway shows and campaigns, challenging the Eurocentric standards of beauty that dominated the fashion industry.

“Yves Saint Laurent was the first person to put me in French Vogue. I will always be grateful to him for supporting me when no one else would.” — Naomi Campbell
