This parliament has turned out to be colorful not only as a political representation, strict cuts are no longer respected
Npit nothing more sinister than men in black suits at dawn.
This cult phrase was uttered by the late Ginyo Ganev, nicknamed the Man Parliament, when he saw deputies in tight dark suits lining up in the morning queue in the parliamentary cafe.
In those days, every newcomer to the National Assembly building was in a hurry to put on a strict jacket –
to look like
that he has become
important person
Times have changed, many newcomers to politics have played out quickly, others have been forgotten before their suits are tightened. Many of the ladies in parliament wore dresses the value of an annual teacher’s salary, others never learned to dress differently from a socialist teacher on September 15th.
Today’s parliamentarians are the biggest new wave to enter the historic building on Narodno Sabranie Square since tsarist times. And since
the new wave
come to the beat of 7/8,
denying canons, most of its representatives try to demonstrate that the vanity of this life in strict suits is foreign to them. So to speak, Slavi’s deputies also make him look more relaxed, although their clothes show respect for the institution.
The 46th parliament is definitely colorful – both politically and as a color in the plenary hall. The bright pink floral print of the charming doyen Mika Zaykova, in which the 79-year-old economist opened the solemn first meeting on Wednesday, completely fit into his spirit.
Rather, office visions are also demonstrated by the potential main partners of “There is such a people” – the deputies from “Democratic Bulgaria”. Moreover, most of them come by subway to parliament. And in the spirit of the pandemic new time, they, like the deputies from “Stand up BG! We are coming “, they wear masks in the parliament and branded with their party logo.
A kind of campaign against vanity was launched by the new and most popular person (judging by the more than 7,000 voting preferences won) in the ranks of DB – the famous vlogger and founder of the platform “Dear Mother” Elisaveta Belobradova.
Known on Facebook as Letiashtata, Kozzila Erato has placed an ad in a popular group on the social network for selling old branded clothes that she is looking for costumes for the parliament.
“As a mother of many children as well
I failed to set aside
BGN 400 thousand for clothes,
because the children
have to walk
of what not
– entertaining, painting, to the pastry shop, and for me there is hardly any lev left for new adidas “, she begins with irony her request to the girls from the group to help her.” I’m looking for a few dresses with which to become a fashion icon for example and I am not exposing you ”, is the message of the new MP.
Belobradova’s requirements are “no ruffles, lace, shiny, flowing palettes from purple to brown, rolled up sleeves, shoulders, puff sleeves, pink temptations.” And a few postscripts like “Ted Baker, Hugo Boss, aw” and “Don’t skin me.”
Experienced Tatiana Doncheva also achieved style with frugality. The eloquent lawyer and deputy speaker of parliament appeared at the opening with a very impressive bag, one-on-one with a model from the latest collection of the luxury brand Givenchy. Its price on the website of the French company is close to BGN 4,000. However, it turned out that Doncheva was actually buying custom-made bags in Bulgaria, the price of which was many times lower.
The former regional minister from the “Borisov 2” cabinet, Lilyana Pavlova, found herself in a similar case in 2017. It swirled exactly the day before the formation of Borissov’s third government. It all started with a publication of the then publicist of Cornelia Ninova, who noticed that Pavlova moved only with bags of the brands “Chanel”, “Dior” and “Prada”. That is why the ex-prime minister did not make her his joke, but entrusted her with the preparation for the Bulgarian presidency of the Council of the EU. Pavlova herself told the media that she did not have bags over 200 euros, and she could not afford such for 10,000 levs. Then Vezhdi Rashidov revealed the truth –
that she bought
the two in question
bags in Istanbul
and they look like
original baby
stamps,
and he personally took her then to the factory of an acquaintance of his in the Turkish metropolis.
Of course, the question arises as to whether it is at all permissible for a legislator to use imitations. Because this, in addition to bad taste, is a crime against the intellectual property of the designers of these bags.
On her first day, the debutant from “There is such a people” Katerina Ryahova made an impression. In the previous parliament she was the party’s publicist, she also worked in Slavi’s show. He appeared in a clean pink suit, but with a very lively cut. Some even commented that she could run for the title of “most beautiful MP”, at least for this parliament, and yellower sites immediately made her “the sexiest MP”.
There is no official label for clothing in the Bulgarian Parliament. Everyone wears what they like – from the smallest bags to the largest and from the lowest heels to the highest. The order to make the bag the same color as the shoes has long been discarded. But still, this can be seen.
As a rule, until recently, the deputies were required to wear tights to the official toilet. For years, in the buffet of the National Assembly, such were even sold – if someone breaks his own, not to be confused. Due to the warm weather, however, some of the ladies in parliament boldly walked barefoot.
The lipsticks were also neglected. The reason is the masks because of the pandemic. The lipstick under the mask creates discomfort – it smears or needs to be applied very often because it rubs off. Fans of scarlet lips still bet on the so-called. indelible lipsticks that last for hours and under the mask.
Men’s document bags have become a rarity. Most
collect what is needed
in the pockets of
your pants
or in these
on the jacket
The hipster trend of men’s leather backpacks is also slowly entering the National Assembly.
However, the watch is a must-have accessory. A quick look at the styling of the new MPs shows that leather straps are more popular, some even wear rubber ones, and the metal one is forgotten. The tendency is to wear smart watches, because on the one hand, they are not like from the Women’s Market, but on the other hand, they are not 100 thousand euros like “Ulysses Narden” or “Jeje Leculter”, with which MPs appeared years ago. and they were angry.
The start of the new session in the middle of summer introduced more naughty patterns in the old-fashioned building. Linen jackets are comfortable in the heat, but the simple pinstripe navy blue suit is timeless. The plaid suits, on the other hand, seem to be a favorite of the immunologist and MP from “There is such a people” Prof. Andrey Chorbanov. He did not shy away from combining different colors and scales, which impressed the last 45th National Assembly.
