Paris Hilton in Moscow, at Kira Plastinina's show · 2007-11-01 16:27
World-famous socialite Paris Hilton has set this year's Moscow Fashion Week alight. She appeared at the show of teenage Russian designer Kira Plastinina.
The event was held at an exclusive venue in central Moscow, Russia Today reports. The hotel-chain heiress attracted more attention to herself than to the clothes she flew in to promote.
The huge crowd at 15-year-old Plastinina's show applauded Hilton's every move, clapping enthusiastically as she smiled and pointed out the most interesting designs on the catwalk.
When it was all over, the A-list celebrity presented the whiz kid fashion maestro with a huge bouquet of flowers.
Teenage designer Kira is still a schoolgirl. Her career is largely funded by her wealthy father, Sergey Plastinin ??“ one of Russia's biggest dairy magnates. His fortune at the beginning of the year was reported to be in the region of $US 350 million.
It's said that when Kira Plastinina comes up with her new designs, she imagines Paris Hilton wearing them.
Bob Van Ronkel, President of the "Doors to Hollywood' company, says Paris' visit to Moscow is a brilliant PR move for both her and Kira Plastinina.
"Kira is a talented young designer, her father is a phenomenal marketing person. Sergey Plastinin understands marketing like no one I've ever seen and for all of them it is very good," he said.
