Valentin Abramovich Yudashkin (Russian: Валентин Абрамович Юдашкин, IPA: [vəlʲɪnʲˈtʲin ɐˈbraməvʲɪtɕ jʊˈdaʂkʲɪn] ; born October 14, 1963) is a Russian fashion designer.

Career

Born in Moscow Oblast, Yudashkin came to prominence during the 1980s, dressing Raisa Gorbacheva. He is considered the first post-Soviet designer to bring a contemporary Russian look to the international fashion world, wowing critics with sumptuous theatricality as well as wearable styles.

His designs have been exhibited in museums such as the Musée de la mode et du textile in Paris, the California Museum of Fashion in Los Angeles, the Metropolitan Museum in New York, and the State Historical Museum in Moscow. In 2010, he redesigned Russia's military uniforms, creating 85 designs to dress all branches of the Russian armed services.
