A fashion collection dedicated to Minsk's Shabany: where to buy and what are the prices?
The project creators abandoned formal design and opted for a new urban romance — grey panel buildings, industrial landscapes, and the authentic vibe of a residential area.
Minsk's industrial micro-district Shabany has received its own capsule collection of clothing and accessories from the "Ofistan Market" chain.
The reason for the release was the opening of a new store in the MOMO shopping center near the "Mahilioŭskaja" metro station. According to the idea's authors, Shabany is a local meme and an "island of reality" that has long deserved a re-evaluation of its harsh reputation.
"Every city has places that end up on postcards. And there are those that become local memes. In Minsk, these are, of course, Shabany. A district known even by those who have never been there. A district about which so many jokes, myths, and legends have been invented that they have long lived their own life. But if you strip away all this folklore, a completely different story remains with Shabany — yes, an industrial suburb, grey panel buildings, wide roads, but also — courtyards where thousands of Minsk residents grew up, and a completely unique aesthetic that is increasingly being called a new urban romance today," explains "Ofistan Market."
The line includes t-shirts, baseball caps, stickers, bracelets, and magnets with thematic prints dedicated to Sialitskaha Street and industrial landscapes.
A t-shirt from the new collection costs 44 rubles, a baseball cap — 24 rubles, and prices for keychains start from 8 rubles.
Stickers will cost 8.4 rubles, a magnet — 6 rubles, and a bracelet — 4.5 rubles.
