Women with disabilities shine during Russia Fashion Week

Women with disabilities took part in the St. Petersburg fashion week for the first time. Eight participants in wheelchairs appeared in a catwalk wearing clothes made by local designer Olga Malyarova. Malyarova was offered to take part in the project since her designs match the idea of the event-- allowing these women to feel like models. "Such catwalks give a girl an opportunity to feel the way she really is deep inside", said participant Marina Sogoshchan.
