Things that became popular around the world, but appeared in the USSR

In the Soviet Union, not only construction was advanced. Many allied developments today are used by leading European and American companies. And for the people of the Union, popularity They were commonplace and were not considered a luxury. For 70 years of its existence in the USSR, many different things were invented - from household to industrial. And these things have changed the lives of many people in the republics and today the world.



The trend of 2020 was once a very popular bag-avoska. In the Soviet Union, this bag was almost the only baggage when going to the store or the bazaar. A variety of products were easily placed in it, nothing fell out of it. It's very compact and strong.



And who would have thought that the development of the Czech businessman Vavřin Krcil will get a second life? And she appeared quite by accident. When the production of women’s hair nets did not bring the expected profit, Krchil decided to sew bags from the remnants of the purchased materials. And they became very popular among the Soviet population.



Today, all followers of the environmental movement have more than one avosika in their arsenal. In order not to buy excess plastic bags and not pollute the planet, people use mesh bags. They are light and compact, durable and now incredibly fashionable. World fashion houses launched in their collections avosaks of various sizes, colors and styles. And you can be absolutely fashionable with the vintage wax left over from Grandma.

But the next invention was presented to European entrepreneurs immediately. Comfortable and so everyone's favorite boots on lightning. It turns out that they were invented by the Soviet designer, who heads the All-Union fashion house on the Kuznetsk bridge, Vera Aralova.



The concept of her models was in versatility and convenience. She wanted to design shoes that would be comfortable for any Soviet woman. At the same time, such shoes should be elegant and fashionable. Before that, Soviet women walked only in boots or cirrus boots, which did not give them elegance.

Aralova thought through the concept, the boots were made in the workshop of the Bolshoi Theatre and presented them in Paris at Fashion Week. In the USSR, the patent was not issued, but French companies immediately bought the right to produce boots. Production in the Soviet Union was opened only 15 years later according to Austrian patterns.



Fashionable comfortable quilted jackets of today are the prototype of the USSR teelgrey. At first, longitudinal stitches were produced only for the military. Then they became popular among builders, factory workers, drivers.

Almost every resident of the Soviet Union had a vat in his wardrobe. Soviet designers picked up the wave and began to modernize this outerwear. For women began to produce shorter, more tightened models. Coarse fabric was replaced with a strong cotton fabric.



Another modern trend is leggings with strips. In the Soviet Union, these were underpants and belonged to underwear. They fit tightly to the body, sewn from natural knitted fabric and served for heat.



In order for the pants not to be lifted from below, rubber bands were sewn, which were called strips. They were attached to the foot under the heel and did not slide. Today, such leggings act as a separate part of the wardrobe, and not only female, but also male. And they look quite stylish, and warm up in the winter season.
