We are enthralled with Russian oligarchs — the Borises, Romans, Vladimirs and Olegs and their post-Soviet glamazon wives and girlfriends. Let’s take, for example, oligarchy power couple Roman Abramovich, 45, and his girlfriend, 31-year-old international entrepreneur Dasha Zhukova, who opened Russia’s first modern-art gallery (the insanely art-world-recognized Garage Center for Contemporary Culture in Moscow’s Gorky Park) and is now an insanely popular fashion designer. Ridiculously wealthy, Roman, Dasha and their playmates have second palaces in Moscow-on-the-Thames, mega-yachts jamming the waterways of Antibes, Venice and Cannes, and are lapping up the couture cream from every luxury designer. Here, двадцать четыре oligarch-worthy accessories from the flush fall runways.
