The best artists of the country gathered at the music festival
The most elegant outfits at the New Wave, which takes place in Sochi, are demonstrated by the host Lera Kudryavtseva. She spent the first evening in a dress from designer Jemal Makhmudov (by the way, it was his fashion house that dressed on). A long floor-length dress with a sparkling cape turned Lera Kudryavtseva into a real princess.

Malakhov held the opening of the festival and flew to Moscow to record a new broadcast of his own. And Lera continued to work at the music festival, and her fans immediately compared one of the images of Kudryavtseva with how she dressed in those years when she met with.
See for yourself and decide when the couple looked more stylish. The photo on the left is 2008, on the right is 2017.
Singer Natasha Koroleva was dazzlingly good, but it seems that the star has recovered a bit.

And Larisa Dolirna hid her magnificent forms with the help of a hoodie, which Alla Borisovna Pugacheva wore before losing weight.

Well, Irina Dubtsova, on the contrary, cannot boast of an aspen waist, the star strives to hide figure flaws with the help of corsets.
Maybe she should take a cue from who feels confident at any weight. Irina Allegrova flew to Sochi with a suitcase of new dresses: as always, the “empress” of our stage has a breathtaking neckline. Olga Buzova, as always, was in a very frank mini, surrounded by numerous fans.
Even Sergey Lazarev filmed her performance on an iPhone at the party! Stars and journalists noted that Buzova talked a lot with Philip Kirkorov. Apparently, the king of pop gave advice to the aspiring singer (Olga released only 6 songs, but her first solo album will be released on October 6, which will contain 14 songs) about her first solo concert, which will take place in November.

Two days later, on September 8, the next season of the New Wave will begin in Sochi. The festival (and it is also a competition for young performers) will be held for the 16th time. From 2002 to 2014, it was held in the Latvian city of Jurmala, and the Dzintari stage was the constant concert venue.
In 2015, the festival moved to another sea city - Sochi, but this did not affect its main function in the least. "New Wave" from year to year becomes one of the main events not only in the musical, but also in the social life of Russia. Everyone comes: singers-singers, actors-actresses, showmen, producers. And, of course, they show a wide variety of outfits on the red carpet. Today we decided to recall the heroes of the "New Wave", who surprised us a lot with their outfits!
Polina Gagarina in a short sparkly dress in 2016
Opens today's rating sonorous Polina Gagarina and her short shiny dress, which she demonstrated at the opening ceremony. It completely falls out of our understanding of what outfits Polina most often chooses. Usually the singer adheres to a feminine and elegant style: A-line skirts and dresses, a minimum of glitter, laconic decor. And we are used to seeing such outfits rather on Bella Hadid or Kendall Jenner (the latter, by the way, not so long ago was in something very similar).
Nikolai Baskov dressed as Pikachu in 2016
Last year's insanity on the game "Pokemon" did not pass by Nikolai Baskov. "Natural Blonde", however, went further and completely reincarnated the famous yellow Pokemon. The look included pants, a sweatshirt, yellow sneakers and a "Catch Me" T-shirt. "However, what's so surprising about that?" - you ask. Surprisingly, the singer, who was used to showing an abundance of glitter on his costumes, turned out to be completely in yellow plush, on which not a single rhinestone was sewn.
Katie Topuria in a long white dress in 2016
I was also surprised by Katie Topuria, who often chooses futuristic outfits for her appearances on the red carpet and as stage costumes. Last year, the soloist of the group "A" Studio "appeared in the most simple long white dress (however, her headdress gleams with its decor). As for the outfit itself, here you have no cut-outs, no complex silhouette, or even an unusual decor. Simple Long White Dress
Lera Kudryavtseva in a straight dress in 2016
As for straight dresses, that’s really on whom, but on Lera Kudryavtseva we definitely didn’t expect to see this. The TV presenter chooses puffy "princess" dresses for both red carpets and stage appearances, which usually contain a crinoline under them to increase volume. True, in the matter of decor, she remained true to herself and could not refuse to shine: this dress of Lera shone almost brighter than spotlights.
Sergey Lazarev wearing a black leather set in 2013
Kudryavtseva's former lover Sergey Lazarev, who dressed in a black leather set, was also surprised by his daytime exit in Sochi. To see such, probably, on Nikolai Baskov or, say, Valery Leontiev, is an ordinary sight; to see on Sergey is extraordinary.
Kristina Orbakaite in short shorts, over the knee boots and fishnet tights in 2016
Kristina Orbakaite also saved a daring look for the New Wave: the singer and mother of many children chose a top with a long train, short shorts with embroidery on the pockets, black over the knee boots and fishnet tights. In ordinary life (and for other events as well), Christina usually chooses images whose degree of sexuality is not so high.
Lyubov Uspenskaya in a transparent dress in 2016
Lyubov Uspenskaya also surprised me with her outfit for the performance: the popular singer decided to choose a transparent dress (under which, however, you can see a beige lining, but this does not change the general situation). Surprised in a good way: the artist has a beautiful figure, she looks great, and this dress only emphasizes the blooming appearance one of the main stars of the domestic chanson.
Anzhelika Varum and her look in the style of the 80s in 2016
The popular singer of the 90s decided to remember her own childhood (and at the same time play ahead of the curve and try on the hot trend before the rest) and dressed in a set in the style of the 80s. Golden high-waisted trousers are responsible for the spirit of the era, although in general the look with a dropped-shoulder top and an extravagant hat looks very organic.
Philip Kirkorov in a blue jacket and white trousers in 2016
Well, how could we do without the king of the Russian pop scene, Philip Kirkorov? We answer: no way. True, the lover surprised us not by the number of feathers on the jacket and not by the high cost of the image, but, on the contrary, by its conciseness and modest elegance. True, the devil is still in the details: pay attention to the color of Kirkorov's slip-ons. What to do - the king must remain the king, even if it only concerns the color of the shoes.
What outfits and makeup did celebrities choose in 2017 - see our selection.
For the opening ceremony of the festival, Olga Buzova chose a rather modest outfit for herself - trouser overalls and open stiletto sandals. True, the star quickly changed her mind, changed into a crazy sequin scale dress, plastic ankle boots and tights in a large mesh. Then she got on her knees to Philip Kirkorov - and was like that. Someone who, but Olga Buzova knows how to attract attention!

Polina Gagarina was wonderful. However, as always. For the opening ceremony of the New Wave, the singer chose a laconic white dress with a deep neckline, which perfectly emphasized slim figure stars. Polina completed her elegant look with old Hollywood styling and makeup with an emphasis on the eyes.
For the opening ceremony of the New Wave, Alsou chose a rather “relaxed” outfit: light wide trousers, a top and a jacket with ostrich feathers. Nude make-up and careless styling complemented the delicate image of the star. On the second day, there was no trace of the former tenderness: a bright fuchsia-colored jumpsuit, stiletto sandals, stylish styling and makeup with an emphasis on lips - Alsou looked very stylish and sexy.
Chic, shine, beauty - Natasha Koroleva is true to herself! A short dress in rhinestones and tinsel, fishnet tights and “hoof sandals” from the 90s. But the make-up and hairstyle are on top - a solid five for the stylist!
To the image of Irina Dubtsova, we have only one question: is she not hot in all this latex?
Before coming to the "New Wave", the singer Jasmine, it seems, called in her grandmother in the village. I got dressed there. And made up. Neither a fashionable handbag nor a luxurious headband saves.
We haven't decided yet, we like it new style Diana Arbenina or not. On the one hand, the lead singer of Night Snipers in a dress and make-up is something new. On the other hand, brutal tattoos and rock and roll boots, Arbenina is still true to herself. But something in this image is still not right ...
Actress, model and ex girlfriend Prokhor Chaliapin - Anna Kalashnikova continues to bring her appearance to perfection. Plump lips, expressive cheekbones, a sharp chin - all modern beauty trends in one bottle! Well, the curtain dress is beyond praise!
Lera Kudryavtseva appeared on the New Wave red carpet in a long skirt, top and jacket. Everything is fine, but the TV presenter seems to be too smart with her hair.
They are so different and so beautiful! Irina Dubtsova took off her terrible "latex" and turned into a real Hollywood diva of the 50s! Ekaterina Varnava in a vest and high heels is also incredibly good!
But Lolita seems to be tired. Or sad. Or is she just hot in that tight mermaid dress?
“And there is a crazy empress ...” It seems that over the past 20 years, Irina Allegrova has not changed at all. Branded styling, tight makeup, sexy outfit - keep it up!
Oh… We don’t even know what to say here. In this image, everything is “perfect”: makeup, hair, and a dress from the New Year's “rain”. But for the incredible voice of Teone Kontridze, you can forgive any beauty and fashion mistakes.
Recently in Sochi began the annual music competition "New Wave". This event is an opportunity for aspiring singers to show themselves and break the path to a stellar career. Many of today's representatives of the jury, such as Philip Kirkorov, Alsu, Dima Bilan, Sergey Lazarev and others, themselves started on the stage of this competition, which used to be held in Jurmala.
The New Wave program consists of six days and ends with an awards ceremony and a final gala concert of pop stars. This year, 15 performers from 10 different countries were selected to participate in the competition following the results of the semi-finals.
Alla Pugacheva remains the constant muse and patroness of the musical competition. Every year, as part of the competition, she awards the best performer in her opinion with a separate prize "Alla's Golden Star".
This year pop stars have pleased. They competed with each other not only in creativity, but also in the beauty and extravagance of outfits. The editors of AWESOME have put together a selection of the best and worst celebrity looks for you. Let's start with a pleasant and fun...
Alsou
The singer is pleasing to the eye. Looks elegant in everything. 
Anna Kalashnikova
Her curtain dress is perfection.
Jasmine
What can I say, cute. But it reminds me a little of the dress given by my grandmother from the bottom of my heart.
And on the second day she turned into a real lady. 
Arman Davletyarov, Sergey Lazarev, Dmitry Bilan, Anton Belyaev
In the case of these men, there is nothing to complain about.
Philip Kirkorov
But he seems to have confused a solid music competition with a Mexican party. 
Polina Gagarina
This lady is a real style icon. 
Now, as the filmmakers would say, let's move on to film bloopers. And in our case - to surprising experiments with fashion.
Olga Buzova
First, the former member of "House-2" dressed in a fairly modest trouser overalls. But then she radically changed her image and appeared in a multi-colored sequin scale dress. In such a colorful form, she attracted the attention of Phillip Kirkorov. 
Natasha Koroleva
Natasha looked like she was in the 90s. Rhinestones, tinsel, mesh tights. But the makeup and hair didn't disappoint. 
Diana Arbenina 
A hoarse voice, a masculine style in shirt clothes, short hairstyles, strong lyrics written by the soloist of Night Snipers - this is all about Diana Arbenina. Having put on a dress and put on make-up, she did not change much. Tattoos and a hedgehog on the head betrayed brutality.
Irina Dubtsova
The performer of the once popular and romantic composition "About Him" changed her image of a tender girl. She appeared all in black and latex. 
Catherine Barnabas
The participant and choreographer of the show "Comedy Woman" probably decided to joke - she put on a vest. Although, Sochi is a sea city. But Irina Dubtsova, standing next to her, changed her mind and on the other day of the competition turned into a real Hollywood diva. We agree that it is better for her. 
Teona Kontridze
For a beautiful voice, you can forgive her outfit, more appropriate for the New Year holidays.
Irina Alegrova
Reminds me of the crazy empress, about whom she has been singing for twenty years. It is not for nothing that they say that actors get used to the image of the hero they play and become one with him.
Lera Kudryavtseva
I messed with my hair, that's for sure.
Lolita
Mermaid-Lolita for some reason saddened. And everyone is so accustomed to her unrestrained fun and seditious jokes.
The stars who chose restraint, conciseness, and clarity of lines in their clothes looked like this.
Yana Rudkovskaya, producer of Dima Bilan 
Angelica Varum and Igor Krutoy 
Alexey Vorobyov and Lipa
Yes, stars are people too, they don't have to be perfect imitators of fashion and connoisseurs of the laws of style. But we are equal to them, in everything. We imitate not only their voice, demeanor, but also their dress habits. And therefore, it would be very good if they always set only a positive example.
On the other hand, for their huge talent, charisma and powerful energy, which they willingly share with the audience at concerts, they can be forgiven for minor imperfections. After all, celebrities also have the right to live and dress the way they like.
