Question
i need to know something does russia wear the same clothing everyday because i have fashion focus for my class for high school and i need to know because im doing the russian culture clothing

Answer
Yes, most Russian people (as in 99.9999999% of them) wear Western clothing, although I must say with guys it tends to be a bit more on the conservative side, and with chicks -- well they take AGES to get dressed, and they pay a lot of attention to their appearance, so their's isn't conservative, but very often dressed up.
Of course, there is traditional Russian dress but that isn't worn for every day and a whole different caterogy entirely!
But I wouldn't say that Russian people wear the same clothing every day, they focus on being original and beautiful, so definately no there. Even if their VERY poor; they'll spend their last monies on looking good!   lol

Expertise

I am Russian, I was a child when I emigrated, and felt like I had lost my roots for a while. So when the time came, I studied a bit about my own culture, and sort of reclaimed my heritage. I hope I know a fair bit about Russia, not only from being Russia and speaking Russian etc. but also through my own journey of finding out more about Russian culture.

Experience

I am Russian and have studied a bit about Russian culture, as well as doing a intercultural communication course at university.
