Незаметный Шик / The Invisible Chic
Coming soonArchive note
Soviet-era product advertisement for an anthropomorphic fox figurine, presented as a design object from a 1962 Moscow department store campaign. The fox, dressed in a tailored suit and fedora, holds a diminutive microphone—suggesting either a spy thriller merchandise tie-in or a surrealist commentary on consumer culture in the Eastern Bloc. The geometric art deco backdrop and faded palette indicate official state design ideology filtered through aspirational Western imagery. Rare artifact for collectors of Cold War kitsch and impossible product histories.
Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.
