15-year-old Kira Plastinina shows at Rome Fashion Week

Young Russian designer Kira Plastinina has been causing a buzz amongst the industry for a while now, but that hasn't stopped her from showing her spring/summer '08 collection at Rome Fashion Week overnight. To anyone who was in any doubt of her ability, the 15-year-old made it clear that she wasn't the product of her father's multi-millionaire help, wearing a t-shirt which boldly declared: "The World!!! I'm not a SUGAR-BABY".

The fun, flirty show swayed between puffy skirts, micro shorts and latex-like trousers. Her first New York store is scheduled to open this March, with another ten planned for Manhattan and L.A.

Plastinina made headlines when Paris Hilton modelled in her last show in Moscow, it was rumoured that the heiress was paid £1m to do so by her father Sergei Plastinina.

Don't be jealous of her and you can't by your way in "Mother Russia" of course she has the talent. Americans buy their way and they have no talent half of Hollywood is not American, there is no such thing as Americans because that race never existed It's Indians not Americans.

What????? The only reason that girl has become succesful was because her multi-millionaire father was able to fund her. She wouldn't have gotten anywhere without him!!

looks awesome, let's hope her daddy didn't pay for someone else's talent to make it look like his daughter's. Disappointong but nonetheless the usual way things are done in Mother Russia. Also, it's Sergei Plastinin not Plastinina - 'a' at the end identifies it's a female
