Today the famous designer died. Valentin Yudashkin was just five months short of his 60th birthday. For the past seven years, the couturier has been struggling with oncology. “At first it was kidney cancer. It was a focus, then metastases were found in the head. Due to kidney cancer, metastases spread throughout the body and spread very quickly in about a year, “said Yudashkin in 2021.

Valentine’s last public appearance took place in June of last year. The fashion designer, accompanied by his wife Marina, attended the wedding dress collection show in the capital’s Zaryadye Park. Then it was obvious that the designer was weak. He moved with small steps. Nevertheless, Yudashkin smiled and blew kisses to those present.

As it turned out, in March, after remission, the designer’s condition worsened. He lost a lot of weight, one of his arms didn’t work. However, the designer and his wife visited Israel that month. They flew to Tel Aviv for two days to visit Valentin’s mother and close friend Alla Pugacheva.

Yudashkin died two days after the death of Vyacheslav Zaitsev. Alexander Vasiliev proposed the creation of a national fashion museum to preserve their memory. The former host of the Fashion Sentence program assured that the museum in memory of Yudashkin and Zaitsev “will help the young generation not only to learn about the work of these people, which is quickly forgotten, like everything in the world, but also to look at their talented, brilliant creations.” “Z we will not get to this situation without the creation of a national fashion museum. We will lose talents and they will disappear from sight without a trace, “said Alexander Vasilyev to RBC.

Yesterday, Valentin reacted to the death of Vyacheslav Zaitsev. “The world has lost a great fashion designer, artist and creator… He helped many, especially young and emerging designers. He was very open. And a great professional in his field, ”said Yudashkin.
