Rasul Ahmedovwho held senior positions at Zaitsev Fashion House, said why the fashion designer could not be saved.

“The fact that it was poisoning is not true,” assured Akhmedov. – Oleg (Zajtsev’s assistant who was with him in the last minutes – approx. ed.) immediately, as soon as Vyacheslav Mikhailovich did not feel well, he contacted the doctor. The doctor advised to urgently call an ambulance. They quickly called an ambulance. But the fact is that apparently the time has come, as they say… They said they could not get to the relatives. I don’t think he could have been poisoned.”

His friends came to say goodbye to Red Dior. Stylist Sergey Zverev pointed out that the death of Zaitsev is a great loss not only for the world of fashion, but for all creative people.

“We’ve relaxed a bit lately,” Zverev admitted. – At a certain point, it seemed that Slava was fine, that he even started walking. What will he struggle with? He was full of ideas. He had ideas for a new collection, he hadn’t shown everything yet. But everything happened so unexpectedly. But don’t prepare for that!”

Sergey remembered how he met Vyacheslav Mikhailovich at his last show. “They were incredibly beautiful outfits,” said the stylist. – I brought him a bouquet – he likes white flowers. But I was told he doesn’t recognize people. He was taken away in a wheelchair. I walk towards. He recognized me. And he cried. I tell him: “Hang on!”. And I see that he understands everything, he tries to speak. And I exhaled.”

But no – he came himself, he chose the fabric. And he came for the second fitting. He liked to work very much. He was very generous and responsive. Memory and gratitude to him.

The native of Varna said that it was Zaitsev who sewed the first stage costume for his son. “When he did something, he tried to do it qualitatively, interestingly,” said Bedros. – At his exhibitions, the shows were always full of spectators.
