Today, Ekaterina Polyanskaya, fashion designer, creator and ideological inspirer of the Feeric clothing brand (a well-known representative of the world of high fashion not only in Russia but also abroad), does not lack the attention of the press and the recognition of her talent. There is even a double of Ekaterina Polyanskaya on the World Wide Web, whose series of books, being devoted to various magical worlds, have found their readers among fantasy fans.
True, it will still be. In the meantime, Ekaterina is 17 years old, and the young spectacular Muscovite does not even think that her whole future life will be connected with the world of beauty and unique toilets.
Znayka
Ekaterina Polyanskaya was born in 1973. In childhood, like the vast majority of future stars, the girl did not stand out among her peers and classmates. Except with their mental abilities. In addition, the future catwalk queen was extremely shy during her school years, preferring a book to any entertainment or communication withother children.
It is not surprising that, as a schoolgirl, Katya thought only about big science, dreaming of devoting her life to it.
I didn't want to be a model. It was education oriented. She planned a long way in science: Ph. D., then dissertations. But in the subway, agents constantly approached me and offered to try my hand at modeling …
Thus, two higher educations - pedagogical and architectural - got into the treasury of Katya Polyanskaya's achievements.
Fashion model
It is believed that everything in our life is predetermined. Ekaterina Polyanskaya, despite all her scientific aspirations, gradually turned from an ugly duckling into a spectacular long-legged blonde by her twentieth birthday.
In the 90s, the world of Moscow fashion did not yet know such a thing as a model. Girls defiling along the catwalk in fashionable outfits, or flickering in the first domestic clumsy music videos, were called simpler and more logical - fashion models. Agents rushed around Moscow in search of suitable candidates, offering young attractive girls a beautiful life and career.
These scouts of beauty approached Ekaterina all the time. The girl rejected their increased attention for a long time, until she decided to try. The main reason for her act was nothing more than a struggle with herself. At first, the girl only wanted to defeat her natural timidity and shyness thanks to the catwalk.
I am a very shy person and workmodel became a victory over herself. When you step on the podium, all the excitement disappears, you feel like a queen, but in life this is not always the case. I am very critical of myself and people, and therefore I know all my jambs and shortcomings. And on the podium, I forget about them. This feeling was absolutely necessary. Thanks to him, I won…
Those were tough times, and the $50 that was usually paid for one exit was money to live on, compared to the miserable salaries of research workers at research institutes everywhere closing.
Thus began the podium career of Ekaterina Polyanskaya, which lasted almost ten years, during which the girl managed to become a model of the Red Stars agency and the famous Valentin Yudashkin, who later became her teacher, the face of Givenchy and Tiffany, to attend shows of the most famous international Fashion Houses. Her numerous photographic images have been featured in magazines such as Elle, Harpers Bazaar, Jardin des Modes, L'Officiel and many more.
Kobzon
Ekaterina Polyanskaya and Andrey, the son of the country's famous singer and artist Iosif Kobzon, met at the peak of the model's modeling career. At that time, there was such a strained relationship between Kobzon Jr. and his star father that they even preferred not to communicate for several years.
Andrey, in the absence of the attention of his parents and their constant employment, grew up as a difficult and hooligan teenager. He was raised by a nanny. True, the young man graduated from school well. Then atKobzon Jr. showed a talent for music, and for some time he worked with the Moral Code and Sunday groups.
At first, the girl was simply fascinated by the sincere and kind Andrey. He was like a warm ray of light in the dirty troubled 90s. With him it was easy and somehow reliable. Young people quickly got together and lived for several years in a civil marriage, wandering around the corners of acquaintances and friends. It was very difficult, and sometimes so hungry, that they had to go to dinner with Ekaterina's parents.
In order to somehow feed his family, Andrei went into business with his head, becoming a co-owner of one of the elite clubs, and a little later became interested in the restaurant and jewelry industry.
Then father and son Kobzon reconciled, and Ekaterina and Andrey got married.
Wedding
The wedding was very magnificent. According to the status of the groom's family, the celebration was held in the center of Moscow, in the restaurant of the Metropol Hotel, one of the most expensive and status places in the capital. It is noteworthy that they played it in Russian traditions, despite the national roots of the star family.
Several hundred guests participated in the celebration - the whole Kobzon family, friends, relatives and colleagues from the bride and groom. The groom's father, Iosif Davydovich, presented the bride with a vintage ring. Ekaterina herself, sparkling with a chic dress from the already famous fashion designer Yudashkin, suffered this day like a nightmare, after which she spent two weeksgot the flu.
Already at that time, the couple began to have relationship problems. Quarrels and even mutual parting for several days became frequent. And the wedding became a kind of attempt to get rid of all doubts and strengthen their union.
So Ekaterina Polyanskaya became the wife of Andrei Kobzon.
Children
A young couple had two girls in marriage: Polina - in 1999, and Anya - in 2001.
Kobzon Jr., who had completely gone into business life, at that infrequent time when he was at home, turned from a businessman into a caring and loving father.
Grandfather Iosif adored his granddaughters in his own way: he gave them expensive gifts and sweets (pictured Ekaterina Polyanskaya with her husband, Andrei Kobzon, and daughters, Polina and Anya)
After the birth of her daughters, Ekaterina Polyanskaya returned to the podium. However, this previously beloved occupation has already lost its former importance and significance. As the former model herself later said, she outgrew her job.
Divorce
The reason why Ekaterina and Andrey broke up can be called the banal “they didn’t get along.” Young spouses, each of whom at the time of the wedding was only a little over twenty years old, were simply not ready for responsibility and a kind of mutual lack of freedom in family life.
Ekaterina's work involved publicity and constant appearances, media exposure, communication, new acquaintances and a complete lack of free time for the family.
Andrey, on the contrary, did not like crowded places and increased attention to himself. He avoided it in every possible way and, like his wife, disappeared all the time at his job.
As Ekaterina later admitted, instead of romantic feelings, they were, by and large, connected by mutual friendship. Both understood each other perfectly. And each of them could not help themselves. Both are strong self-sufficient personalities. And each of them could not put an end to his career for the sake of his spouse. They lived together for eight years, as if by inertia. Kobzon Jr. is an introvert fixated on his inner world and his problems. Elena - always ready to help and support, but too busy with work at the same time. Over time, each of them was not enough of the little that remained between them. It is very scary when everything seems to be there, but the most important thing, happiness, is not and never was. And life is wasted….
So, not having lived in marriage for 10 years, the couple separated. Quietly, without scandals and mutual claims.
As the ex-wife of Kobzon's son, Ekaterina Polyanskaya, says, in the end it turned out that after the divorce, Andrei began to see his children much more often.
Dmitry
A holy place, as they say, is never empty. And so, after some short time, football player Dmitry Bulykin burst into the life of Catherine as a locomotive.
They met each other at one of the many social events. Ekaterina Polyanskaya is the wife of Kobzon Jr. Dmitry - was also at that time in a relationship with onegirl. At first they were just friends, without any signs of attention, flirting and the like. The circle continued to narrow, and now Bulykin began to meet with one of Catherine's close friends. And, as soon as the marriage of Polyanskaya and Kobzon broke up, he immediately appeared on her horizon. The relationship between them somehow immediately developed, as if they were two halves for each other.
New family
Dmitry is six years younger than Ekaterina. However, this does not bother them at all.
The couple got together in 2005 and lives in a civil marriage. According to Ekaterina, the stamp in the passport does not matter.
At first, the footballer had certain difficulties with the children of Ekaterina Polyanskaya, Polina and Anya. However, Dmitry's characteristic openness and sociability quickly melted this ice of distrust between them. He surrounded them with care and attention, and the girls quickly fell in love with him.
Two years later, Ekaterina and Dmitry had a daughter, Agatha, and in 2010, Vitalina, the second daughter of a happy couple, was born.
Dom Mod
After the birth of Agatha and Vitalina, Ekaterina Polyanskaya finally leaves the modeling business. In 2007, she fulfills her lifelong dream of becoming a fashion designer and opening her own fashion house, FEERIC.
Today FEERIC has already won the respect of Russia's leading fashion designers. The creative inspiration for Catherine was Valentin Yudashkin. It is from his idea to combine modern technology andtraditional hand-tailoring was born the main message of Catherine's House of Fashion. Most models are created in a single copy and are truly unique.
The main accents of the images created by Polyanskaya Fashion House are sexuality, sensuality and femininity.
