|

From the 1910s to the modern day, see how events such as the rise of Stalin, the fall of the Soviet Union and the forming of Pussy Riot, shaped a century's worth of stunning Russian style in less than two minutes.

The team over at Cut Video have just released the next installment in their 100 Years of Beauty series - starting seven months ago with America and covering countries across the globe, from India to the Philippines.

Makeup artist Katya Gudaeva and hairstylist Juel Bergholm transform model Anya Zaytseva to take viewers on a journey through beauty trend evolutions in Russia.
