^I know right!!
style.comEnter the Oligarchettes
If last year's It girls hailed from Little Britain, this year's crop has roots a little further east: Russia. Way back in 2007, Dasha Zhukova's main claim to fashion fame, other than an enviable closet stuffed with Azzedine Alaïa and Rodarte, was her Kova & T wet-look leggings. This year, her first issue as editor in chief of Pop, featuring Tavi on the cover, was endlessly dissected, to mostly positive reviews. Her other coup: scoring Spring 2010 Proenza Schouler before it appeared on the designers' runway to wear to her launch party. Also causing a stir in the style blogosphere is Miroslava Duma. Despite lacking a "serious" editorial position (her main gig is invited fashion editor for OK! Russia, whatever that means), the Moscow native—along with BFF Natasha Goldenberg—jet-sets on the global fashion circuit with suitcases full of fresh-from-the-runway wares. Her eclectic mix of leather biker jackets, Hermès croc bags, and bling has made her a Tommy Ton favorite. Some girls are just born with It, apparently.

Dasha Zhukova
This is amazing: Dasha in Coco Chanel’s apartment on the rue Cambon, wearing her glasses. Homegirl was blind as a bat! If you look closely at the sofa cushions, though, you’ll see the original inspiration for the quilted pattern made famous by the Chanel handbag.

Emma Watson and Dasha Zhukova
I was shocked to learn Emma had never been to a soccer match. Sure, she has an excuse—she spent her childhood filming the decade's biggest grossing films—but still, the football hooligan-ry is an English rite of passage. We sorted her out with a Chelsea match in the spring.

Dasha Zhukova, Josephine de la Baume and Mark Ronson
Again on the late night tour of the exhibition, which at the time was some of the works from Francois Pinault’s personal collection, continued with a few contemplative moments in a large-scale installation by Dan Flavin.
