In the latest episode, stylists took on the challenge of transforming 37-year-old Darya, who has been on maternity leave for five years. First, she stayed home with her eldest child, now five years old, and then with her youngest, who is now one.
Her husband brought her to the show. He wasn’t happy that after going on maternity leave, his wife completely stopped taking care of herself. It wasn’t about expensive beauty treatments but basic hygiene. According to him, Darya could go a whole week without washing her hair, wearing it in a simple slicked-back ponytail.

Darya doesn’t see the point in spending time daily on hairstyles or makeup when she has so many chores. Her wardrobe is sparse: a couple of tracksuits and two dresses she never wears. Even though her husband regularly suggests buying new clothes, Darya believes she doesn’t need them.
The first look featured a floral dress suitable for hosting guests at home. It turned out to be a somewhat old-fashioned choice.

The second and third outfits were more practical for everyday walks with children. The third look was especially successful—if paired with sneakers instead of heels, it would appear much more modern.
Let’s now examine the outfit suggestions made by the stylists at Fashion Verdict.
The first outfit was a versatile combination: a simple white T-shirt, a leather jacket, and a pleated skirt. Pleated skirts are making a strong comeback this year.

The second look consisted of a red blouse paired with a dark pencil skirt and a lavender coat. This ensemble is perfect for outings, whether it’s a walk, a café visit, or shopping.
The third outfit featured a white pantsuit and a colorful turtleneck—clearly designed for a special occasion. The stylists also styled Darya’s hair beautifully for this look, adding an elegant touch.

Darya’s hair was initially beautiful, and it’s fortunate that the stylists didn’t cut it. Instead, they opted for trendy coloring and a chic style.
Darya loved her transformation and promised her husband she would start taking better care of herself again. It seems the stylists managed to “wake her up” and help her see herself in a new light.
