Nυdе Bеаυty Week in Moscow

Here's a great way to celebrate summer every year:

(UPI) MOSCOW In a bid to increase toursim to problem-plagued Moscow, city officials have announced a novel new tourist attraction: Bеаυty Wееk.

For the next seven days, scores of beautiful women will walk throughout the city completely nude. Gоrky Pаrk will serve as a kind of "Beauty Central", where visitors to the city are invited to talk with the women, pose for photographers or invite the women to model for photos of their own. In other parts of the city, the ladies will stroll through the streets, go shopping, dine at cafes - in short, anything they would normally do clothed. A subtle security presence will ensure that the curious feast only with their eyes.

Public nudity of any kind has traditionally been discouraged if not illegal throughout most of the world. In the past few years restrictions against it have loosened, however, to the point that most Europeans are now accustomed to nude beaches, full frontal nudity on television, and a general laissez-faire attitude towards tasteful public displays. City officials claim that they are merely taking this idea to the next logical conclusion to help jump start Moscow's flagging economy.

"Beautiful women are some of Russia's greatest assets," said Vlаdіmіr Kоvаlеnkо, a cab driver across from Gоrky Pаrk who has seen a dramatic increase in tourists around the park. "Why shouldn't we promote ourselves as a world beauty capital?

Already, all the major hotels in Moscow have been booked to capacity, and rooms in local boarding houses are going for the equivalent of $500 a night. US carriers are reporting additional schedules to Moscow and St. Petersburg, and CNN has reportedly removed its entire news team from Iraq to Moscow to cover the event.

Details and photographs of the women who will be beautifying the city this week are available online at the city's website, and will be featured on a news documentary to be aired sometime this fall.

Okay, we lied. This isn't a real news item. Leanne made it up to show us what an exciting thing a real Bеаυty Wееk would be if it ever existed, and how popular it would be. Our imaginary - but potentially real - Rυssіаn Bеаυty Week is the theme of our latest nude gallery from Alеxаndеr Fеdоrоv, one of Russia's leading creators of progressive nudes. The way we see it, if we can't give you a real Rυssіаn Bеаυty Week in Moscow, we can at least give you one here at Body in Mind. See what Bеаυty Wееk might look like in this updated (40 new photos) classic gallery of Ruby.
