Russian style is back in fashion: current trends in New Year decorations this season

A noticeable trend this year has been the choice of décor in traditional Russian style, reflecting a desire to return to cultural roots—even in the realm of holiday decorations.

Instead of modern ornaments, Christmas trees are increasingly adorned with elements inspired by Russian culture and everyday life: bagels, baranki, vintage toys, and real pine cones. The composition is complemented by beads and garlands that create a festive atmosphere.

Decorations that evoke nostalgia—such as icicles and old Soviet toys like colorful animals and painted bells—are also gaining particular popularity, according to Readovka.

These elements add comfort and warmth, reminding people of childhood holidays. It is worth noting that in Moscow, preparations for the New Year began as early as October, allowing the festive mood to be created well before the winter holidays.
