Nastya Ivleeva’s ‘almost naked party’ thrown in Russia ends in a lawsuit

A see-through dress these days barely seems noteworthy, yet it’s turned into quite serious business in the increasingly conservative Russia.

Ms Ivleeva threw a lavish and fleshy party at Moscow’s Mutabor nightclub that encouraged guests to flash flesh and show off their birthday suits.

The affair drew the expected crowd of celebrities and socialites that turned up in near-nothing out of respect for the dress code.

Rapper Vacio opted for the most daring look of the night and managed to outdo women in their sheer dresses when his outfit consisted of three pairs of socks, placed to cover his most intimate parts.

The party was private, but is anything private in 2023? It was quickly posted to social media, and it immediately made the rounds and went viral.

Quickly the party became political fodder.

There was uproar at the audacity of such an affair when Russia is currently engaged in a war with Ukraine.

The backlash was swift, and the partygoers were slammed for partying while Russian soldiers were on the front lines and putting their lives at risk to protect their country.

This wasn’t just your standard social media backlash situation either, where people talk about it for a few days, a few famous people post tearful apologies on social media, and everyone moves on; no, it has now had legal consequences for people involved.

Vacio, was arrested and imprisoned for 15 days due to disorderly conduct and fined $200,000 roubles ($2,182).

Ms Ivleeva took to Instagram to apologise to her 18 million followers and said the whole thing was “inappropriate.”

She also claimed that she recognised her responsibility for what happened and added that she wanted to “apologise” to everyone involved.

She later uploaded another video and further explained that she was sorry for what had transpired but added she hoped she’d be given a “second chance.”

Despite her pleas for a second chance, Ms Ivleeva is already facing a harsh response as it has been reported that a tax investigation against her has been opened, and Yahoo reported that a class-action lawsuit has also been given the seal of approval by a Moscow court where at least 20 people are asking for millions in retribution because of “moral suffering.”

The brutal consequences for the most famous partygoers has naturally led to other party guests apologising.

Pop singer Filipp Kirkorov issued a public apology but stressed he’d only attended the party for “five minutes” but concluded because he was a public person, he should be careful and explained that sometimes in life, you end up “entering the wrong door.”

Similarly singer and Eurovision star Dina Bilan also publicly apologised and said that attending the naked party was not a “reflection” of who he is and said he understood the “resentment” in response to the gathering.

Maria Zakharova, a spokesman for the Russian foreign ministry, said that the event had “stained” those who took part but that they now had a chance for redemption by working on themselves.
