This article examines the phenomenon of the "Russian gaze," which became an unexpected global trend in early 2026.

Accompanying trends are also analyzed: the fashion for "Slavic chic" in clothing, the popularity of Russian music abroad, and foreigners' attempts to master the elusive specificity of Russian facial expression.
