Alexander Rogov, the stylist tapped to host Fashionable Sentence, offered fans a detailed behind the scenes view of the program’s debut on Channel One. He filled his Telegram channel with photos from fittings, candid backstage moments, and short video clips that teased the energy in the studio, the lighting choices, and the choreography of the opening segment.
Shortly before air time a video circulated showing Rogov performing the sign of the cross, a moment that blended personal ritual with the gravity of a live broadcast, signaling focus and calm as he prepared to step onto the set.
A year earlier Rogov had been part of the premiere episode of Fashionable Verdict on Channel One. In a written note, he thanked voters who supported him in the vote and thanked Channel One for the trust, adding that he expected many more wins ahead. “A year ago, the first episode of the program Fashionable Verdict with my participation was broadcast on Channel One. Thank you all again for choosing me in the vote. Thank you Channel One for your trust! I hope there will be much greater victories ahead of us!” Rogov wrote.
The stylist also remembered the look he chose for the first broadcast on Channel One and, to maintain continuity, wore a similar styling a year later, signaling a steady personal brand on air and a sense of evolving confidence in front of the cameras.
He noted his affinity for Cate Blanchett and his commitment to environmentally conscious fashion. He added that both the first appearance and the current one on Fashionable Verdict feature the same program while the look has shifted, illustrating a move from nerves to self‑assurance.
Former presenter of the show, fashion historian Alexander Vasiliev, in conversation with socialbites.ca stated that Rogov has the professionalism and charm needed to host Fashionable Sentence. According to him, for the sake of a new job Rogov might leave the STS program, but he hopes Channel One will lure the stylist with a generous offer.
Earlier Rogov was seen in bold, colorful fur coats that became a distinctive element of his public style and fashion identity.
