Controversial 'Nude Illusion' Party in Moscow Sparks Outrage

Hosted by Influencer Anastasia Ivleeva, the Event Faces Criticism for Alleged Violation of Anti-LGBTQ Laws Amid Ongoing War

Anastasia Ivleeva, a popular Russian influencer, hosted a controversial 'nude illusion' themed party at the Mutabor nightclub in Moscow, attended by high-profile celebrities and critics of President Putin.
The party, which charged around $11,000 for a ticket, has drawn criticism from Russian officials and orthodox activists, who have called for legal repercussions for the event's organizers and attendees.
Critics have accused the event of violating Russia's anti-LGBTQ laws and being 'tone-deaf' in light of the ongoing war with Ukraine.
Police raided the party on its second day but allowed it to continue after a short delay, with guests reportedly more dressed than the previous day.
Despite the backlash, Ivleeva defended the party, stating that it was worth it and that the event was simply people wearing beautiful costumes.
