Education
Since childhood, Elena Lenskaya has been fond of cutting and sewing, inventing her own clothing models. And by the age of fifteen she was already doing this quite professionally. And she wore the clothes that her parents brought her from abroad in her own way.
The girl was easily able to combine classes at a comprehensive school with lessons in an art club, which she really liked. And she tried to spend as much time here as possible.
As soon as the school exams were passed, the girl immediately submitted documents for admission to Kiev University. Soon Elena Lenskaya became a student of the journalism department. But the girl’s education did not end there. Soon she entered the capital's Open University.
But even here, Elena Lenskaya could not sit still, she studied sewing styles that were new to her. Trying to fully understand the world of fashion, she studied all the catalogs of fashion magazines, and then also attended all the fashion shows that were taking place in the capital at that time.
09/10/2007 Interview with Lena Lenskaya.Why would the famous designer and ex-wife of Vladimir Presnyakov Jr. Lena Lenskaya tell the whole country about the unhappy life of her ex?! Why couldn’t such a strong woman save her husband from drunkenness, and why did Lenskaya have to have an abortion? About legendary men and unhappy love in an exclusive interview specially for the pro-review at the first musical!
Lena Lenskaya became a mother! Godfather, true, but also good! A woman with an unusual destiny, who connected her life with famous musicians, never became a mother! But today she has a goddaughter, Nika, whom the milliner and singer Alexei Glyzin christened at the Novodevichy Convent! At the christening, the famous parents looked very happy, and since Lenskaya was always considered “Miss Sensuality” because of her constant affairs, only one question arose!
Julia Govor : “Maybe you are having an affair?”
Lena Lenskaya: “Ha...Ah.»
Alexey Glyzin: “We won’t hide it, we have known each other for many years, the romance lasts for many years, hello to the romance, let it last longer”
Either the christening had such an influence on Lena, or maybe it’s all about her natural subtlety, but Lenskaya’s revelations will now open the eyes of many! Everyone knows that the designer lived a seemingly happy life with Vladimir Presnyakov Jr., but for some reason they broke up.
Lena Lenskaya : “ I think the family should be protected, fight for feelings, but we fought with each other, not for feelings ”
Yulia Govor: “They say Presnyakov likes to drink, did that interfere?”
Lena Lenskaya: “It was a hindrance, yes! It was very disturbing!”
Lena Lenskaya: “I tried to fight, but he does it because he likes it”
Yulia Govor: “Now looking at her ex-husband, who lives with Natalya Podolskaya, does Presnyakov look happy?”
Lenskaya: “No! He is not a happy man! He looks happy, but inside he hurts, his soul is crying, I feel good about him, he is kind, but...”
Who would have thought! But who, if not a close person, can see the essence. Lenskaya and Presnyakov lived together for more than 9 years, now Volodya has a new passion! Natasha and Volodya look very happy. Why such conclusions? Maybe Lenskaya has ordinary female envy?
Lena Lenskaya : “She is very interesting, she and Vova are of the same color. God grant that she gives him a child, but for this he needs to make an effort, he must not drink for at least 2 years. We tried, but for a maximum of 2 months. “I always felt that our relationship was complicated, I was just afraid to have children.”
Time heals, Lena, having come to her senses, again decided to throw in her lot with a man, this time it was an ordinary businessman. But even here Lenskaya made a mistake!
Lena Lenskaya : “Unfortunately, I had an abortion not so long ago, I had to break up with a person. Children should be from the right men"
Now “Miss Sensuality” is in love again and this time, she hopes, completely!
Lena Lenskaya : “We all fall in love many times, but this love is the real one, which is now, I think so. I'm having a baby this year! I’m planning it!”
By the way, Lenskaya looks like Paris Hilton, only she is blonde, and Lena is a brunette. My heroine looked very peaceful. I understood that it was time to let her go and asked the last question.
Julia Govor : “Tell me honestly, are you happy?”
Lena Lenskaya: “Yes, very much and more than ever”
Then, I escorted a beautiful and strong woman to her black Bentley, she smiled at me and we wished each other good luck!
Elena Lenskaya: personal life, photos and career as a fashion designer
In 1994, the girl begins to build her own career. The girl creates her own atelier, which offers tailoring of leather and fur products. All works were original, and their prices were very high. All the products that were made in her workshop were always in a single copy, so they were all not only original, but also unique.

Most of them belonged to the publicly known star world. Among them are Sergei Zverev, Alla Dukhova, Angelica Varum and her husband, Alexander Marshall and many other Russian pop stars.

Elena Dmitrievna Lenskaya is a fashion designer who is known in wide circles as she creates fashionable clothes and jewelry not only for catwalks and fashion shows, but also for sports competitions and for everyday life.
First collection
Elena Lenskaya, whose biography was always successful, amazed everyone around her with her increased efficiency, as she tried to work all the time. But in addition to such an unusual ability to work, the girl also has an extraordinary talent for such sewing creativity, as well as the ability to sell her products correctly and on time. It is extremely rare for people to have such commercial sense.
The first show of Elena Lenskaya took place in the Kremlin. All the models that were presented on the catwalk were immediately remembered by Muscovites, as they were simply magnificent. There was something unusual and a little daring in the collection that aspiring fashion designer Elena Lenskaya presented to Muscovites.
But at the same time, all the models were very sophisticated and feminine. Elena Lenskaya's products skillfully and skillfully combined materials such as silk, fur, cashmere and leather. Everything in each look was thought out to the smallest detail, even the wonderful and incredibly beautiful accessories.
Creative career development
This first and successful fashion show in the Kremlin Palace helped Elena Dmitrievna move further in her career and reach a higher level. Not only did the Russian fashion world start talking about her and her models, but foreign fashion designers also became interested. Therefore, for the next four years, the famous and popular fashion designer Elena Lenskaya works hard and successfully, rising higher on her career ladder.
Over time, a lot has changed in her collections, but the style, in general, has remained the same. Already in the nineties, a young and successful girl begins to realize her plans and establishes mass production of the clothes she designs. To do this, she enters into sales agreements with many fashionable Moscow boutiques and stores.
In 2002, Elena Lenskaya decides to change her style and her activities. Jewelry made of precious stones now appears in the clothes of the famous fashion designer. All of them are created only according to the sketches that Elena herself creates. She has been working all year to develop a business plan that was supposed to change the entire fashionable and professional activity of Elena Lenskaya.
2004 turned out to be especially successful for the fashion designer, when her fashion house was opened, and not a single fashion show was complete without her models. Moreover, this has already spread beyond the country and its models have become in demand in America and France.
Vladimir Presnyakov’s wife – Natalya Podolskaya
Presnyakov and Podolskaya met in France in 2005. However, upon returning to Russia, the musician forgot about the beautiful young girl for some time - too many problems fell on his head, including a deteriorating relationship with his wife, and a little later, the start of divorce proceedings. When he was left alone again, Presnyakov remembered Natasha, found her and the couple began to build a relationship.
Their family life now is not without joy and quarrels, but they are happy together and raising a beautiful boy. Vladimir Presnyakov’s wife, Natalya Podolskaya, is also currently developing a musical career.
Elena Lenskaya: biography, personal life
It is known that the girl did not try to hide her personal life from fans of her modeling work, telling all the details.
Elena's first husband was the famous and popular composer Igor Sarukhanov, from whom she soon left. The second chosen one to whom she went was the successful singer Vladimir Presnyakov. But she lived with him for only five years. Such a strong love ended in divorce. Although the young people still communicate well, Elena is even friends with the singer’s wife. After this, there was a whirlwind romance with Alexander Ovechkin, a famous Russian hockey player.
Now fashion designer Elena Lenskaya, whose personal life has ceased to be public, is just at the peak of the popularity of her professional career. Her fashionable, unique and original clothes are in great demand, and there is always a lot of controversy and speculation around each of her new collections, as the designer surprises everyone who is interested in her work and fashion in general. Her unique products, often made in a single copy, quickly sell out in fashion stores. And celebrities willingly line up to sew an outfit from this talented craftsman, who is capable of working real miracles.
Guru Ken Shaw. News of show business
Lena filed for divorce, packed her things, loaded them into the car and, according to her relatives, left for Kyiv. And Presnyakov, stocked up on alcohol, stayed at home... He didn’t leave for several days.
Could Lena Lenskaya, a Kiev resident and former student at the Institute of Journalism, imagine that she would become Presnyakov’s wife? Probably she could. After all, when she started dating Volodya, she already had another pop star on her account - Igor Sarukhanov. Nevertheless, the fact that Lenskaya is Sarukhanov’s legal wife did not stop Vova. He stood his ground... and insisted.
“The fact that we parted ways with Sarukhanov is neither my fault nor his. It had to happen. I became happy from the very first day I met Volodya. And so on every second! I am glad that I can be with him, see him, give him everything I have. Until the last drop,” Presnyakov’s newly-made wife shared with MK immediately after the wedding. (By the way, they say that Presnyakov Sr. shed tears during his son’s wedding ceremony. Lena Presnyakova also cried.)
A year later, Lena Lenskaya was already more eloquent: “No one is immune from anything. I know one thing: as long as there is love, Volodya and I are together. And then - come what may. Each period of life has its own. People should come to marriage consciously. That's what we decided. If there is love, feelings, it means people are together. And if not, then no...”
Have the feelings gone? Much is controversial and not completely clear. The last time the couple went out was at the end of January. At Dima Malikov’s birthday, nothing foreshadowed separation: Lena and Volodya, as always, joked a lot, had fun and happily posed for photographers. But it turns out that this was just a screen. In the young family, everything for a long time (to say the least) was not as illusory as others saw.
Constant scandals, clashes and misunderstandings began, as people close to this couple say, to prevail in the relationship of the betrothed immediately after the scandalous publications in the press about Lena’s pregnancy. Volodya was greatly irritated by the media attention to this rather intimate topic, in which, as knowledgeable people again claim, “everything was not easy.” And yet, they always found common ground and sooner or later came to a compromise.
Lena always resorted to smoothing out rough edges in relationships. She herself said: “I have predominantly masculine qualities - I like to take on everything. It seems to me that no one can do it as well as I do. And Volodya... He is so attentive and subtle. At first, when we started living together, we did everything together, tried to get to know each other’s tastes. It's easier for us now. What he likes, I like too. Otherwise we wouldn’t be together.”
But every time Lena focused on her own independence: “I love my husband, but I have never been a fan of anyone, including Presnyakov. I didn’t count on anything, didn’t plan anything, didn’t assume anything. I just lived with this crazy feeling.”
What exactly prompted Lena to break up the family hearth and lead Presnyakov into a long binge is not entirely clear. There are many versions: he wanted a child, she couldn’t; he drank a lot, she couldn’t stand it. Which one is correct - only they themselves know, but for now they are silent about it.
