Abstract This paper researches a collection of images in a private photographic archive of the late Soviet period (mid-1970s). The collection consists of amateur color slides depicting women dressed up in makeshift costumes and posing for the camera, with the Crimean seaside and mountains as a background. The images neither indicate social or family status of the models nor register the unity of a social group but rather capture performance made especially for the camera. This study seeks to analyze the visual constructions of femininity in the images and to find out the sources of inspiration in popular culture of the time. The research draws upon the studies of popular culture and gender order in late Soviet times, as well as on the personal accounts of archive users.

苏联晚期私人摄影中的女性建构

摘要 本文研究了苏联晚期（1970 年代中期）私人摄影档案中的一组图像。该系列包括业余彩色幻灯片，描绘了穿着临时服装并为相机摆姿势的女性，以克里米亚海滨和山脉为背景。这些图像既不表明模特的社会或家庭地位，也不记录社会群体的团结，而是捕捉专为相机制作的表演。本研究旨在分析图像中女性气质的视觉结构，并找出当时流行文化中的灵感来源。该研究借鉴了对苏联晚期流行文化和性别秩序的研究，以及档案用户的个人账户。
