Wendy Lewis, a cosmetic-surgery consultant with lots of Russian clients, says, "I have one client, each time I see her, the fur that walks in the door costs more than my house." London boasts four Russian-language newspapers and a glossy Russian-language magazine, New Style, that advertises fat diamonds and kitchens in "walnut, white and platinum" and runs articles comparing the virtues of cars costing more than $200,000.
