: The calm life of a positive and honest wife is taken over by the sly lace collar that she bought. He pushes the girl to rash acts and destroys her family happiness.

For three years Olechka Rozova - a very shy girl, an honest and loving wife - lived calmly and happily. Calmness ended when she bought a white starched collar with a yellow ribbon threaded through it at Gostiny Dvor.

Sometimes the most unprepossessing little thing will come to life, spin it and turn all its fate in the wrong direction where it should go.

Having become the owner of a new thing, Olga felt the need for change. It all started with the fact that the collar demanded to reconsider the wardrobe, since he did not fit into other things. After crying all night, Olga laid her jewelry and borrowed money from her grandmother. Having pretty much updated the toilet, Olga bought a striped sofa, which, it seemed to her, was more suitable for the collar, despite the fact that everyone came back from this piece of furniture, including herself. After this purchase, Olga was due to all her friends.

Olechka began a dissolute "collar" life.The girl has changed a lot - she started smoking, cut her hair and laughed at any ambiguous jokes. Collar led her life, but Olga could not help but cry when her favorite little thing was in the wash. At heart, she was aware of the horror of her situation, but could not get rid of the tormentor-collar, weakening every day more and more.

As a weak and spineless creature, she soon dropped her hands and swam with the stream, which was deftly controlled by a sneaky collar.

Olga tried to talk with her husband, but he only laughed, deciding that this was a joke. The girl couldn’t throw the collar on her own.

Once Olya was invited to a house where she had never been before. "Starchy rubbish" made her reciprocate the harassment of a young student and surrender to him, despite internal indignation.

After spending the night with the student, Olechka returned home in the morning, where she was met by an excited husband who found all the receipts - evidence of Olechka's crazy spending. The collar forced her to brazenly tell about the student. The girl's family happiness came to an end - an honest husband left her and transferred to another city.

Soon, the collar was lost during the wash, and the girl's life went into the usual rut. Now Olechka works in a bank and is so modest that she blushes at the word “omnibus”, because it looks so much like the word “hugging”.
