I Can Fix Her Tsarevna

"I can fix her" her: ЦАРЕВНА

What it means

A collage shows traditional Russian women’s clothing, elaborate kokoshnik headdresses, folk dolls, ornaments, and a comb-like decorative object under the caption “I can fix her.” The joke is that the speaker wants to repair or improve a supposedly troubled woman, but the “her” is revealed as a tsarevna, or princess, represented through ornate Russian folk imagery.
