My “Black Swan” Sketches
The new collection I designed is called: “The Black Swan”. I drew the inspiration from The Swan Lake, by twisting the real story & creating my own “what if” scenario. The main source of inspiration is, naturally, Odile (the black swan herself). The alternative story I created is based on the notions: “What if Odile successfully tricked Prince Siegfried into marrying her?”; “What if the prince never found out about the truth–about Odette Vs Odile?”And so the 12 looks in the collection tells the life story of Odile.
Look #1- Look #7: Odile as the black swan (beautiful and hypnotising in a dark & mysterious way; audacious; manipulative). Main material: Batik Solo, black swan feather, & synthetic fur.
Look #8- Look #11: Odile transformed herself into a princess. Main material: Songket, black swan feather, synthetic fur.
Look #12 (wedding dress): Odile’s transformation is complete. She is now the queen. Main Material: Songket, glittered tulle, white swan feather.
Enjoy!

Iv, so impressed by your sketches. It would be a very georgeous one if you have a commitment to end it up with the actual one. Go for it, Iv. It’s just a game, isn’t it? Well..well.. learning, learning, and learning continuously makes everything would be perfect. Hey, it’s time to make it true, rite? Come on, show us your very big idea turning into reality ^^ God bless Iv.. I’m so proud of you..
