The campaign images look like scenes directly taken from the Oscar-winning film, “Black Swan”, as smokey-eyed makeup and tight hair buns adorn the models wearing the black and powdered-pink garments. The short tulle dresses resembling tasteful tutus take center stage of the collection additionally including a transparent bodysuit, lightweight asymmetrical dresses, ruffled tops and shorts, knitted sweaters, alpaca leggings, a strapless jumpsuit, and a pair of ballerina flats available in nude and black. The sophisticatedly designed line maintains a relatively accessible price point between €20 to €60.
