EUPHORIC NATURE, THE OCCULT and ROCOCO INNOCENCE... Akira Zosens clothing represents many sources of inspiration. In particular Russian Royalty, Eastern European folklore, astrology and the exotica of South American rainforests. 'Tsaritsas' who would wear my clothing dare to step outside of reality into the mysterious sub-layer of this universe: they are queens, goddesses, sirens, archangels, heroines and nymphs. The baroque-contemporary garments I produce are generally one-off, but you can certainly contact me to order replicas or to purchase {semi} second-hand garments. Handmade details suches melted hemlines, feathers and floral arrangements feature on Dresses, Boleros, Shrugs, Skirts, Tops, Cardigans, Gloves, Embellished Stockings, Scarves, Costumes and hairpieces for Tsaritsas of the 21st Century. Other dressmaking services available ;) ///Contact Akira for enquiries and fittings if in the Eastern area of Melbourne: [email protected] 0437210674* * *
