Vixn Dagger: “Just about Everyone associates goth and darkness with Edgar Allen Poe.  He’s one of my all time favorite author’s from childhood.  So as an influence for this project I used Poe’s poem “The Raven”.  The  men’s and women’s matching design sets titled “Nevermore”

Another point I tried to aim for is staying away from typical “Black” Clichee which is associated with being “Goth”.  I used Hues of Purple and black to add an iridescent effect to the pieces.  On the women’s dress you will find hand drawn Raven’s heads adorning the breasts.  On both the Men’s and women’s outfits you will find the fantasy aspect of hand drawn Raven feather adornments.  I wanted to have the Men and women Wearing these designs feel like the Dark Gods and Goddesses of the underworld.

Lexi Vargas: “Black Magic Woman is ready to weave her spell in this enchanting and sensual hand drawn ensemble. She wears dangerously low-cut pants that are a combination of strapped leather and opaque patterned silk  drawn together with a cleverly laced front piece. There’s a bra top to match featuring the same patterned silk and leather and long snug sleeves. Black feathers decorate the collar which expands into a fabulous shoulder ornamentation. Shroud wings trail after Black Magic Woman as a final compliment to her original style.

Hex is the enspelled cat who belongs to Black Magic Woman, although it’s a loose ownership as he’s got one of her feathers in his mouth. He strikes a  sensual note in his ornate snakeprint and leather wrapped pants with laced front piece. Add to those his leather straps, silk brocade draped top and shroud pieces that float around him as if he’s part of an enchantment – and you have the perfect companion for any stylish cat.

Daron is the demon samurai that has come to life by as evil spell.  He travels in the night, hunting for his next victim so he can slice into pieces and consume their flesh.  His long tentacle arms whip violently at his prey as he strikes.  Do not be fooled by Daron because he is blind, he has incredible hearing.”

Kalyabreeaa Capelo: “From the Void Wicca leave nothing but emptiness. Not even your attention can escape.  dawning the head-dress of lost souls don’t stare too close as one of damned my pull you in.  Her cape bears the dead bones of the lost as it flows in the wicked air.  This is held in place by the hands of the damned.  The A – line skirt apexes with a few minions trying to escape to no avail.  Under we see tentacles she uses to reap the souls of the defiant.  Beware the Void.

Like the Black Plague in the dark ages Pestilents sweeps through the land decimating all in its path leaving a wast land for despair.  Harsch has become Pestilents.  His armor dark and foreboding he brings chaos unchecked throughout the lands.  He is not be ignored or under estimated.  His helmet commands obedience alone.  Bow down and be destroyed, your soul captured in his cape of infinite souls.

Thetra Blackheart:” Hail to the queen of darkness when she wears the Nimue!  Intricate  lines, thick velvets, lace and all the  fine details make this dress of royalty among the damned.  The lining of this gorgeous outfit is of fine silk.  Embroidered detail along the outfit makes for  a view  that keeps giving.  The bustle accentuates the womans shape and the low-cut bodice entices the onlooker to gaze and become entranced while willingly fall victim to her every whim.

Lestat will allure anyone to get close and personal.  Dark or not the admirer will not be able to resist the look this outfit possesses.  The finesse, and elegance is balanced with mystery and danger.  The mix of modern goth, old renaissance and a twist of Victorian makes wearing the Lestat an enigma around others. Getting close and personal to the man wearing this is worth  the price to pay.

Marita Overland:”This outfit ensemble is entitled “Underworld” by Runway Couture. Taking a note from the leading lady from the film,Wicca is wearing the female slayer outfit. She is ready to kick some butt in her leather body suit adorned with gold inlay, rubies and chains. The near knee-length boots are matching this ensemble  in black leather and gold inlay and rubies. The short mini skirt with gold chevrons, rubies and chains, are sure to catch that beast off his guard as she slays him with her storm of fire balls.

Harsch  is the target on the slayer’s radar, in his large chest armor and tentacles adorned with gold and leather. His belt sits atop his hybrid bottom half with rubies and gold chain and male silks, matching his arm braces. His claws are long and yellow on both his hands and feet. He wears a face mask. also adorned with matching accents. Even with all his armor he is no match for Wicca Slayer !”
