Black Swan ^ Ekaterina Vladi by Andrej Peredireev

Wie eine schwarze Fledermaus... Like a black bat...

All picture credits below.

Vor genau einem Jahr erschien dieses großartige Photo erstmals in diesem Blog in meinem Post "A real scary Halloween". Das Bild erinnerte mich damals an eine Fledermaus mit gespreizten Flügeln. Wie bei vielen im Netz aufgefundenen Photos blieb aber zunächst unklar, von wem es ist und aus welchem Kontext es stammt (und ich höre nicht auf, Euch Social Media-Nutzer*innen mit diesem Thema auf die Nerven zu gehen, bis Ihr Euer respektloses Verhalten gegenüber Künstler*innen, Models, Photograph*innen und anderen Kulturschaffenden in Form des fast schon mutwilligen Verschweigens von Autor*innenschaft und Akteuren endlich aufgebt!). Da ich mir schon dachte, dass es sich um ambitioniertere Fashion-Photographie handeln würde, machte ich mich also mal wieder erfolgreich auf die dennoch immer etwas mühsame Suche nach den Beteiligten. Pünktlich zu Halloween 2016 gibt es nun heute in unserer Serie "Legendary Fashion Shoots" Photos aus diesem – schon wieder russischen! – Shooting von Andrej Peredireev mit dem Model Ekaterina Vladi. Und siehe da: die schwarze Fledermaus ist ein schwarzer Schwan! Und was für eine*r...

[English translation below]

Streng: Ekaterina Vladi als schwarzer Schwan auf einer Wiese am Waldrand.

Hier sehen wir auch das Korsett en détail, und auch die Ballett-Referenz in Ausdruck und Pose wird klarer.
Tough: Ekaterina Vladi as black swan on a meadow at the edge of the woods.
Here we also see the corset in detail, and the ballet reference in expression and pose gets clearer.

Exactly one year ago, the great header photo was published for the first time in this blog in my post "A real scary Halloween". To me, at that time the picture was reminiscent of a bat with spread wings. But as with many photos found in the web, at first it remained unclear by whom it was made and out of which context it originates (and regarding this topic, I will not stop to get on the nerves of social media users until you finally give up your disrespectful behavior towards artists, models, photographers and other cultural creatives in form of the almost fraudulent concealment of authorship and actors!). As I was quite sure that it's about a more ambitious fashion photography, I started – once again successfully – the nevertheless always a bit laborious search for the participants. Just in time for Halloween 2016, in our series "Legendary Fashion Shoots" now today here are photos from this – yet again Russian! – shooting by Andrew Peredireev with model Ekaterina Vladi. And lo and behold: the black bat is a black swan! And what a special one...

Glamour takes time. A video portrait of the beautiful Marlene von Steenvag

While preparations for STYLE! IT! TAKES! # 4 at Berlin Fashion Week in January 2014 are running already, more and more reviews of and links to our project are being published. Last January film director Arthur Paul Heisler accompanied our dancer MARLENE VON STEENVAG at STYLE! IT! TAKES! # 2 with his camera, from her flat and her journey to the venue to beautiful scenes in the small backstage-room to her gorgeous performances on our stage at Grüner Salon der Volksbühne at Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, where our event happened that time. Out of these wonderful scenes and with music of the R & B act BEΛR//FVCE from Northern Ireland Arthur has created a video, which is just as glamorous as that evening and the artist herself. In the backstage-room you can also see our artist Nora Below, fashion designer Gregor Marvel and Tommy Dollar (Thomas Dellert Dellacroix) for a very short time. What an amazingly beautiful video!!! ♥

Während bereits die Vorbereitungen für STYLE! IT! TAKES! # 4 zur Berlin Fashion Week im Januar 2014 laufen, erscheinen immer wieder neue Rückblicke und Verweise auf unser Projekt. Der Filmer Arthur Paul Heisler hat unsere Tänzerin MARLENE VON STEENVAG vergangenen Januar bei STYLE! IT! TAKES! # 2 mit seiner Kamera begleitet, von ihrer Wohnung über die Anfahrt bis hin zu schönen Szenen im kleinen Backstage-Raum und ihren großartigen Auftritten auf unserer Bühne im Grünen Salon der Volksbühne am Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz, wo die Veranstaltung damals stattfand. Aus diesen wunderschönen Aufnahmen hat Arthur zu Musik des nordirischen R & B-Acts BEΛR//FVCE ein Video zusammengestellt, welches genauso glamourös ist wie der damalige Abend und die Künsterin selbst. Im Backstage-Raum sind auch kurz unsere Künstlerin Nora Below, der Mode-Designer Gregor Marvel und Tommy Dollar (Thomas Dellert Dellacroix) zu sehen. Was für ein wunderschönes Video!!! ♥

MARLENE VON STEENVAG performs MISS MOSS CORSETS

@ STYLE! IT! TAKES! # 2 - Night of Fashion, Performances & Music /
Grüner Salon der Volksbühne / Berlin-Mitte / Berlin Fashion Week 18. Januar 2013

Germany's most glamorous Burlesque artist MARLENE VON STEENVAG opened the second Night of Fashion, Performances & Music performing MISS MOSS CORSETS with an amazing show called 'Bird of Paradise'. In the middle and center of this performance Marlene showed a breathtaking handmade corset by our great designer Miss Moss from MISS MOSS CORSETS.

Marlene started her dance with huge white-transparent Egyptian Love Goddess ISIS-style wings reflecting all the colours like a rainbow, in a wonderful white dress and with beautiful white flowers in her hair...

Beside being Goddess of Love, ISIS is also recognized as Goddess taking care of the Dead, as Goddess of the Sea, Mother of the Sun and Goddess of the Moon, to mention just a few...

With her phantastic wing dance (greatly to be seen in the video by Martin Fürstenberg, see link below), Marlene showed her wonderful white dress wearing beautiful white gloves and gorgeous jewelry...

Blossoms everywhere...

And then we got to see her amazing MISS MOSS CORSET - breathtakingly beautiful...

The phantastic colours reminded me a bit of the movie Marie Antoinette, and I wasn't far off, as fashion designer Miss Moss cites historical costumes as her main influences... Meeoooooow!

The underbust corset of pink satin covered with luxurious blue lace was handmade by Miss Moss and has so many wonderful details... so lovely! ♥

Making the corset, Miss Moss and Marlene von Steenvag worked very closely together:

“The corset was tailor made to Marlene's measurements.

Marlene really likes to pull her corsets tightly so I had to pay special attention to the size of the waist – making sure it could be small enough for her to tight lace if she wants to!
Marlene and I pretty much chose the fabrics at the fabric shop, we worked together to find out what she needed and what she fancied!”

(Miss Moss / MISS MOSS CORSETS)

In addition to Miss Moss' corset (in the picture above you can see the beautiful inside of it), Marlene used the rest of the fabrics Miss Moss and Marlene chose before to create these fitting dessous herself: a holder-neck bra with wonderful details, a beautiful slip with bows at the sides, nipple pasties plus a belt with garters.

In the last phase, Marlene turned her performance into a wonderful feather dance with huge pink ostrich-feather fans, but ending in a mussel. Is the Goddess of Love after transforming into a princess, a queen, a dancer, a stripper, a bird finally returning to the sea or is she turning to stone in the palaces, gardens and parks of the world...?
