If Maleficent, the evil queen from the Sleeping Beauty fairy tale, was a real person and lived in the modern world, she would probably don each and every look featured in the photoshoot titled Darkling by Elizaveta Porodina, a photographer based in Munich, Germany. The somber images set the mood perfectly for the all-black ensembles.
Yet what really makes the looks in Darkling by Elizaveta Porodina are the regal touches. From the feathered jackets to the curve hugging gowns, the outfits have a powerful presence in the photoshoot. Nevertheless, it is the head cap that really sets them apart from other femme fatale fashion.
Darkling by Elizaveta Porodina was styled by Lorand Lajos and stars muse Albe.
