Carolyn Murphy Stars in Porter Magazine's #5 Issue

— October 4, 2014 — Pop Culture
Carolyn Murphy stars as a 'Black Swan' in Porter Magazine's #5 issue for Winter 2014.

Murphy looks free as a bird as she contorts her lithe body in a variety of dance-inspired poses. With outstretched arms, delicate tippy-toes and poised mid-air leaps, Murphy is as graceful as Natalie Portman was in the film of the same name.

Fashion editor Tiina Laakkonen draped Murphy's frame in lacy, sheer, all-black ensembles, which might have you wondering if this delicate swan is actually a bird of prey? Her steely-eyed look seems to penetrate past Paola Kudacki's lens, that's for sure. While she may be a little intimidating, Murphy is undoubtedly beautiful in Porter Magazine's #5 issue for Winter 2014.
