Model Tina is decked-out in ballet inspired skirts, ultra soft florals, ribbons and lace, conjuring visions of both Tim Burtonesque film aesthetics and Belle Epoque extravagance. This modern day fairytale is brought to life with unique props by Gary Russell Freeman; a violin, a cat, a horse statue and a sword are a few of the unexpected carnival inspired accoutrements.
Carnival couture doesn't seem to be leaving the realm of fashion any time soon.
