bleu de papillon stage 4

our newest costumes.
all designed by me.

I was inspired by someone who talked to our bassist and the way he talked about us gave me hope. A little light peeping through the darkness.
That's what I felt at the time...bleu de papillon has been forgotten by everyone, or at least we're slowly being forgotten, but because of one person who said something so touching...he gave me hope.
So the theme was "antique/rust/fading away/ masquerade dolls".
For our fabrics we mostly used silk on everything (very expensive costumes this time) and each of us has masquerade masks that represented us.
For this year I didn't want us to look like the "typical Visual Kei" and that's why I changed the color scheme as well as the designs, hairstyles and make-up. I wanted to break the mold of what Visual Kei is "suppose to be" and turn it into "what it could be" or "what it use to be" instead.
