This beautiful moody interpretation of Pride & Prejudice by LENA ELISEEVA was created to show the complicated feelings of two people, two strong characters, whose pride was overcame by their beautiful love. MARIA VESSSNA designed a stunning lilac gown for the occasion which is befitting for an English maiden.
Lena tells us, ééòThe idea of the Pride and Prejudice story photoshoot, inspired by unfading novel of Jane Austen, appeared quite long ago in my mind. I am absolutely in love with old-fashioned novels since my childhood, thanks to my mother – a philologist, and aesthetics of the nineteenth century inspires me. The costumes, the way of life, atmosphere of beauty and a bygone era of lords and ladies – all this is an inexhaustible source of inspiration. Vintage silver candlesticks and an inkpot, all the atmosphere of an old English library shows off the tenderness and lightness of Elizabeth – lace and silk, messy vintage hairstyle and a stunning flower arrangement full of air. And for sure, the charisma of our Mr. Darcy couldn’t kept us enchanted.
