When I saw that Comme il Faut was producing a design for Passions of the Black Swan, I was eager to see the result. Moire Georgette’s designs have the timeless glamour of Greta Garbo and I was hoping to see something Garbo would wear and was not disappointed with her offerings, l’oiseau rebel (red) and l’oiseau triste (blue/purple)
A figure hugging sheath dress covers you like a velvet glove until it explodes in burst of feathers -either blue or red. Little bits of stardust sparkle in the fabric catch they eye when you move.
A panache of feathers at the shoulder and a lovely feathered fascinator balance the feathered mermaid’s tail.
I love how each burst of feathers is exponentially larger from top to bottom. You can also see the sexy low sweep of the back in this photo.
Now, if you squint just a bit, can you see Garbo saying “I just vant to be alone” – though funnily enough, she claimed she never said that.

I had to go digging to remind myself about Black Swan, and I hadn’t heard about the fashion show. If this is the calibre of designs that show is inspiring, I’d better start selling more prints!
