JUDAS THE HORNED BRETRAYER

For this summer/fall, we of PRINCE NOIR DESIGNS (http://www.facebook.com/pages/Prince-Noir/110065292414634)shall be designing a series of collections. Our first collection is titled “JUDAS the Horned Betrayer”. Our first inspiration behind our collection was a spark of curiosity of the whole idea and wondering of the betrayal of Jesus Christ.The spark of “why did Judas betray Jesus?”

There are only two reasons why a person would betray a most beloved friend on such a grand scale.
One being jealousy, the other being love.

This concept sparked interest to a certain extent; however, we never got inspired to pursue to do it until the release of Lady Gaga’s “Judas”. We were blown away by the song and music video and the passion for our collection ignited.

From this point, we decided to call it “JUDAS the Horned Betrayer”. We thought it would be interesting to use something that is naturally a concept used in couture fashion and apply it to Gothic and Lolita fashion instead.

We created a little story and six characters, which are what each of our outfits are based on in our collection.

The first character is Jesus
(The King of Gold and Light)

The second character is Mary Magdalene
(Judgment of the Harlot)

The third character is the Dark Disciple

The fourth character is the Nun

The fifth character is the Holy Fool

The sixth character is Judas himself
(The Horned Betrayer)

We are still debating on adding the seventh character, whom we named The Child of Stigmata. However, we are still unsure depending on the time frame we have. We plan on presenting “JUDAS the Horned Betrayer” collection at a fashion show that will be hosted in the Bay Area or Sacramento some time in August or September. Details have yet to be established by Laura L. Witzig, co-founder of the Synchro Group. Hopefully once they have chosen a date and location, we shall inform everyone when we will be debuting our fashion show.

Until then, stay dark and elegant.

XOXO,

Prince Noir
