Akina




Akina is the creation of Australian designer Lang Leav. In her works fairytales are twisted into a topsy turvy world where heroines become the villans. These quirky illustrations are seemingly sweet but have a dark and sinister edge. She released a limited edition book of her tales, as well as applies her works to clothing which i would describe as a victorian/gothic feel, as well as jewellery and little badges. The packaging of her designs alone are simply beautiful. Wished i'd managed to get a copy of her book, but all her designs sell out fast! You can find more at www.akina.com.au
