This shoot was full of surprises, pushing me in ways I hadn’t anticipated and challenging me to embrace Virgo’s quiet strength and meticulous nature. The model becomes a figure of transformation, adorned with moth wings—creatures intimately connected to Virgo’s symbolism. Unlike butterflies, moths are drawn to darkness, to introspection, reflecting the delicate balance between vulnerability and resilience.

The wings, inspired by the “Virgin Moth,” carry the essence of innocence preserved yet fiercely protected. With a sword in hand and a blend of elegant and military-inspired attire, the model embodies the disciplined, precise, and courageous aspects of Virgo. Every detail—from the folds of fabric to the positioning of the wings—was designed to capture the tension between refinement and strength, delicacy and resolve.

This piece celebrates Virgo’s duality: the quiet, inward-focused observer who also possesses the courage to defend and uphold her principles. It’s a tribute to transformation, discipline, and the beauty found in shadows as much as in light.
