CONCEPT & STORY

Theme: A celebration of Midsummer / Beltane—a merging of magic, fertility, light, and feminine power. Inspired by fairies, forest goddesses, and ancient rituals.

  • Narrative: The models represent a coven of nature spirits gathering for a sacred feast under the midsummer sun and moon, weaving garlands, dancing around a maypole, sharing food, and casting blessings. The day transforms into a mystical candlelit night of enchantment.
