Chapter One: Swan Lake

Inspired by Swan Lake, the ‘Odette’ crewneck represents forbidden love and heartbreak. In this classic story, the Prince falls in love with Odette, who is cursed to take the form of a swan and can only show her human form by night. Only the promise of faithful, undying love can break Odette’s curse. Here enters the Black Swan, Odile, who disguises herself as Odette in an attempt to win the Prince’s heart and curse Odette forever. Some may read the featured quote “Til Death Do Us Part” as the promise of eternal love, however the quote is a nod to the original twisted ending of Odette’s story where the Prince chooses the wrong woman, accidentally killing his true love, Odette. The featured image, which appears serene and light, represents the ignorance and betrayal that threatens this famous love story.
