“Since 2001 every year in April a growing number of people from all over Europe (23,500 in 2008) to the largest fantasy event in Europe organized the Elf Fantasy Fair. This event takes place around Castle Haarzuilens. Two thirds of these visitors have transformed themselves to Orc, magician, dragon, knight, vampire, elf, unicorn, gothic lolita, manga comic or a combination thereof. The costumes are every year find richer and useful arts. Among the thriving nature of the Chateau, which is the largest castle in the Netherlands, dipping the fantasy lovers are in a pleasant bath of medieval music, dance, lectures, theater performances and parades.” – Kee Spruijt

Emilie Autumn is an anarchist-violinist, vocalist, poet, and sexy redhead whose style leaves me speechless. She makes the incorporation of Dark Cabaret, Victorian, Steampunk, and Goth-Punk fashion seem effortless, without the appearance of going over the top.
Brasky Sweethearts highly approve of her style and hope more women juxtapose fashion aesthetics.
However… we were disappointed to discover that it’s a lot more appealing than her music. (And she’s associated with Courtney Love? Ugh.)
She’s released five albums, but is best known for Opheliac, which was released in 2006 by Trisol Music Group GmbH.
If you’d like to recommend songs for me to listen to, please free to do so. For now, I’ll only be appreciating her corsets, layered dresses, stockings, and heart-shaped patches. (And who could ignore her amazing figure?) Bring on the controversy.
