SIRCUS Issue 13 · Opulence & Desire

Stone & Sequin

Featuring Darya

Darya in two dresses and two settings: black lace on a stone terrace above the sea by day, emerald sequins above Manhattan after dark.

Darya reclining on a striped lounger on a stone terrace, one hand in her hair, in a strapless black lace dress with a fallen strap, a coupe of champagne beside her and the sea and a headland behind — IA lounger, a coupe, and the whole coast to herself.

Darya seen from behind, leaning on a stone balustrade among white flowers and cypresses, looking out over the sea — IIHer back to the terrace, her eyes on the water.

Darya standing against a cracked plaster wall in hard sunlight, chin raised, in the strapless black lace dress with one strap fallen from her shoulder — IIIHard sun, a plaster wall, and a look that asks nothing.

Darya at night in a penthouse, in a backless emerald and blue sequinned gown, looking back over her shoulder, the Empire State Building lit in the window beside a chandelier — IVAfter dark the lace gives way to sequins.

Darya seated on a brown velvet sofa in the sequinned gown, one hand at her neck and a coupe in the other, candles and white roses around her and the Manhattan skyline behind — VCandlelight, a coupe, and the skyline for a backdrop.

Darya reclining on a velvet chaise in the sequinned gown, looking away to the side, a martini and candles on the table beside her and the city lit beyond the windows

VIThe glass stays full. The city stays lit.
