The Saga of the Volsungs: Brynhild

Abstract Details

2021, BFA, Kent State University, College of the Arts / School of Fashion.
In the saga, Brynhild, a Valkyrie, angered the god Odin and, in retribution, he pricked her with a thorn which sent her into a long slumber. She was awoken by being cut out of her armor and set free by the dragon slayer, making her one of the oldest tales of Sleeping Beauty. The Saga of the Volsungs has inspired me to create an eveningwear collection rediscovering the ancient origins of Sleeping Beauty through my designs, embroidery, and fabric choices. The Saga of the Volsungs tells a different tale of Sleeping Beauty where she is not a princess but a warrior.
