Blackmilk Austen’s Hamlet high-waisted velvet leggings in excellent used condition. These leggings are gorgeous and so comfy. The print on the velvet is so beautiful. I just don’t wear them any more 🖤 These illustrations were created by John Austen for a luxury illustrated edition of Shakespeare’s ‘Hamlet’ in 1922. Austen was clearly influenced by the graphic style of Aubrey Beardsley, and his depictions of Hamlet’s most epic scenes are at once macabre and strangely beautiful. – Made from our super strokable, shiny Velvet fabric – HW stands for high-waisted – designed to sit comfortably (and flatteringly!) at your natural waist Please note: this piece is designed to have the pile of the velvet running upwards, so as you run your hands downwards, it may feel rough (like a cat’s tongue). We use this direction so this print will look vibrant and amazing, just like you. Composition: 90% Polyester, 10% Elastane Washing: Cold machine wash Designed and made at BMHQ in Australia Model’s usual dress size: 8 Aus / BlackMilk XS Height: 5' 8”
