Wahre Märchen: The Art of Annie Bertram
I did an interview via email with artist Annie Bertram recently for Sorean Magazine. The text of the article is pasted below. Annie is an amazing artist who puts her heart into what she does, extremely kind, and I’m so glad I got to do this interview with her. She was wonderful and gave some great answers.

Vecona Clothing
Vecona is a German couturier that makes Victorian-inspired, long-skirted, many-petticoated, tattered, Frankenstein-esque wisps of affairs. Their style ranges from historical gowns to deathrock-inspired clothing, but the Victorian influence is definitely a heavy, prominent one. Vecona outfits various musicians such as Anna-Varney of Sopor Aeternus, Lucas Lanthier of Cinema Strange and The Deadfly Ensemble, and Emilie Autumn. Most of the pieces in their collections are separates that match and layer to create a perfectly extravagant, many-parted outfit with hoops, bustles, and all. Visit Vecona’s site here. I have exactly one piece from Vecona, but wish I had so many more.
