Theme: Dark AcademiaÂ
Dark Academia fashion has became a social media phenomenon in 2021. The 1930s and 1940s features prominently in the Dark Academia aesthetic, especially clothing items worn by students at Oxbridge, Ivy League schools, and prep schools of that period. Some of the articles of clothing most associated with the aesthetic include cardigans, blazers, dress shirts, plaid skirts, Oxford Shoes, and clothing made of houndstooth & tweed, its color palette consisting mainly of black, white, beige, browns, dark green, and occasionally navy blue. The subculture also draws on idealised aesthetics of higher education and academia, often with books and libraries featuring prominently. Seasonal imagery of autumn & winter are also common. Imagery of Gothic architecture, candlelight, dark wooden furniture, and dense, cluttered rooms often occurs in Dark Academia. Imagery shares similarities with Goth subculture, tending to romanticise the finding of beauty and poetry in dark themes. For theme inspiration, search #DarkAcademia on Instagram or check out this Pintrest gallery here.Â
Portrait slams celebrate diversity, self-expression, style, individuality and creativity. Let us know if you have questions about our theme and, as always, don't be afraid to get weird.
Models:Â
Please arrive dressed in theme and ready to shoot. A Dark Academia inspired wardrobe will be provided on location by WavvzNewAge for models to incorporate into their look, beginning at 1pm - please don't miss this! A prize will be awarded to the model who rocks WavvzNewAge's wardrobe with the most creativity and style. Bring base neutrals you're confident in, and comfortable shoes to take full advantage of the large space. We begin each slam by pairing everyone up. Please be prepared to work with many different photographers in quick 10 minute sessions.Â
