Concept:
This is a group of friends on a beautifully wild night out. Each one of their own personality and backstory, yet they come together to support and embrace their differences…

The Runaway is a glorious wild child who fled to become a contortionist in the travelling circus.🎪
The Songbird is a sensitive soul, their heart beats to an emotional - music - drum.🥁
The Mystic is, as the name would suggest, a mystery. Their power is in their mystique.🔍
The Cowboy is sauve, she is THE man.🚬
Angel Baby is soft, flowy, graceful, and ethereal.👼🏻
