Our fourth featured artist for our exhibition EVERY MIX TAPE IS A LOVE LETTER as part of the Melbourne Music Week is none other than everyone's favourite fashion blogger FASHION HAYLEY.

Hayley has made a bizarre but eye catching tribute to that Russia's Greatest Love Machine - Rasputin.

Grigori Yefimovich Rasputin is one of the most intense and controversial figures in history. He  was a Russian Orthodox Christian and mystic who is perceived as having influenced the latter days of the Russian Emperor Nicholas II, his wife Alexandra, and their only son Alexei. Some people called Rasputin the "Mad Monk", while others considered  him to be a psychic and faith healer.
Hayley has really captured some of Rasputin's intense mystic vibe with this beard necklace. I love all the brassy and ashy highlights Hayley has in her hair right now.
The beard piece is equally striking worn on your chest.
Hayley says she was inspired to make this piece by the classic Boney M song 'Rasputin'. You know the one - it has that unstoppable pop hook "RAH RAH RASPUTIN"
