Jayne Mabbott of Engima Arcana

There are artists who absolutely blow me away with their ability. From the moment I met Jayne Mabbott of Enigma Arcana, we were floored. I have no ability to do anything with fabrics. It's nothing short of a miracle that I can do laundry. To see the breath taking works of art this woman is capable of creating leaves me in awe.

We met her through another ridiculously talented artist, production designer extraordinaire (and a fellow Hungarian so you know he's absolutely the best of the best) Tony Devenyi. As we hunted for the ultimate designer and wardrober for AMERICAN MARY we had the pleasure of meeting Jayne. Now the greatest sadness of this article is that I cannot show you the pieces she put together or designed for the film, but let me tell you not only are they beautiful, but they're dripping with stylistic cool.

Jayne hails from Wellington, Telford And Wrekin, United Kingdom. She has a killer sense of humor that rivals her incredible sense of style.

She's designed for the Red Carpet of the Emmy's...

She designed Chris Issak's INFAMOUS mirror suit...

See it in action right here...



Her creations vary vastly. There is nothing she can't design and breath life into. Her designs stretch from the seductive and provocative...

... to creations that evoke terror...

... erotic horror...

... pure class and sophistication...

... and embody the bizarre.

Jayne has even designed for Snoop Dogg (oh, snap).

She created the beautiful duds sported by BloodRayne. The outfit was simply gore~geous.

It was nothing short of a privilege to work with her on AMERICAN MARY and her designs are inspirational, breath taking, and bring a life to the people and characters that wear them. I simply cannot wait to share her AMERICAN MARY design with you all. She is truly an incredible woman in horror.

Jayne, we fucking love you.
