ABSOLUT VODKA presents the “ABSOLUT Sophie” handheld mirror. Before we dive into the details, I’m certain this ominous personality, Sophie Black, should ring a bell. If not, take a peek at her here now.

Back on track. Sophie Black, the illustrator’s alter ego and Bloody Mary, our bar-regular, coalesce as the inspiration of Singapore-based illustrator Sokkuan for the limited edition collectible for ABSOLUT. Sokkuan was the winner of “IN AN ABSOLUT WORLD, Every Drink is an Exceptional Experience” installation during Singapore Design Festival 2009. The dark beauty is executed as a multifaceted mirror boxed in a matching package. This collaborative piece sparks ABSOLUT’s path to encourage cocktail culture in Singapore and celebrates the opening of a new playing field within the cocktail and creative community. Nothing else impresses us compared to a customized cocktail for any event, yes?

Exclusively designed and distributed only at selected outlets in Singapore, this limited edition handheld mirror is a gift item with every 2 bottles purchase of ABSOLUT VODKA. “ABSOLUT Sophie” mirror is available at selected bars and clubs between mid-August and mid-November.

“I adore people and things in harmonious contradictions. Sophie Black, my alter ego who exists in a world of pseudo reality, is the epitome of such paradox. Playing on the well-known Bloody Mary legend, my design of this multifaceted handheld mirror reflects my fascinations with dark, quirky, mysterious yet beautiful essences exuded by both Bloody Mary and Sophie Black. I believe this exquisite gift would allow ABSOLUT’s lovers to relate to the notion behind ABSOLUT Bloody where every drink is an exceptional experience,” says Singapore-based illustrator Sokkuan.
