  • Title: The Countess Von Essa
  • Artist: Sweet Cherokee Rose
  • Description:

    She wanders in her woodland garden, mourning for her love.
    Still fancily dressed for the Gala to welcome him home.
    The telegram's fateful words say he fought brave his
    last day of war. Though her heart ached, she never lost her grace.
    The proud Countess Von Essa

    Please note: Her mouth may have a slight smile, but her eyes look sad. The public may not be in her garden, she must keep her composure, as they are waiting at the Gala, not knowing the tragedy yet.

  • Description con't~
    Due to Gaia's description limit, I'm adding this here.
    I designed the dress to be Victorian era. Lace was sometimes used in bodices of Victorian Gothic style ball gowns, with the dress material either at the shoulders as shown on the avatar, or shoulder-less/strapless where only showing the lace on the bodice above the bust and as sleeves. White, ivory (also called Antique White), or black were the colors most often used.

  • Your avatar is lovely as always! I love the Gaia-Sama lips for this one. She looks so graceful. As always, 5'd and fav'd.
    (If this doesn't place, I'll be disappointed with the voters.)

  • I really like the avatar in itself. Especially the layering- The lace beneath the dress is a very nice touch. As is the background.
    But when matched with the description, she seems a little too happy to be mourning. Though prehaps it's a forced smile, to go along with her grace.
    Good luck!
