Embassy Ball Plotting Post
As the Orlesian Ambassador announced here, there's a shindig going down at the Orlesian Embassy this Sunday! This plotting post is going up early to give you an opportunity to decide what you'd like to do and pre-log if so desired!

As Manon stated, the ball is open to anyone, though if you show up looking very scruffy, you'll get some Looks, so do try to look your best, please~
Weapons will be checked at the door.
Most of the doors will be locked, but the guests will have access to the ballroom, its balconies, and the gardens if they so desire. Anyone who wanders off down the hallways will eventually be found and politely escorted back to the party.
Duchess Aurore Valmont is the guest of honor! This is an opportunity for her to take Cumberland's measure.
A small chamber ensemble will provide music for dancing, for those so inclined.
The food will be set out buffet style and replenished at regular intervals. Expect all manner of Orlesian oddities, and of course, a truly impressive dessert table. They're Orlesians, after all.

	Alia likes bold colors. She doesn't do subtle when it comes to her color scheme. So basically jewel tones tbh XD But she will do subtle in the design of the dress in that she would happily wear something that her mother would detest, so basically flamboyant and/or unconventional, but is still generally acceptable at court? IDK IF THAT MAKES SENSE??? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Option 1.) Would be a SUPER FLATTERING color on Alia, the material is of a similar type to what Noëlle will be wearing (but different enough in color/cut to not be twinning or anything), while the cut is very much Not Mother Approved, even though it's light and simple, yet striking enough to potentially be a hit at court.

Option 2.) Another color that would just SING on Alia. The structure and cut are much more formal, classic for our modern sensibilities but would be very daring in the high fantasy setting. Mum probably wouldn't approve but she'd have to admit it looks amazing on Alia.

Option 3.) Because who doesn't want to look vaguely like the night sky?

And if none of these appeal, I'll happily go fashion hunting again. It's literally one of my favorite things to do in this world.

	My achilles heel in fashion hunting is that I am bored to death by men's fashion. So alas, we'll just to ~imagine~ the radiant glory that is whatever the hell Sorin is wearing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

LOL I'll...... admit that while I wrote a man who loves fashion, I don't spend nearly as much time looking at men's fashions as I should. Ahahahahaha. This is the meta reason why Sorin tends to comment on women's fashion more often than men's. Sorin's favorite color is green if that helps any????? (Though his PB tends to wear shades of red or blue when he's actually wearing a shirt???)
