Winter Jefferson, blogging vampire and tireless organizer of Swansong, whispered in my ear the other night that he had seen the perfect gown for me. Winter doesn’t realize my inventory is FULL of the gowns “perfect for me”—about 450 of them. (Don’t ask…) But, still, hope springs eternal, so I went to check it out.
When I teleported into Black Swan, I saw what he saw. Redheads CAN wear red and THIS redhead loves to wear red. Tabitha Ninetails of the Dancing Academy has outdone herself with this elegant evening gown. From the cleverly constructed décolletage to the careful and beautiful rendering on the system pieces, I can feel the rich fabric lying on my skin, the open back and exposed shoulders caressed by the air, the heavy skirts swirling around my legs with each step. I feel elegant and regal. Winter was soooo right.
I have topped this ensemble with Sky Everett’s Reign in red and a cute pair of earrings Nonna Hedges just sent through that I imagine she has made in Maya. Little diamond-studded Eiffel Towers add a little something different to the ensemble. They aren’t your mother’s pearl studs.
Maitreya’s elegant and sexy Verve pumps complete the outfit.
What she wore to the party:
Hair: Sky Everett Designs Reign/red1 by Sky Everett for Sky Everett Designs
Skin: (ebony & ivory) LIV red by Tura Sirbu for Ebony & Ivory
Dress: *la* Candace Aflame by Tabitha Ninetails for The Laughing Academy being sold now at Black Swan until August 17
Earrings: silver diamond eiffel tower earings by Nonna Hedges for Details by Nonna Hedges
Shoes: Maitreya Verve Pumps – Black2 by Beauvoir Rousselot for Maitreya
