#Floral Bracelet Choker

[thepastisalreadywritten]

The Danish Emerald Parure

Perhaps the jewel in the Queen’s crown collection is her Emerald Parure.

Created in 1840 for Queen Caroline Amalie, the set includes a tiara, a necklace, earrings, and a corsage brooch.

27 of the diadem’s emeralds date back to 1723, making the collection incredibly historically significant.

While the colour is in-keeping with the current Queen Margrethe’s more outlandish style, we can see Crown Princess Mary reaching for the tiara or earrings for big state events.

The Danish Ruby Parure

Crown Princess Mary has already made herself familiar with this unique piece.

Like a naughty daughter venturing into a mother's wardrobe, Mary has not waited until her ascension to borrow this spectacular ruby set even adorning the headpiece for her and Crown Prince Frederik's official ascension portraits.

Made for the coronation of Napoleon in 1804, the parure includes the intricately designed crown, necklace, brooch, and earrings.

The Danish Crown Diamond Parure

This necklace, brooch, and earring set has timeless beauty.

Made for Queen Caroline Amalie in 1840, the parure is reserved only for the most significant occasions, such as the wedding of Mary and Frederik in 2004.

As such, the pieces will undoubtedly hold a special place in both Margrethe and Mary's hearts.

The Floral Bracelet Choker

The choker has recently come back into fashion, and Margarethe shows this floral piece off well in a boat-necked gown.

This is one of Margrethe's favourite pieces, leading us to wonder if she will part with her jewels as well as the crown on Sunday.

The timeless piece belonged to Queen Louise of Sweden and was initially designed as a bracelet, though the always-innovating Margrethe started wearing it as a choker in the 1980s.

The Crown Pearl and Ruby Parure with the Floral Aigrette Tiara

This parure is an extensive set, including a large pearl necklace, pearl, ruby and diamond earrings, two pearl clasps, and two ruby and diamond links.

The parure was worn here with the Floral Aigrette diadem.

The leafy diamond structure was acquired by King Frederik IX for Queen Margrethe's mother in the 1960s.

The piece is versatile and can be separated to lessen the overall effect, which may be favourable for Mary's more subtle style.

Queen Margrethe has revealed that her hairdresser enjoys styling her hair using the dazzling pieces.

The Turquoise Daisy Bandeau

This girlish beauty has already been passed along to Mary.

The flowery headpiece is elegant and playful, featuring a band of delicate daisies in a bold aquamarine.

The Palmette Tiara

This curly crown is more effeminate than Mary's current fashion would indicate. Having said that, its intricate beauty and alluring sparkle is undeniable.

The tiara is made up of diamond palmettes and flowers, set upon a link-effect diamond base.

The piece was created in 1856 for Princess Louise of Prussia when she married Grand Duke Frederick.

Queen Ingrid lent Queen Margrethe the diadem in the 1960s, before she officially inherited it on her mother's passing in 2000.

Most notably, she has worn it to the wedding of Crown Prince Haakon of Norway and the wedding of Princess Märtha Louise of Norway.

Analysis of Maria's outfit (In Silent Hill 2 Remake)

So, ages ago, I did an analysis of Maria's OG design, which you can read here. I said I'd do one to remake Maria, and I did, but I didn't expect her outfit to change so drastically. I also made the post straight after Maria was first revealed, so the game wasn't even out yet. That, mixed with the fact that, at first, I did NOT like Maria's new design, led me to be a bit biased with my analysis, so I thought I'd redo it now that the game is actually out, and my initial dislike of her outfit has gone down. It's not a bad outfit; it's just that the original Maria design is one of my favourite designs ever, so seeing it change made me a bit upset. Anyways, here's the actual analysis.

New Maria's outfit features a black satin dress with a leopard-print pattern. Over this dress, she wears a raspberry pink leather jacket that is open at the front, secured with a strap with a golden-hoop buckle. Instead of a golden coin, her choker is now entirely black, with a golden hoop holding it together. She has chosen brown-heeled boots that are very similar to her original design. Consistent with her original style, she also accessorises with jewellery, including a silver ring and a black bracelet adorned with a moon design. It's important to note that her ring is not on her ring finger. For makeup, Maria continues to wear pink eyeshadow and faint lipstick, giving her a more natural and realistic appearance. While her hair still features pink tips, they are now less noticeable than in her original design.

Just like her original counterpart, Maria looks visually similar to James' late wife, Mary. The only noticeable difference is that Maria has blue eyes instead of Mary's brown. Mary's outfit in the remake has hardly been changed. Her hairstyle is slightly different, but she still wears her pink cardigan and floral dress. Interestingly, in my other analysis, I brought up the fact that Maria's outfit reflected Mary's in a darker, more seductive way. Maria wore a cardigan just like Mary, but her's was dark pink. She also wore a patterned dress, but Maria's was an animal-patterned skirt whilst Mary's was a floral-patterned dress. Both wore rings, but Mary's was her wedding ring whilst Maria's was just jewellery.

Here, Maria's new outfit is MORE similar to Mary's attire. Maria now wears a dress instead of a two-piece, and it's layered with pink outerwear just like Mary. Her dress is still patterned with animal print instead of flowers, but it's more subtle than the original design. Most of her rings have been removed, except for ONE, which looks visually similar to a wedding ring, even if it's on the wrong finger. Her jacket is also more noticeably pink. The original Maria wore an outfit with pink and maroon hues, which borderlined on purple in some areas, whilst the new Maria is explicitly pink. It's dark pink, but it's still pink. Mary always wears light pink and white colours, and the new Maria wears dark pink and black colours, which is much more of a parallel to the original Maria, who was similar to Mary in many ways, but at the same time, her outfit was too dissimilar to Mary's.

This has a similar effect to what the original Maria design was doing. It was clearly shown to connect her to Mary, but it wasn't so similar that it was apparent she was Mary. What's funny here is that Maria ironically seems to be trying to be more similar to Mary with her new design. It's ironic because Maria was initially meant to serve as a more seductive and sensual version of Mary, to feed into James' intrusive desires, but now, as time has gone on and James has gone through more and more loops, it seems slowly her outfit is shifting to be more like Mary. This could be why her outfit is kinda weird. I've said this before, but it's not the kind of outfit you could see a regular woman wearing. The original Maria had this vibe to her, too, where her outfit seemed aesthetic and fashionable, but actually seeing somebody out in the street wearing it would be weird. Similarly, we know Maria is a pole dancer, so even then, her outfit does NOT fit her career either. Somebody pointed out in my original analysis that Maria's outfit isn't wholly original; it's based on an outfit Christina Aguillera wore, and thus, it is an outfit real people would wear, but you gotta remember Christina Aguilera is a famous singer, and EVEN then the outfit isn't something she wore out and about it was an outfit she wore to the teen choice awards. My point is that even the real-life equivalent of Maria's outfit is not something a normal person would wear, either casually or professionally. New Maria is the same; it doesn't look like a real outfit, as I said before. This new outfit seems to merge old Maria and Mary's clothes until we're left with a strange blend between a pop star's sexy leopard-print-themed maroon outfit and a regular woman's pastel floral outfit. Like I said in my original analysis, it's a very uncanny valley, which makes sense since the entire town of Silent Hill is rather uncanny.

Now, that's the end of my actual "outfit" analysis, but I have more to say about her new character below.

Now, a thing I want to mention that I didn't bring up in my original analysis is her personality. The new Maria seems less manipulative and more natural than her original counterpart, which adds to the popular theory that this game is actually one of the many loops James goes through in Silent Hill. It makes sense that she'd adapt to better suit James' needs after being rejected many times. Of course, she'd never fully satisfy him; even the "Maria" Ending leaves her sick and likely dying. Her new outfit seems like a reflection of this, along with her new personality. She starts off like regular Maria, and then as time goes on and James resets hundreds of times, dying or ending up back in Silent Hill, Maria slowly evolves and changes to be more like what James really desires: Mary. Her outfit would reflect this, and although she'd be more like Mary, she'd still keep her seductive allure as a means to tempt James. Adding to this theory, in the endings, whenever James rejects Maria, she is more sympathetic than initially. In the original, she is pissed and instantly turns into a monster to attack James. In the new one, she cries and is so desperate to get James to like her, even though she subconsciously knows she's already been rejected many times. A thing I noticed is that in the original game, when she transforms, it's because she's pissed James rejected her. Here, after James rejects her and tries to be nice about it, Maria initially doesn't transform, and after she stops crying, she says she can't let him go. The way she says it reads to me like she's had this conversation many times and is so desperate that she says shit like this.

How to Dress for Making Offerings to Lalla Malika?

💜 Wear fancy clothes in purple, pink, green, multicoloured or with gold embroidery (purple is the most common).

💜 Shoes with embellishments are good too, especially if they're in one of her colours. I have a pair of pink ballet slippers with pearls, black rhinestones and small gold studs that I wear with my dress (a blush pink djellaba with gold embroidery). High heels are common.

💜 Female followers wear makeup when giving offerings. She's known for her love of cosmetics so her devotees honour this, applying lipstick, eyeshadow, blush, foundation, mascara, brow pencil, kohl and sometimes lipgloss (it's uncommon for men to wear makeup but I know of one male devotee who does).

💜 One description of a female devotee's outfit:

"Iman sat at the center of the sofa, surrounded by cushions. She wore a long, elegant takšiṭa in violet with gold paillettes sewn specifically for the occasion. Her smooth hair fell over her shoulders, revealing long gold-dangling earrings. Her eyelids and lips were tinted in sparkling violet, and her nails were painted the same color. Around her neck was a long gold necklace with a large pendant made from a piece of ʿūd al-qumari — the incense for Malika."

💜 A second description of another outfit the same devotee wore:

"Iman made her entrance. Adorned in ceremonial attire (crafted a year earlier for this special occasion), a purple tulle veil adorned with sequins covering her face and shoulders, and wearing numerous bracelets and rings, among which stood out a large purple stone, she held a perfume bottle in her hand as she presented herself to the assembly, moving slowly toward the throne."

💜 Male devotees must be clean shaven.

💜 Both male and female followers style their hair nicely. It doesn't matter if it's long or short, straight or curly, just as long as it's styled. Daughters and sons of Malika often go to the hairdresser before attending gatherings in her honour, but styling your hair by yourself is acceptable.

💜 Jewellery is worn by both males and females. Men often wear gold bracelets, watches and rings, and women go all out - earrings, bracelets, necklaces, chokers, and rings, frequently with purple stones or beads to match their dresses but not always. Any jewellery is fine as long as it's beautiful. Jewellery should always be purified before wearing for the ritual.

💜 Female followers like to wear rings with purple stones, as it's believed Malika wears a purple ring - I have read many accounts of followers saying they dreamt of her visiting them and giving them a ring.

💜 Women may also wear accessories like headbands and headscarves in her colours, as well as mdemma (gold or silver belts), embellished hair pins and even tiaras. Men sometimes wear purple scarves around their necks, and tarbouches.

💜 Women get henna done. This is often a part of the ritual itself - at parties in honour of Malika, there will be a henna artist present who draws designs on the ladies' hands. Malika prefers tree-fill over dot fill henna, and intricate artistic styles are strongly associated with her, especially Fassi style henna and delicate floral designs. Men occasionally get henna done too although it's less common.

💜 Women also like to get their nails manicured, often in purple. At a minimum nails should be neat and well shaped.

💜 Both sexes wear perfume and cologne. This can also be part of the ritual, with followers sometimes spraying themselves with perfume as they dance to her rih (a folk song in honour of her). Any perfume is fine, but she especially loves fine colognes, and her favourite scents are oud and sandalwood (several sources say she also likes pure musk, which in Morocco is commonly used as a solid perfume or in the form of attar).

💜 Even assistants at the ritual, despite their roles as mere servants, are required to dress their best: everyone present must honour Lalla Malika with elegance and graceful behaviour, devotee or not.

💜 Before putting on your ritual outfit, it's important to wash thoroughly. One account I read of people preparing for the celebration reads:

"The nails are cut, the unwanted hair is removed. On the face they come applied herbal masks and perfumed oils, the hair is treated with henna and clay. The body is entirely covered with a mixture of henna and water, rubbed with a grain glove thick, wet and rubbed again. This operation, which lasts about half an hour, is carried out with the help of the escorts or, in exchange for a few coins, a body cleaner. This removes all impurities from the skin. The glove is shown and inspected repeatedly with the woman, an operation accompanied by exclamations about how dirty it was with dead skin. Another service that can be requested within the ḥammam is massage, with oils essential, which may be required for pleasant relaxation. Then we proceed to the second phase: the treatment with soap and shampoo. The body is washed first with traditional soap, then with a finer flavored soap. Hair is washed, combed, smoothed. At the end of the bath, the woman goes to the hairdresser and make-up artist before returning to home."

DCA Info Part 66: Dorm Leader 3rd Edition Redesigns (Part 2)

View Part 1

Much like their Dorm Fairy companions, the girls also got redesigned! The reason being is that Phoenix felt she was making them look to simple. So she chose to once again redesign them, only this time, designing them to cater more to their preferences and personalities, as well as matching the aesthetics of each Disney Princesses' respective movies.

📚 Rozeline Pierrette

Rozeline's new ensemble was created to represent both Belle and Beast. As well as being an ensemble that looks conservative or old school, not caring for aesthetic outfits and just picked an old pattern from the dress book. Her now unkempt hair is dark brown with a single white streak.

Rozeline's ensemble consists of a muted navy blue long puff sleeve bolero jacket with gold trim with the collar having gold circular roses and the sleeves having white cuffs. She also wears a yellow maxi skirt with muted navy blue and gold trim. For footwear, Rozeline wears a pair of black and white heeled Oxford shoes with gray leggings.

Rozeline accessorizes with a black veil that covers her eyes attached to a muted navy blue bonnet with gold trim, pale yellow roses and black horns, a white ruffle tie, a pale yellow rose brooch with a muted yellow gem brooch in the center and pale tan ribbon with gold trim, a gold belt with ribbon detailing, black gloves and a muted gold crown ring with a yellow jewel on her right index finger.

🏝️ Vidya Nazari

Vidya's ensemble is meant to be a fusion of both Aladdin and Jasmine's respective ensembles, with the top portion taking inspiration from Aladdin's Prince Ali persona. The purple sash was a gift from Kalim and not only serves as a reference to the Magic Carpet, but also reference Kalim's hometown.

Vidya's ensemble consists of a black tunic worn underneath a bedlah top with off-the-shoulder straps with gold accents and matching salwar pants with a gold V-shaped waistline with an opening below the knees and gold trim. For footwear, Vidya wears a pair of curled shoes that are muted navy and feature gold soles and accents.

Vidya accessorizes with a pale gold tiara with a blue diamond-shaped jewel in the center, a pair of blue diamond shaped jewel earrings, a gold choker with blue diamonds, gold shoulder pads with hanging gold threads with a blue diamond brooch in the center, a gold bracelet with blue diamond jewels, a purple sash with floral and swirl designs and gold trim, a gold waist chain with blue diamonds, gold rings above her shoes and a pale gold crown ring with a blue jewel on her left index finger.

🐲 Jinlong Esi

Jinlong received a very notable redesign, now resembling more of an eastern dragon while also possessing turquoise horns, off red nails, three pointed toes with red claws, and a red tail with teal spikes and gold underbelly, the tail also has copper colored fluff at the tip. Jinlong's hair is now in a single ponytail.

Jinlong's ensemble consists of a navy blue martial arts tunic with gold trim, a maroon collar with teal circular gems attached to gold tassels and maroon cuffs with gold detailing. Underneath the tunic is a pair of blue-green pants with gold trim. For footwear, Jinlong sports a pair of navy blue sandals with maroon detailing and straps.

Jinlong accessorizes with a teal earring on her left ear, a pair of oversized turquoise bracelets, a maroon belt with gold trim and designs with a large circular gold brooch with a turquoise gem embedded in the center, and a gold crown ring with a maroon jewel on her right index finger.

🐻 Elu Sorrel

Elu has a slightly more muscular physique due to being a hunter while her ensemble looking more modern and much like Allison and Jinlong, offering more mobility. To avoid making her look to similar to Leona, Elu's braids were moved to be around her ears (though not shown in the picture above).

Elu's ensemble consists of a tan sleeveless turtleneck tunic with baggy pants that include fringes worn underneath what appears to be a brown corset with the bottom having fringes and a dark teal corset with various pale red diamond details and pale red threads. For footwear, Elu wears a pair of light tan boots with teal and white straps and fringes near one of the ends.

Elu accessorizes with a brown cloak with a white trimmed fur hood with the bottom featuring a teal and red diamond design and fringes, a pair of gold goggles, pale red arm bands with teal beads, a brown necklace with red and teal beads with a brown brooch with an orange gem embedded inside and teal, white, red feathers with red beads, brown gloves and a pale gold crown ring with an orange jewel on her left index finger.

🐸 Perrine Bousquet

Perrine ensemble bears some resemblance to the flapper dress that Tiana wears at the end of The Princess and the Frog, while also wanting to match the aesthetics of the 1920s. Perrine's hair is now a golden blonde curly bob cut and she now has green eyeshadow.

Perrine's ensemble consists of an off white green tinted blouse worn underneath a pastel green dress with the top portion resembling a blazer, with green lapels and cuffs. For footwear, Perrine wears a pair of green pumps, a style popular with working women in the 1920s as they featured minimal decorations and were less expensive than trendy strap shoes or lattice pumps.

Perrine accessorizes with a green cloche hat with a light green satin ribbon with a yellow flower with green leaves and a green circular gem in the center, a silver necklace with a green gem pendant, a yellow flower brooch with green leaves and a vine as well as a silver circular brooch with floral detailing and a circular green gem in the center, a pair of pastel green gloves and a silver crown ring with a green jewel on her left index finger.

GalaxyCon Raleigh

Last weekend I was lucky enough to attend days 2-4 of GalaxyCon Raleigh, and meet Harvey in person! I'll write more about that on my personal blog, but here I want to write up Harvey's outfits for the weekend, for three reasons:

I love his con style and how he's always wearing clothes that seem comfy but are also stylish.

I finally found the source for one of his fabulous shirts and I'm excited!

I may have contributed an accessory to his outfit on Saturday (I'm fine I'm totally normal about this).

Without further ado, let's start with Saturday!

Saturday

Harvey arrived at the autograph tables on Saturday sporting a red stadium jersey, much like this one from EPTM USA.

This boxy-fit jersey is a heavyweight polyester mesh and has loose, short sleeves and a crew neck. It comes in sizes up to 2XL (60-inch chest measurement) and is regularly priced at $40 (currently on sale for $30).

He styled this with a black tank-top underneath the jersey, his black overalls, black sneakers, an LA Dodgers cap worn backwards, and a silver aluminum tab choker necklace with a heart pendant. Harvey explained that the necklace was made of recycled materials, and was a handmade gift from a friend.

The Dodgers cap appears to be part of the New Era 59Fifty fitted field series. The 59Fifty website describes the brand as "the originator of the true fitted New Era's flagship style and an icon in sport and street culture. It is worn on the field of play by athletes worldwide." You can find similar caps on the 59Fifty site, in prices ranging from $41 to $99, or this specific cap is available from several sellers on eBay.

The sneakers really intrigue me, because they're another example of the specificity of Harvey's accessories. The sneakers are black lace-up high tops with an oversized tongue, black soles, and a side snap buckled strap at the ankle. I have been able to find sneakers with three or four of those traits. I have yet to find an exact match to all of them, but I plan to keep looking! I may do a separate post on Harvey's casual footwear, actually.

Lastly, if you saw Harvey early at autographs, you might have noticed a new addition to his outfit later in the day: a stack of iridescent blue-black beaded bracelets with silver letters. These are friendship bracelets I made and brought to the autograph table, and I was extremely touched that Harvey not only put them on immediately there at the table, but wore them for the rest of the day and even posted them on his Instagram stories a couple of days later.

The silver letters on each bracelet spell out one of the names of Harvey's character from Blue Beetle: José Francisco Morales Rivera De La Cruz. The name on each bracelet is bracketed by cylindrical mood beads which change color with body temperature. Harvey revealed in his Instagram story that he added the De La Cruz onto the end of the scene, and director Angel Manuel Soto chose to keep it in. Harvey shares many fans' headcanon that Guillermo and the Doctor are related!

Sunday

On Sunday Harvey arrived to photo ops wearing a brightly-colored floral shirt that, if you follow his social media, you may have seen a few times before!

This Camicia comoda con stampa a fiori vivace (Comfortable Shirt with lively flower print) is a lightweight 100% viscose button-up from ASOS DESIGN Italy. It comes in sizes up to 4XL (54-56-inch chest), and is currently on sale for 21.24€ (originally retailed for 24.99€).

Harvey styled this with black shorts, black platform lace-up ankle boots, and his Heart of the Ocean replica necklace (a Titanic reference that might set your head spinning if you've ordered the @wwcitszine Volume 4--and if you haven't, you should!). He was also sporting another colorful stack of friendship bracelets, though I unfortunately don't know the details on those!

Heart of the Ocean replicas can be found many places online. I'm partial to these Etsy offerings, all under $50:

Titanic Necklace from BruarCards, $26.79

Heart of the Ocean Prop Replica from ReelArtTreasures, $39.99

I've talked shorts before, but I'm partial to these Old Navy Slim Built-In Flex Rotation Chino Shorts in color Black Jack. They have an 8-inch inseam and are available in up to size 54W. Currently on sale for $13.49!

I'm still looking for the boots. Look for that footwear post coming (hopefully) soon!

11 Meaningful Pieces In Catherine’s Jewellery Collection That Belonged To Queen Elizabeth II

By Emily Chan

6 December 2023

First worn by the Princess of Wales in June at the wedding of Crown Prince Hussein of Jordan and Princess Rajwa Al Saif in Amman, Jordan, the Greville chandelier earrings were seen on Queen Elizabeth II throughout her reign.

The dazzling diamond earrings made by Cartier were a wedding gift to Her late Majesty from her parents – the Queen Mother had inherited them from Dame Margaret Helen Greville, a British socialite, in 1918.

Catherine was most recently seen wearing the jewels at a Diplomatic Corps reception at Buckingham Palace.

On Remembrance Sunday this year, Catherine debuted a pair of diamond and pearl leaf earrings that were previously seen on the Queen during a visit to Nigeria back in 2003.

Some experts believe that the earrings may have been detachable pieces from the brooch featuring the same design.

Commissioned by King George VI, Queen Elizabeth II’s Festoon necklace features 105 loose diamonds that her father inherited when he ascended the throne.

Featuring three strands, the monarch wore the piece on numerous occasions throughout her life, from attending state banquets to posing for official portraits.

The Princess of Wales paid tribute to Her late Majesty by wearing the piece for the official Coronation photograph when King Charles III officially assumed the throne on 6 May.

The Princess of Wales wore Queen Elizabeth II’s three-strand pearl necklace – an item Her Majesty was famous for – during a Buckingham Palace lunch for the governors-general of the Commonwealth nations prior to the monarch’s funeral in September 2022.

The then Princess Elizabeth received this jaw-dropping diamond necklace by Cartier from the Nizam of Hyderabad as a wedding gift in 1947.

Featuring a rose motif, the royal picked the necklace herself, along with a matching floral tiara.

The Princess of Wales first wore the statement piece at a gala for the National Portrait Gallery in 2014, before rewearing it at a Buckingham Palace reception for the Diplomatic Corps in 2019.

Queen Elizabeth II was first photographed wearing these diamond and pearl earrings during her Silver Jubilee celebrations – marking 25 years on the throne – in 1977.

Catherine has sported the earrings a number of times in the past, including after Prince Louis’ birth in 2018 and while visiting Commonwealth troops ahead of the Queen’s funeral.

Queen Elizabeth II commissioned royal jeweller Garrard to create this four-strand pearl and diamond choker, using pearls sourced from Japan in the early 1980s.

Princess Diana was loaned the piece for a state banquet in honour of Queen Beatrix of the Netherlands in 1982, while the current Princess of Wales has worn the necklace on several occasions, including for Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip’s 70th wedding anniversary in 2017 and Her Majesty’s funeral in 2022.

The Princess of Wales debuted Queen Elizabeth II’s emerald and diamond earrings during an evening reception in Jamaica in 2022, along with a matching bracelet.

Both pieces are from Her late Majesty’s emerald tassel suite, which the monarch first wore at a state dinner held for Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan of the United Arab Emirates at London’s Claridge’s Hotel in 1989.

First worn by Queen Elizabeth II during the 1990s, the Princess of Wales has borrowed Her late Majesty’s diamond and pearl leaf brooch a number of times over the years, including on a visit commemorating the Battle of Passchendaele in Belgium in 2017.

Catherine wore the piece in tribute to the monarch while attending her funeral procession at Westminster Hall in September 2022.

The sapphire and diamond earrings

The Princess of Wales borrowed Queen Elizabeth’s sapphire and diamond earrings for a visit to Edinburgh in 2021.

The sapphire earrings are part of a suite of sapphire and diamond jewellery by Asprey, which Her late Majesty added to her collection during the late 1970s.

The Bahrain pearl drop earrings

Featuring two pearls gifted to Her late Majesty by the Hakim of Bahrain as a wedding present, these diamond and pearl drop earrings were also worn by Princess Diana in the 1980s.

The Princess of Wales was first spotted wearing the earrings at a Remembrance Day service in 2016, before going on to wear them for Trooping the Colour in 2019 and Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral in 2022.

Comparing Elisabeth's costumes in the Vienna productions of Elisabeth das musical (Act 1)

And I'm back once again to perhaps prove a point, but mainly to pour out some of the frustration. In this post, I'll be comparing the costumes chronologically worn by Elisabeth in the Vienna productions of Elisabeth: the original/1st revival (designed by Reinhard Heinrich; lower refered to as the Heinrich version) and the 2nd revival/Schönbrunn concert (designed by Yan Tax; lower refered to as the Tax version). The Yan Tax design was first used in the 2001 Essen production, but was later carried over into the 2nd revival Vienna production in 2012 and VBW kept on using it since.

I tried to mainly find higher quality photos of all these costumes, but sometimes, I had no luck in doing that. So, at times, I will use a screenshot because nothing else was available. I mainly tried to look for pictures of the 1st revival (circa 2003-2005) and 2nd revival (circa 2012 - 2013), but I will sometimes use pictures from the original production (1992-1996).

Disclaimer: the contents below are my subjective opinion as a student of set and costume design and I will be mainly looking at what the costume tells me within the context and the construction. If you prefer costumes I don't, your opinion is totaly valid and you're welcome to discuss why you think otherwise in reblogs and comments below. :) After each section, I'll try to sum up which of the costumes I liked better and why.

Little Sisi:

Heinrich version: light blue and white trachten/dirndl with a lace apron, hair bow and ribbon choker. Not only fitting her origin as a Bavarian princess, but also sweet with the pastel colors and the accordingly fluffy, but light construction. The costume is girly, but not hindering when is comes to Sisi climbing trees and other physical activities she mentions she likes.

Tax version: short green/brown/orange plaid print dress. Now, this is a historically plausible costume, but do I like it? Absolutely not. The colors and print are ugly and don't fit Sisi's character in the slightest. And with the way the costume has multiple ruffles and pleats, it just makes it too busy to look at. And the skirt is too fluffy for this point in the show. (And they did Abla absolutely dirty with the wig they gave her in 2022 Schönbrunn)

Which is better? Heinrich version all the way. It's sweet and girly, but not too much and I love that it's a trachten/dirndl. The Tax version is just too busy with the plaid and I don't like the colors.

Bad Ischl:

Heinrich version: Dark blue short-sleeved bodice and skirt, matching hair bow and velvet ribbon long choker and bracelets. This costume is directly inspired by what Elisabeth could have worn during this first meeting in Ischl (when she met Franz, she and all her family were in dark mourning dresses, since they didn't have time to change and unlike Helene, who looked washed out in her dark dress, the dark dress really suited Elisabeth). Another little interesting historical detail I noticed here is the choker, which looks like a ribbon choker Elisabeth was mostly depicted wearing during her engagement to Franz. So, awesome that they kept in these little historical details.

Tax version: Long-sleeved bodice and skirt. Now, I've seen this dress in a ton of different fabrics (white with a broad floral trim on the skirt, blue plaid) but I think the most common variant of this costume is this beige one with the orange-red and green pattern. Now, once again, this is a historically more plausible costume, since the meeting took place during the day and so it would be proper for Elisabeth to be covered up, but it doesn't take into account any of the historical happenings. Which just seems to me like the designer didn't do any background research into Elisabeth specifically. And if we're going on pure aesthetic level alone, this dress is so plain and boring.

Which is better? Once again, Heinrich won this. No question needed. And while we're at it, the colorplay the dark dress on Elisabeth offers in Nichts ist schwer is much better that the light dress (We're about to get into lighting here, because that is also important to consider). With the reddish and blue lights for this scene, the dark dress stands out against that very red Habsburg eagle, but the light dress gets a red/pink wash from the lights, which makes Elisabeth almost visually disappear in that scene (see image below). The entire colorplay in the Tax version is simply off for this scene (because the thing that most stands out to me isn't Elisabeth, it's Franz's VERY green knitted socks).

Wedding dress:

Heinrich version: white satin bodice and skirt with silvery translucent overlay, ruffled bertha collar with beaded fringe and puffed translucent sleeves. The amount of soft texture this dress has under the stage lights is so amazing and I really like the choice of sleeve here, since it does remind me of the puffed sleeves she had on her trachten, but this is like a more grown up version. And since the sleeves are translucent and long, it gives Elisabeth the appearance of not fitting in with the court ladies, who all have short sleeves in opaque fabrics . The silvery contrasts look great and the way that white fringe looks like the fringe on Tod's jacket from the Prolog (thus connecting them visually) is *chef's kiss*.

Tax version: white satin button-up bodice with pagoda sleeves and skirt with striped accents. This dress is giving me a whole lot of nothing. Like, there isn't anything eyecatching here. And it makes Elisabeth look kinda dowdy with how covered up she is. And, if they were going for more "historical accuracy", why then put her in a dress that could be classified as daywear (with the long sleeves and the very prominent buttons in the front) if all of the wedding should be taking place in the evening?

Which is better? Heinrich version. The Tax version is too flat and plain for me. If the Heinrich design is proving anything so far, it's that historical accuracy can easily be beaten out with good and purposeful artistic design.

Nightgown:

Heinrich version: structured white nightgown with a slightly raised waistline, broad lace straps and lace trim. Once again, I love the structure the fabric has, it looks soft and romantic under the stage lights. The straps are so characteristic and they make her arms completely bare, thus making her appear vulnerable when facing Sophie and the ladies in waiting.

Tax version: white satin empire waist nightgown with short puffed sleeves. They literally couldn't have picked a thinner and cheaper looking satin for this costume? It literally looks so flimsy, especially since this costume has no texture and no decoration going on. I think the very high empire waistline is also a rather off choice, since it would be very out of fashion during the 1850s and it is a waist placement that often looks awkward on a lot of people. And there are the sleeves. They are very awkwardly short. Especially on the concert costumes, the sleeves literally look like they have 2 cm of an inseam at best.

Which is better? I think this is no surprise, but Heinrich once again gets it.

Stationen eine Ehe:

Heinrich version: White robe with ruffled lace trimmings, long bell-shaped sleeves and a broad light blue sash at the waist. I always love when I see a good nightrobe on stage and this is no exception. The material is delicate and translucent enough to keep Elisabeth looking very vulnerable in this scene, even though she's covered up. And the amount and placement of ruffling is just right. What I also find very interesting is that sash, because that color is so eyecatching (reminds me of a robin's egg) and it really gives the robe a distinct look.

Tax version: Reddish-pink duochrome satin bodice with fake buttons and pagoda sleeves w/ white puffed undersleeves and a matching skirt worn over a circular hoopskirt. Once again, more historically plausable, but it doesn't offer me anything as a costume. By making Elisabeth's silhouette here the same as Sophie and the ladies in waiting and by not giving the fabric any sort of softening embellishments, it removes this vulnerability she should have here. And I don't get why they went for this weird pink shade, because it makes no storytelling sense. And while we're at it, why did they choose to put her in this braided wig here? In real life portraiture, we don't get Elisabeth depicted with her hair in these braided updos up until the mid 1860s. The Heinrich version cleverly went around this by keeping Elisabeth with long loose curls through Act 1 to emphasize her girlishness and naivity, so when we see her with her hair braided up in the portrait reveal, it's this clear visual breaking point for her, showing us how she matured. But in the Tax version, it's a mess when it comes to wigs.

Which is better? Once again, Heinrich takes the cake. I feel like I might be biased, but I just can't find any rhyme and reason in the Tax costumes so far.

Schatten Hungarian dress:

Heinrich version: black and dark blue striped satin bodice with a fake stomacher and puffed sleeves and skirt with a black lace apron. For how little time this costume gets on stage, it is so crucial in this design, since it is both a visual paralel with Elisabeth's Hungarian coronation gown (but here, the silhouette is less mature and it's like a dark version of that dress), but also, this dress is paralelled again in the Mayerling dresses, since Shatten in Act 1 and Mayerling are paralel scenes, where Death takes away one of Elisabeth's children because of her unadvised decisions.

Tax version: same dress as in Stationen eine Ehe, but over it is worn a red velvet atilla with gold cording and brown fur trim and a matching red velvet hat. The atilla looks decently made and the cording does seem ok. This is a much technically easier way how to do this quick costume change, but it's ok. What I don't like here is the hat. It simply looks awkward witch the placement of where it's sitting and that cord in the front doesn't make it better. And once again, I am missing the paralels!

Which is better? I will probably sound like I'm repeating myself, but Heinrich version wins again. You can never beat good paralels and visual connections in costume design.

Elisabeth, mach auf mein Engel:

Heinrich version: Same robe as during Stationen eine Ehe (but this time with a better picture). Still love it here, because this is still supposed to be a vulnerable moment (especially when Death comes in at the end). So by keeping her in this nightgown, which she previously wore at a vulnerable moment, we have an immediate connection of how she feels.

Tax version: White chiffon robe with elbow length sleeves w/ lace engageants and with a train trimmed with lace ruffles, worn over a long pale pink/peach/orange?? satin slip. And we have a dreaded return of that flimsy satin! The nightgown for the most part looks ok, but another of this production's big issues comes in here and that is a gaping issue on front closing overcostumes. (If you read my 2022 Schönbrunn roast, you might remember how I complained about the massive amount of gaping in the front Der Tod's doctor disguise had). Here, the gaping could have easily been fixed with an added ruffle along the seam.

Which is better? Heinrich once again.

Star dress:

Heinrich version: Cream bodice with gathered tulle overlay, bertha collar trimmed with pearls and 3 tiered tulle ruffle sleeves, matching skirt with draped tulle overlay, tulle sash and pearl necklace. I love how this dress isn't an outright copy of the Winterhalter portrait, but keeps the soft, etherial and dreamy vibe the dress has. This dress looks light as a feather and even if it doesn't outright have stars, it has a light shimmer in the tulle.

Tax version: Cream bodice decorated with tulle overlay w/ gold embroidered stars, with pleated bertha collar, single tier tulle ruffle sleeves, matching skirt, matching star embroidered shawl, white satin gloves and star necklace. I love how this costume looks exactly like the portrait! The design is great, but sometimes, there have been some hiccups with the execution, specifically with balancing the volume of the sleeve in relation to the skirt. The costume below is one of the better ones, but often, the sleeves end up being too big and the skirt too narrow, throwing the proportion off. And sometimes, the costume can end up looking too stiff.

Which is better? Depending on the version. For me, this will be a tie. The better versions of the Tax design are equally as good as the Heinrich versions. However, if I were to take into account some of the stiffer versions of the Tax design, Heinrich would take the win again.

🌸 Terra, Magic Winx Form 🌸

================================================

Next up for the redesigned main next-gen fairies' fairy forms, we have Terra's! :3 Hers was definitely in need of a glow-up, but I really love the new look she has, it really fits her more cute, girly-floral aesthetic. I hope you enjoy!

More notes/details about her fairy form:

================================================

Her top would be pretty much the same, being a light pink bralette with floral detailing over it, though it would be the tiniest bit longer. Her shorts would be more of a yellow-green color, being about the same length as the reference image with the overlay skirt. Her boots would be light pink, wedge ankle boots, with the details on the straps being simple flowers.

Her accessories would be pretty much the same as above, but her flower crown would have a little more green in it. She would also have a beaded choker necklace in the same style as her bracelets.

Her hair gets a little longer and curlier, but is otherwise the same and kept down.
