Gorgeous! I'm pretty sure that the rules would not permit wearing the sarafin and kokoshnik as a house dress ensemble, but until I find a worthy ceremony, house dress it is! Just too wonderful not to wear. (Besides which, Nicholas II is not here to complain. I hope.)
Beautiful. I look forward to the time when members of the public may be able to visit!
This is a truly amazing exhibition. It just made me happy to be in the midst of all that talent and beauty!
Congratulations. This is a wonderful collection (grabbing lindens and flagging down carriage)!
I just picked it up -- and it is really lovely to wear. Gorgeous color.
Absolutely exquisite! (Now searching purses and cushions for spare lindens)
Sign me up! A most appealing offer, Madame. I shall be in touch soon. (Your work is beautiful.)
Oh very nice! I especially appreciate dark blondes that look as if they might truly exist in nature.
