That last hot summer before the war everything was idyllic; few were apprehensive about what was to come. I remember flitting in and out of the flower beds in my light summer dress as beautiful as a flower itself I was told by a handsome officer.
I remember the ball at the White Palace... I can hear the dreamy lilt of a Viennese waltz that drifted on the wind of that magical summer Crimean evening, and a great golden moon that hung low over the dark ruffled waters of the Black Sea, gilding the silhouettes of the tall cypress trees.
I am wearing a gorgeous new gown by TWA (The White Armoury) called Elornia Beliata Gown Set - Wisteria with it's empire waist and cuff sleeves set off by trailing sleeves. The floral embroidery around the bottom of this gown is absolutely superb and took many hours to complete. The petticoat has come to mean undergarment today, but they are worn like another layer of skirt with this gown which is historically accurate.
