Here is where you are welcome to post what you intend to wear to the Auction. Remember, it's medieval themed, and semi-formal, but feel free to have fun with that. See you all, 9 p.m EST on Saturday!

Snatching a brief respite from the business of the festival, which hadn't even begun yet, AJ lay sideways on her bed, groaning, repeating the mantra, "It's almost over, it's almost over." A flash of heavy material hanging on the closet door made her smile, though. Despite Greg's insistence that every representative member of the Studios dress in psuedo-medieval style, she'd actually had a fair amount of fun taking the younger apprentices out to find their costumes for the night. And everyone had had an opinion on what style would suit her best, of course. In the end, she'd chosen something that looked vaguely medieval, but had an empire-waist and plenty of material in the skirt, to accomodate her almost six-month pregnant belly comfortably. Comfortable was her action-word for the week, it seemed.

The fiery buxom, Ms. Lilliana McClae held a certain air about her, as if lifted from another time and place. Being a gypsy, that may all well enough be true....But pass down old hallways of classic, romantic artists long past. Gaze at the many voluptuous models that haunted the painter's tireless brain, marvel at the vixens and soft, cherub maidens that completely enrapture not only their sculptor, but countless generations of admirers to come and pass.

As tribute to her own perfect imperfections, a testiment to buxom beauties across the times, the gypsy witch chose one of her favorite artists, Alphonse Mucha...

Her hair, and elaborate, yet simple updo with a garnishing crown of live, enchanted florals; poppies and forget me nots to adorn her ethereal presence.

The dress; a sweep of supple fabrics that billowed and contoured, rippled and flowed with every motion; slaves to a decadent, yet delicate brocade of stitchery and beads crafted from raw, earthen fruits fresh from the mountain's grit.

A little stretch of one's imagination might even let the onlooker believe a fine touch of magic went into the crafting of this ensemble. A witch, is a witch, was a witch...

Always a witch.

It's a good thing Sivanna picked his for him. He has no sense for costuming. He feels kind of weird in it, but at the same time, he doesn't. Sivanna showed up at the tower in her costume with his in hand. And knowing what she's wearing, his seems appropriate.
