I like pink, though this particular shade of Petpo-Bismol is not my favorite, and I'm not crazy about silk moire (thank you for reminding me of the word) and maribou feathers. In fact, if I didn't have such a strong emotional connection to this fabric, I would probably hate it. :p I think the cape works because I just embraced the over-the-topness of it all.

I watched the post unfold with a vague, yet building sense of dread ("wow, that's pink... no way is she going to... oh, dear lord, please not the maribou!"), but it came together so beautifully. I love the color next to your gown, especially. They compliment each other well.<br /><br />Koshka-the-Cat replicated this hood a few years ago out of satin, I think. I like the body/drape of yours a bit better. Thread-Headhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15993301657471657837noreply@blogger.com
