Chapter 66: Before the Feast
"It's a robin, and I don't think it fits well with your 'pure white salute' for tonight's dress. Personally, I would recommend that you use this glass rose, the crimson flame unique to the mountains of Zipopol will match your beautiful blonde hair perfectly, trust my eye. ”
"Alright then, I'll listen to you." Lillian reluctantly looked away. In fact, this glass rose is deeply loved by her, and it is this hairpin that she first looks at. It's just that the little blue robin was so cute that it reminded her of the one who followed her and Orlan in the forest, well, maybe a lot of them, but they all looked the same.
Julia patiently inserted the hairpin at the most suitable angle, and then added other small hair accessories. Although it may seem a bit complicated at first glance, it is much more monotonous and elegant than those of the aristocracy. After all, the ladies would go to great lengths to fill their towering hairs with everything from precious stones, gold and silver to all sorts of ornaments that they thought they were pretty, and even certain vegetables on top.
Don't be too surprised, after all, the tide among the nobles of the imperial capital is changing at any time, maybe they call it "pastoral style".
But on the whole, Lilian's "pure white salute" and her whole temperament are a perfect match, after all, the interplay between gold and pure white is easy for people to feel the meaning of holiness to the greatest extent. Coupled with the fact that Lillian is a knight herself, her unique heroism and cold arrogance make this pure white holiness evolve more into a kind of sacredness and cannot be desecrated.
Of course, if Lilian Ken casts a few magic spells with the effect of "Holy Light", I believe that most people who are keen on religion will show their high respect for "sacred" from the heart.
Although it is not ruled out that this is a tribute to a high-ranking knight who is about to inherit Sutton Liel knowing Lilian's identity. But if they didn't know Lillian, they might just think she'd be a young saint in the pastor's office.
"To be honest, Lillian I kind of regret dressing you up like this...... It's so 'solemn'. After all, we don't want to be so eye-catching when we go to the dinner, but I'm afraid that many people will come up and circle around you. ”
"So, you should relax a little, we are not going to the battlefield, you have to restrain this 'I am a knight' attitude a little bit. After all, some people with vicious eyes can see through you as a knight at a glance, plus your gender and approximate age, I believe it's easy to guess your identity, isn't it? Yulia explained.
"So you already know who I am. So, then what do I do? Lilian didn't expect that Yulia already knew her identity, but she was a little surprised that the other party said this fact indifferently like drinking cold boiled water.
"Well, you should be as 'weak' as a normal aristocratic lady, but you can't be as strong as you are now. It's like telling someone 'I'm amazing, you dare to give me a second look!' Yulia said with a grin.
After all, Lilian's change is also due to the fact that she has met some "abnormal" people recently, and it is only in front of these people that she shows the arrogant and innocent girl hidden under the hard exterior. Maybe it's these people who are influencing her personality and quietly changing her fate.
At the same time, Yulia began to prepare her own dress. Unlike Lillian's, her dress as a whole presents a feminine and fresh lilac style without losing vitality and enthusiasm. Probably a special visual experience of her crimson warmth and lilac serenity suddenly merging after clashing with each other.
And its name is "July Violet".
The whole dress on her curvy, concave and convex figure actually shows the kind of charming but not enchanting, pure but not pretentious sexy expression vividly. People not only see her "sexy", but also a unique "sensual" beauty exuding.
"Yulia, how do I get this skirt pad, why I can't adjust its position all the time?" Julia was lying on the table, but Lillian blushed and lifted the hem of her skirt behind her, fiddling with a soft cloth cushion that rested on her waist and hips. It's just that this scene seems a little too much for a lady...... It's not elegant enough.
"......" Yulia has no choice, and she is also desperate. After all, this kind of thing should be tied before wearing a skirt, and it is even more inappropriate to adjust it now. Who's called Miss Lillian, who has never done this kind of maid's work?
Skirt pads have only become popular in recent years, unlike the "skirt braces" that used to be used. Although it seems that skirt cushions can show a woman's beautiful figure more naturally, it can also reduce the burden on women compared to skirt support.
But it seems that the difficulty of wearing it has not decreased much, because in detail, it is also tied to the skirt under the back waist line with a complicated method of "steel wire iron frame", the purpose is to make the buttocks look fuller and straighter. This is also a popular thing in high society, and it is not seen in the countryside that any girl would wear this kind of thing to do farm work and housework.
In fact, all of these can be labeled as "anti-human" in Yulia's eyes, because Yulia believes that they are all born from unknown elaborate etiquette and inexplicable aesthetics. Just like the popular "chest corset" a few decades ago, this kind of thing may be caused by people's pathological pursuit of "bee waist and hips", which is completely destructive to women's personal health, and will be eliminated by history sooner or later.
But now they are going to a nobleman's dinner, and if they don't have these "blessings", it may make people feel very different and ostentatious.
In the end, Lilian finally helped her put on the whole dress by herself under the guidance of Yulia, but it turned out that she was the most tired.
……
"Oran, don't you have anything you want to express?" Yulia and Lilian, two pretty beauties, stood in front of Oran in their very different but equally beautiful dresses, and then asked.
"Well, maybe I should say you're really different today?" Oran thought for a moment and said. In fact, this may be the first time in Oran's life that she has praised a woman's beauty, although it is really "tactful" enough. Orlan was telling the truth, he had seen Lilian in armor and Yulia in her strange "overalls", but this was the first time he had seen the two so different.
"A gentleman is never stingy with praise for a lady, especially a lady like us. Oran: I think I should find a book of 'aristocratic etiquette' for you to study, how about it? Yulia said.
