Full Name and Title: Princess Viola DiGuilla
Age: 18
Background: Viola is the twin sister of Sebastion. Like her brother, she is charming, kindhearted, extremely devoted to the Illyrian empire, and consequently utilizes her considerable talent for manipulating others in political matters. She also takes great pleasure in maintaining every facet of her personal appearance and is known for being one of the empire's foremost trendsetters.

Ok! So here's a bit of analysis on her dresses, starting with the top right and continuing clockwise (note that these are fancy dresses - normally, Viola tends to wear chemise gowns):

Romance Polanaise Gown: This dress was based very loosely on a concept sketch for Sofia Coppola's Marie-Antoinette, the shoes are based on those lovely lace Christian Louboutan shoes from a couple years ago, and the colour scheme was inspired by the gorgeous dress Kiera Knightly wears in the drunk scene in The Duchess. The metal bits are pink gold, and the piece in her hair is a pair of snuggling birds.

Striped Gown: First, may I point out the very nifty shoes, which are based on an Erte sketch. The bodice was based on the bodice of a dress worn in a portrait of Elisabeth Duchess of Parma. The 'mask' is, obviously, based on the 'mask' worn by Kirsten Dunst in Marie-Antoinette.

Butterfly Zone-Front Gown: The inspiration for this was an Erte sketch. Can't really think of much else to say, but I'm very proud of it!

Dreamcatcher Gown: As the title says, she's dressed up as a dreamcatcher here. This is all my creation here, the only inspiration I took was from dreamcatchers. The only other thing to mention is that the feathers are supposed to be swan feathers (although the bottom ones are a bit big and fluffy, aren't they? ).

Also note that she has two natural beauty spots - one just below her right eye - a beauty spot in this location is called 'apassionata', meaning 'passionate' - and the other at the left corner of her mouth - this one is called 'l'assasina', meaning, 'the killer'.
