Description
Daphne Wade from the Guilty Pleasure's book by Laura Lee GurhkeDaphne is a restorer expert on antiques contracted by the Duke of Tremore. She is secretly in love with him, but he doesn't know she's alive. After a deception, Daphne quit her job leaving him totaly lost and unreconciled without his expert, and he will try to everything to get her back, but she is totally decided to be presented to society in search of a husband and thus completely change her destiny.
In her first ball in London, Daphne wear a beautiful light pink rose gown, and that's the dress I imagined to her, one of my favorite dresses from 1830 decade!
The book also portrays the new fashion of the beggining of 19th century to flatering express the feeling with the language of the flowers. So romantic!
c. 1830
