I'm going to a very formal party in about 4 weeks, mid march, and toward the beginning of the week was very worried about find a dress for this party. I already owned a few dress, but my father, who im attending the party with, insisted i buy a new dress. After spending just about all this week searching for a dress, i finally found a dress that would work for such an occasion.
What i'll essentially end up doing is doing a cosplay of a FOmarl. I have a friend of mine who is a dress designer and she has told me that if given a week or two, she could recreate a FOmarl costume to fit me for this occasion.
Interestingly enough, i've been to this formal event several times in the past, and sometimes it's not really simple, if thats the best way to say it. Usually people get very dressed up, and so just going in a simple evening gown like i have for the past 12 years is dull. Going in a FOmarl dress was kinda a spur of the moment sorta thing, since when trying to find a dress, that was over 300 dollars was just stupid. My doesn't know or care about it, as long as i look beautiful, and according to my friend who's making this dress, she says im going to do just that.
This event is for European hotel owners, its more of a ball instead of a party i guess. My dad and I own a large hotel, 2000+ rooms, 2 resturants, 5 ball rooms. Imagine a really nice Hilton Hotel in the states, is the best way i can describe it. We only own the one hotel since, but were invited every year because out of tradition. Were not like other people who own several hotels or chains of them, but were welcomed each time. It's usually a very rich kinda snobby group of people who come, and they always dress overly fancy. It's scary to a teen, well 20 year old, like myself, who's used to low key kinda formals. This ball it's self is very popular and since it's only once a year, people want to really show off their worth, so it's a night when if your lucky, you won't get blinded by the reflection of other women's jewelry hitting the lights. Me dressing of as a FOmarl probably won't see out of the norm. Also not im not going to use the Shinny fabric, my friend is using stuff that isn't shiny and quality materials for this costume, she's got a nack for bring out all the details in stuff, she's done some cosplay costume before.
i've got really short dirty blond hair, and I'm pretty slim and athletically built. I have a picture of me on my Yahoo Profile which you can get to from the PSOW profile. I'm not really much of a girly girl, I'm sorta like a tomboy, that just not phyiscal. I wear dresses, blouses, and skirts too, don't get me wrong, but im not in to heavy make up, getting my hair done, or reading the latest magazine about dating or such. Which is probably why I play PSO, cause if you think about it, not a lot of girls play online games.
I'd like to know what you think of going as a FOmarl to this party?
