Description

My entry for :iconsmvillage: Miss SMV Pageant contest

Round 03 - 20th century fashion
We were needed to draw an outfit representing a 20th century decade of our choice (1900s, 10s, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, or 90s). I choose 1950s because I really like those dresses. At first I thought of 1990s (fashion madness of eastern Europe is particular). Aw, time of my childhood... Nostalgia....but later I thought that it will not suit Trifolium very well, It will look much better playing by Phoenix (and I hope that I find time to draw a spectator entry with her). So I end up with my second favourite - 50s.

For dress itself - Usually it made in monotone with some patterns (flowers, strips etc.), but I made sleeves transparent to parallel with ones in her senshi form. But this time I use darker green line than I usually do (since judges were telling, that they didn't see the folds with light green line that I usually use). Not sure if I satisfied with it -  form one side it looks in more harmony with dress, form other - it looks too different form colour used in senshi fuku.
For pattern I choose dark small clovers. At first I wanted to do it with both dark and light ones, but later I thought that light clovers will be excess.
Dark ribbons represent her bow colour.
The Pearls that are usually used in that times are white, but I made it gold like the  main accessory colour in senshi fuku.
And of course almost necessary parts of 50s fashion - gloves and a hat.  And only white! Hair is also more curly with swirls to fit 50s.

P.S. A few words about the mole - it is not fake but real, inborn. "Just like Papa's" (c) Sailor Trifolium.  It just the artist herself totally forgot about it when was drawing ref. But it should be there. I found it later when was looking in main sketch refs for entrance comic. You can check it here for confirmation (see number 10)  Shame on me...CURSE YOU!  I'll try to fix a ref as soon as I can.
