Inna Cents - townie makeover

Inna Cent appears in trailers and promos for  The Sims 4: Vampires and could be load from Maxis gallery. I was pretty upset she was not an official townie of  Forgotten Hollow, cause there is smth interesting in her backstory and relationship with a sassy vampire Caleb. Anyway I can imagine my own LORe for her.

Occult sims are most fun to makeover because you can play with fashion and choose for them the most unusual and non-realistic fits. For Inna I choose some looks inspired by Biedermeier\Victorian period, because she probably was turn in to vampire at second half of 19th century. And her prototype surely was Lucy Westenra (from 'Dracula' 1992). But I add to her kinn list two fictional ladies who's also like yellow and historical dresses - Edith Cushing (Crimson Peak) and Belle (Beauty and the Beast) which suits more to her shinny and gentle personality and fashion choices. Roses and butterflies as symbols of her innocent soul

I'm trying not to change face features and keep the original EA genetics. But I changed Inna's skin and make her more pale. Because for me she is not alive anymore and can't be that peachy pink, because her blood system doesn't work. And I hope this doesn't look like 'white washing'

Michel Van Cuyck - Beach of Oostende - ca 1866

Collection of the City of Oostende

Michel Thomas Antonius Van Cuyck (19 August 1797, Ostend - 10 May 1875, Ostend) was a Belgian painter, watercolorist and lithographer.

From 1811 to 1817, he studied at the Bruges Academy of Fine Arts . After graduating, he set up a studio in Oostende, but was forced to supplement his income by painting houses. In 1820, he and François-Antoine Bossuet co-founded the "School voor Teeken- en Bouwkunde" (School for drawing and architecture). They had several students who became well known, including Edgar Baes , Lionel Baes , François Musin and, especially, James Ensor. The latter, however, was not impressed by what he described as the "deceptive sponge and drawing technique of this dull, boring and stillborn business".

In 1827, a blue whale washed up on the beach near Ostend. Van Cuyck made a series of paintings, depicting it on the beach, and drawings of the dissection process, which accompanied an exhibition of the whale's skeleton. It was purchased by a local philanthropist named Herman Kessels who toured with it and Van Cuyck's drawings for almost four decades. Since 1865, it has been on display at the Russian Academy of Sciences in St. Petersburg.

During the years following independence, King Leopold I transformed Oostende into a sort of Royal Residence, which developed into a fashionable seaside resort. Van Cuyck was one of the first to depict the tourism and the bathing culture there. His beach scenes and seascapes are now some of his most familiar works. He also painted Flemish fairs and landscapes, primarily in Walloon Brabant, in Biedermeier style. His portrayal of Queen Louise on her deathbed was reproduced as a lithograph.

He was the first in a long line of painters, which included his sons, Edouard-Johannes Van Cuyck (1828-1893) and Michel Thomas Séraphin Van Cuyck (1822-1890), as well as his grandsons, Michel-Julien Van Cuyck (1861-1930), Octavius-Ludovicus Van Cuyck [nl] (1870-1956) and Paul-Edouard-Alphonse Van Cuyck (1882-?).

I’m actually really pleased with how this EA outfit turned out, because it hits the right notes of mid-to-late 1830s summer dresses (white with contrasting sashes! lots of volume at the wrist! shorter skirts) with enough riffs on Californio fashion of the 1830s and 1840s that she doesn’t look totally historically inaccurate. 

(Corseting wasn’t very common in the Alta California period, although upper-class women were more likely to own a corset due to their exposure to Spanish fashion trends. However, they were usually 5-10 years behind the cutting edge of fashion until the Gold Rush, so unless you were very on trend, you would still be wearing elaborate Biedermeier hairstyles and sleeve plumpers when the rest of the ladies of fashion had moved on to the bell-shaped skirt and severe middle parts.)

Schon in der Subway macht sich das Museum bemerkbar, nicht nur mit dem Namen der Haltstelle - auch hier die üblichen Kacheln und liebevoll gestalteten Mosaike -:

... sondern auch mit eingebauten Kunstwerken:

Die "Africa Fashion" zeigt eindrückliche Kreationen, die zum Teil afrikanischen Einfluss verraten, manchmal aber doch einen internationalen Stil anstreben:

Und noch ein paar Schmankerln aus der Sammlung. Dies da sieht doch ganz nach so etwas wie amerikanischem Biedermeier aus:

Und dann doch noch ein europäischer Klassiker:

"The history of all times, and of today especially, teaches that woman will be forgotten if they forget to think about themselves." - Louise Otto-Peters (1819-1895)

Mother Holle - Thoughts and Background

This year the story was rather more my personal interpretation than other Christmas Specials. Under the cut are some of my thoughts.

The classic story is minimalist to the point of surrealism: Marie finds herself on an enchanted meadow where the apple-tree and the oven just stand around, and which borders on Mother Holle’s garden-gate. There she is admitted, to make it snow down onto the world, which is usually read to be her own world. Both Marie’s and Mother Holle’s world are often depicted in a cosy 19th century style, with a cute granny at the centre.

What I wanted to emphasize is that ‘Mother Holle’ is one of the few tales where the Brother Grimm managed to hit on something really ancient. Many of their stores are retellings from early modern literature, made “folk” through oral tradition. Frau Holle though, is a version of the pre-christian goddess that was worshipped in many parts of central Europe - in some regions it’s still a tradition today. Her name is related to German “Huld” (Benevolence) and she was said to be in charge of everything a rural community needed to thrive. It still reflects in the tasks the girls perform in the story, and most importantly, she makes it snow!

Oddly enough, ‘Mother Holle’ is accidentally referencing another fairy-tale. In the opening paragraph, busy Marie is called the ‘Aschenbrödel’ (Cinderella) of the house. At the time though, this was just a nickname for underpaid servants in general. Andrew Lang translates it “maid of all work”. It gave me the idea though, to set it in the time when fairy-tales came back into fashion.

On the one hand there’s rural Biedermeier Germany, where after the hardships of the Napoleonic wars, society was as conservative and narrow-minded as ever. They did love moral stories though, so the Grimms’ books were received with enthusiasm.

On the other hand the Dark Ages, where Mother Holle is a powerful and respected goddess. It was amazing to see how much sense many things suddenly made.

Personally I always imagined Mother Holle to look like the actress who plays the Grandmother in this Swedish Christmas film. I hope I got mine to be a bit like her.
