#Persephone collection from Paolo Sebastian

[evermore-fashion]

Can you elaborate more on why you dislike the Paolo Sebastian spring 24 collection? I took a look at it and while I didn't think it was that boring, I also didn't think it encapsulated the theme they described at all. So yeah I'd be curious to hear you talk a bit more in depth about it if you want!

I just didn't think the collection was eye catching nor was it memorable amongst his fashion catalogue. Besides I feel like the simple looks have outstayed their welcome in the fashion world, especially when it comes to Haute Couture. Also when I think of Paolo Sebastian and Spring Couture collections, I immediately think of his previous collections such Wild Swans, Persephone and The Passage of Spring. Each of those collections had a number of garments in them that stood out which made them memorable. To me they were the perfect blend of simple and elegant infused with details that told a story as well as showed off Paolo Sebastian as a fashion house. If others loved the collection then that's great and I'm glad they're weren't disappointed with it. However for me personally I'd just like to see something more from the fashion world in general. I'm tired of the simple/clean looks. I'm tired of designers creating every-day wear and labelling it as Haute Couture (aka Christian Dior). I'm tired of the overuse of various shades of nude in Spring collections and I'm especially tired of the sheer looks. No one wants to wear a dress with their boobs on show (unless you're Florence Pugh), especially celebrities who always opt to have an inner lining added to the original design which then makes the garment look way better than it did before.

🤍WIP’s List🤍

Note: This list will also be updated as the blog grows. Currently, I’ve been taking OT hours from work (trying to keep my finances like Nanami & Gojo). So I haven’t had the time to thoroughly go through my drafts, but there’s a lot that I’m excited to finish :)

PS — by a lot, I meant lengthy pieces

Jujutsu Kaisen

Heartbreaking Traits — Geto | Sukuna | Naoya | Choso

Extension to this. Angst, I think?

When The Petals Fall From White Lilies — Nanami

Straight up manga spoilers & heavy angst, so might have to wait until the Shibuya Incident Arc is animated . . . I’m writing it as seriously as I can, especially when it comes to emotionally abusing Gojo (I also drag you, Ino & Yuji through the mud). Has a bittersweet ending though . . . I’ll make it up to y’all by posting an nsfw after this !!

When You Left — Gojo & Nanami

Also, heavy manga spoilers & angst. A personal story between Gojo & Nanami, taking place during the time of Haibara, Geto then to when Nanami finally came back to working as a Jujutsu Sorcerer.

Report Card — Gojo

LMAO, headcanon nsfw! I can’t say much, even though I want to, but I’m biting my tongue on this 😂

Ripped — Sukuna

AAAHHHHHH ! NSFW !

Persephone Series — Gojo | Nanami | Toji | Geto | Sukuna

Fluff & adventure inspired by Paolo Sebastian’s Persephone Collection

Are You Am I Series — Gojo | Nanami | Toji | Sukuna

NSFW mixed with Roman Catholic themes. Also inspired by the brand itself, specifically the dresses section !

Haikyuu!!

The Butterfly’s Ripple Effect — Kenma | Kuroo

Your cliche nsfw love triangle, or is it? Probably one of the few I really want to finish, since it’s a complicated relationship that centres around social media issues (given Kenma’s social status) & I thought touching base on that is something that I’m able to write due to how familiar (?) it is to me. I’ve already posted a sneak peek of it, planning to get it done within 3 months or at least by late May/early June. Yeah, it’s a lengthy one, but I’m trying to keep it at 20 chapters max (might even make it shorter, depending).

Boku No Hero Academia

Cheeky Bird — Hawks

Little shit, lol. Also, nsfw.

Curious if you had a specific dress in mind for Speak Now before I am very fond of Paolo Sebastian and this dress from the Persephone collection is like exactly as described! The overall fairy tale drama from PS as a whole has such Reid wedding vibes to me! Especially considering Spencer’s fondness for medieval lit from Diana I just 🥺

This dress is absolutely perfect Omg

Some inspiration for Ev from Paolo Sebastian ss 2021 couture collection, ‘Persephone’.

It just has way too many elements which I love for her outfits. The pleated gown with midsection embroidery detail is a hybrid between Ev’s palace and masquerade outfits and I love it.

Got hooked on Lore Olympus a few weeks ago and binge read the entire comic within a matter of days! I love the characters’ fashion forward styles and got it in my head somehow that Queen Persephone would absolutely rock some haute couture! Here she is in a piece from Paolo Sebastian’s Autumn/Winter 2019-20 collection! — Swipe to see the original dress design and my base sketch.

What’s dresses would you choose for Persephone, Freya, Diana, Artemis, Athena, Medusa, Frigga to wear?

Who was your favorite Goddess , God and what would you dress them in? (Maybe one I put might be your favorite Goddess if so you can put them in same dress or different)

Love your blog.

Also if the bands you put on the boots/dresses ask are ones you listen to then heck yes! you have awesome taste in music!!! Stay safe :)⭐️🌙🌹

Okay I've been thinking about this ask for a few days as I honestly had no idea on where to begin as the fashion world is so vast and I had to remind myself on who was the goddess of what etc. So to make this as simple as possible I'll list the goddesses and who they are alongside a link to which gowns I could see them in. Here we go... Persephone is the goddess-queen of the Underworld and wife of the god Hades in Greek mythology. She was also the goddess of spring growth, who was worshipped alongside her mother Demeter. Outfit: Paolo Sebastian Spring 2021 Couture Collection

Freya is the goddess love, beauty, fertility, gold, war, sorcery and death in Norse mythology. She is also the leader of the Valkyrie, the “Choosers of the Slain” warrior maidens who ride over battlefields on winged horses, taking the souls of warriors killed in battle to feast in Valhalla. Outfit: Valentin Yudashkin Spring 2014 Collection Diana is the goddess of hunting, and in later times, the moon and chastity in Roman mythology. She is also considered a virgin goddess and protector of childbirth. Her counterpart is Artemis from Greek mythology. Outfit: Christian Dior Spring 2020 Couture Collection Athena is the goddess of battle strategy, and wisdom in Greek mythology. She was always accompanied by her owl and also known as Pallas Athena. She wore a breastplate made out of goatskin called the Aegis, which was given to her by her father, Zeus. Outfit: Jean Paul Gaultier Fall 2009 Couture Collection Frigga was the Queen of Asgard, the highest of the goddesses and married to Odin in Norse mythology. She was worshipped as a sky goddess and is believed to be responsible for weaving the clouds. Additionally, the Norse believed that she had the power of prophecy and was in charge of weaving the fates. Outfit: Elie Saab Fall 2017 Couture Collection Medusa was a monster and a Gorgon in Greek mythology. She was generally described as a winged human female with living venomous snakes in place of hair. Those who gazed upon her face would instantly turn to stone. Outfit: Zuhair Murad Spring 2018 Couture Collection The reason I chose these outfits is because I didn't want to be too literal but I also didn't want to sway too far away from who they are as goddesses. I'm sure I could've picked even more unique outfits but with couture fashion being so vast there's probably 100+ more that would suit each of these amazing goddesses. Overall though I'm pretty pleased with my outfit picks which I believe are all equally unique.Now as for who my favourite goddess is I'd have to go with the following badass woman: Amphitrite was goddess-queen of the sea and wife to Poseidon in Greek mythology. She was also considered the personification of the sea as a whole, and the mother of seals and dolphins and closely resembled what we know today as mermaids. Outfit: Ziad Nakad Spring 2020 Couture Collection If anyone else has any couture gowns/outfits they believe the goddesses featured in this post (or perhaps other that weren't mentioned) would look amazing in feel free to comment in this post or drop me a message with either a link or photo explaining why etc. I'd love to hear your thoughts and opinions on this topic. Lastly thank you to whoever asked me this question, it was honestly so refreshing to see this message and it actually made my day. I've had a lot of interesting and sometimes negatives comments & messages being left on my blog recently that hasn't exactly made me enthusiastic to post anything whilst the fashion world has one again fallen quieter than usual. Blessed Be. ✨
