Since it's my birthday today, I wanted to share something very pretty, and I've been searching for a lovely dress to post today. I love the beautiful rose in the centre and the lace!

Helluva Boss redesign/rewrite: Stella
Like Stolas, Stella is going to have major changes when it comes to her design and her character. Stella is going to be a Goetian marquise named Shax but name Stella is used for her human disguise. Her design have major changes by changing her from a peahen to a stork that resembled Shax, a marquis from Ars Goetia. Like Stolas, she is a fallen angel of similar age of more than six thousand years.
Both Stolas and Stella were lovers and later turned to rivals later years (their rivalry was a bit slowburn). She was disliked by Blitz's department for infiltrating their missions (and they compete a lot).

Shax/Stella's redesign is based on Shax from Good Omens with 1900s-1930s fashion and makeup. Her outfit is based on equestrian outfit since Shax leads her legions with horses. Her usage of eyes as jewelry is based on one of Shax's ability to pluck eyes from her targets.

Ball dress worn by one of the two eldest grand duchesses, either Olga or Tatiana Nikolaevna, early 1910s.
Tumblr media
The dress was created in France between circa 1912 and 1914, and appears to have been tailored specifically to the measurements of the grand duchess. The waist circumference is exactly 60cm (23 inches), and the back of the dress measures to 132cm (51 inches). The dress is pink in colour, comprised mainly of satin, with tulle, lace, and gauze as accessories. The chest and fringe is highly detailed with beading and appliqué in the shape of flowers. It might have been produced by the House of Frederick, established in France.
Chief of Security Alexander Spiridovitch recounts Olga Nikolaevna wearing a pink gown to the ball held in honour of her 16th birthday in Livadia, 1911:
‘The heroine of the party, Olga Nikolaevna, in a pink dress and, for the first time, her hair in a chignon, presided over a table.’
Unusually, there doesn’t appear to be any identification on the dress. Most of the four grand duchesses’ clothing had their initials stitched into the waist to help differentiate between their clothing.
Although it has been claimed that none of the four grand duchesses got to enjoy a ball during their lifetimes, their own diaries, paintings, and the memoirs from those closest to them disprove this.
