"Femininity is not just lipstick, stylish hairdos, and trendy clothes. It is the divine adornment of humanity. It finds expression in your qualities of your capacity to love, your spirituality, delicacy, radiance, sensitivity, creativity, charm, graciousness, gentleness, dignity, and quiet strength."
~James E. Faust

I mean yeah, like it’s sad Marco died so early because there were lots of amazing plot moments we would have loved to see him in.
But the most upsetting… the absolute tragedy, is that we didn’t get to see him blush while drinking inside the tents in Marley.

The first costume of "Dead Air" (Season 2, Episode 11) is a return of Phryne's classic at-home ensemble, with her knit cardigan, white sleeveless blouse, and white silk faille pants.
Worn while listening to the radio with Dot and Mr. Butler at home, Miss Fisher's sleeveless scoop-necked blouse can be seen in 1x01, 1x10, and 2x08, each seen underneath one of her comfortable sweaters. Her cream lace cardigan has been seen multiple episodes, 1x01, 1x02, 1x03, 1x04, 1x05, 1x06, 1x08, 1x10, and twice with different blouses in 2x07. The cardigan is made from white silk rayon fabric that the designer Marion Boyce had owned for years, and only decided to cut into it for Phryne's wardrobe.
Phryne pairs this with her wide-leg silk faille pants, decorated with a silver art nouveau buckle that can be seen in 1x01, 1x03, twice in 1x06. The buckle features a woman reaching up with one hand amidst decorative leaves and scrolls. The buckle itself is an authentic 1920′s piece, and is most likely a nurse’s buckle, historically given to nurses by hospitals once they completed their training. Traditionally, they are made of two symmetrical pieces that clasp together in the middle. Since we know Phryne served as a nurse in the First World War, this is a truly impressive and subtle nod to her history.
Her beautiful earrings are green crystal teardrops, topped with pearls, with a gold ring of jewels embedded near the end.
