This is literally just an excuse to design a dress for Mimi.   IDK if it'll be relevant but I loved the idea of it and I wanted to do a design (because if you haven't realized it- I Like Designing Dresses a *lot* )

So I actually decided to think about what *would* a moon princess like dress be without copying the original but staying true to the Christian Dior roots of it? Why, do a column based on her Sailor nickname.

See, Princess Serenity's dress (and therefore the Dior dress) is based on the ionic roman column style.

I decided (like I did for a different oc) to do one for Mimi based on an egyptian column style and also somehow to link her nickname to it. Thoth, not only being a moon god, but is a god of several things-including writing.

So I went with the Papyrus style and then for the sleeves it's actual a bundled pillar style (sorry I 100 percent forgot the name of it exactly). I just couldn't decide a primary color for her dress so I just stuck to white (which overall fits honestly).   And the coloring is adapted from the pillar itself (if it was colored) the only color I left off was red (mostly..hindsight) but like lmao, we're just here to have fun.

SO

YEAH

DRESSES, amirite?
