Her wardrobe is a curated collection of structured elegance, featuring a striking palette of Emerald Green, Pure White, and Pollen Yellow. She wears a stunning Emerald Green Maxi Dress, designed with a sleek, column silhouette that elongates her form. Over this, she drapes a chic Pure White Capelet, featuring a stylish crossover design that warms her shoulders without hiding the beautiful lines of her dress. Her look is completed with a fashion-forward White Turban and contrasting Yellow Ballet Flats.

In her hand, she holds a single, sculptural Calla Lily, its white trumpet shape curling around a bright yellow stamen. Her companion is a Slender Green Frog, a quiet observer from the lily pond who matches her elegant color scheme perfectly.

Please note: I strive for accuracy in every pattern, but occasional errors can happen. Thank you for understanding and for enjoying my designs.
