Faelwen thought for a moment...a simpler hairstyle would easily dress the gown down. Perhaps that would be best with her situation. She didn't want to look as if she were dressing up just because Manwe were here. Dinners would require a bit more flair on her part, but she did usually keep her hair simply, if only because it was such a pain to put up. "I don't think a simple braid would look terrible..." she chuckled to herself as she pictured her fathers disapproving glance, or her sisters giggles. "However, since we have a guest...It would be considered rude of me to dress in something like this, and not have a finer hair style. Nothing too fancy though. Just enough to pass as 'I-did-more-than-usual'." That would get her father off her back, and wouldn't be considered an insult to the prince.
With that decided, Fae left Kris to sort through any ideas he had already. Thankfully she wouldn't need a corset for this one. The dress had a small amount of boning in it to give enough form to her so it could pass as an evening gown. Her under slip was pulled over her head. She wouldn't be able to wear it with this dress without showing half of it. With any luck, Manwe wouldn't notice, and she could have a fun evening chatting with her family. Hopefully....hopefully, she could sit across from the prince, rather than next to him. A small smile graced her lips as she stepped into the dress and lifted it over her shoulders. "I will need some help tying up the back, if you could, Kris." The lacing in the back was a little lower than the usual placement, though it still held the dress in place well enough. The neckline was wide, and slightly revealing, though nothing compared to her last evening gown. The back was probably the largest concern. It was a wide 'v' that would show most of her shoulders and end just above the small of her back. The black lacing would cross over this opening to keep the dress in place, while still revealing most of her back side.
