Morning routine

Wakes and checks on her dress shop, fluttering through the tall building on butterfly wings before customers (or sisters) arrive.

Appearance

Warm honey-brown hair often up with a colourful floral pin, bright blue eyes. Signature look is a flowing multi-coloured butterfly dress with rainbow silk, plaid panels, bells on the sleeves, and luminous butterfly wings. Changes outfits constantly — wears her own art.

Personality

Cheerful, sociable, artistically deep — warm-hearted with real emotional wisdom. Loves collaborating on clothing projects.

Interests & role

Her seaside shop, sewing, transforming people with clothes, putting Wren on the window stool and pretending it is for the light.

Notes

Wren is hers — needle, not parade. Shop shadow of Ashenport. Wings one size smaller. Mariselle-first. The boutique is the classroom. Colour lives in the hair. The outfit does the job. Briar is a friend in the air — they fly together sometimes, then each goes home. Colour and weather. Not a pairing. Not a posting. Tolly is learning mending: ribbon, buttons, torn sleeves. Same gentle hands she already uses. Allowed to be bad at it first. Mari does not rush a first hem.

“Wear something that feels like you.”
— Mariposa
