Now who wants to be Princes of QuiteALot when you could be Queen of Everything? Well, maybe not everything, but this dress from Evie’s Closet is one that makes me feel like a Jazz Queen. Maybe the Queen of Sweden who comes to Minnie the Moocher’s Wedding Day? Wait, that was the King of Sweden, wasn’t it If so, well that makes the song much more “political” as he was rumored to be Joe Hill’s father. But that’s too stream of consciousness for fashion blogging. Focus! So let’s focus on the lovely Octavia dress from Evie’s Closet. It’s got a gorgeous Greco-Roman style that would make it at home in the Senate or the Agora, but for me, also makes me think of the Egyptian Revival that flourished during the Jazz Age, which is why I paired it with Art Deco jewelry.
Front or back, the Octavia dress has a graceful and lean silhouette.
The Art Deco Collection from Eclectica is a perfect match – even better than I had hoped. It comes with three earrings options – this is the first.
Hair from Amrita and the Tuli “The Deck” exclusive version of the new Faith skin line finish the look and make the whole Jazz Queen look come alive. And yes, the heading is right, this is I <3 EC week – a big thank you for creating feminine formal that will melt your heart.

Is there a shorter skirt in there as well? The total look is very reminiscent of a classic “flapper” dress, but a shorter skirt would be perfect.
No, no shorter skirt, but that would be a great addition. On some outfits, Evie does sell a extras pack with shorter skirts.
