The Emporer's Daughter, Lucilla Farris
Lucilla Farris, daughter of Emporer Caesar Marcus
Aurelius, wore this gown to what was supposed to be Maximus' defeat at the hand of the Tigress of Gaul. She stood in amazement
looking regal and royal in this wine color combination as Maximus soundly defeated him and then mercifully spared his life
against Commodus' wishes.
Cheer on your favorite gladiator while looking like a Royal princess in this 3 piece ensemble.
The underdress is of Wine colored satin, trimmed with gold and wine crisscross, accentuating the bust and waistline. The first
drape of wine sparkle organza is completely trimmed with gold. The final touch as duplicated from the royal homecoming scene
is the gold sparkle headdress, trimmed with heavy gold lace and small tinkling bells. Over 10 yards of fabric went into construction
of this gown.
