The Gwenneth gown is the oldest of the three I am featuring, and possibly the oldest gown they have on offer, and it does show to some extent. There are some seam issues here and there and the texturing isn’t quite as crisp as one would like. In this shot, I also managed to get a flesh-filled system sleeve, but that we have to thank SL for, of course.

However, that being said, I like the idea of this gown quite a bit and I find that it works very well as a slightly simpler, earlier period gown. 

Far more elaborate than the Gwenneth is the Anne Boleyn gown which I have shown once before, when first introducing this particular shape. It comes with multi-tiered sleeves, two sizes of prim belts and a matching headpiece. When it is all worn together, it looks quite rich and sumptuous I also found that the fit was quite good, even though my shapes don’t exactly conform to the SL model standard in terms of body fat, hips, etc

This is definitely a great gown for looking both regal and dramatic in, and it has a distinctly historical feel to it.

Rather later in style and appearance than the previous two gowns is the lovely Anabel gown. The texturing on the black is very striking and the white lace and red trim offers a lovely accent. My favourite detail may be the sleeves/gloves, which really add the finishing touch to this ensemble. I also quite like that this gown comes with both system skirts and glitch pants, which given the aforementioned Windlight bug is very handy. Plus, I really do prefer not having to use a dress shape.

This gown would, I think, make a very nice gown for a Valentine’s date, with its heart-shaped neckline and appropriate colour-combinations.
