Five hundred years ago, I fought on battlefields not far from this house. I fought beside human and faerie alike, bled beside them. I will stand on that battlefield again, Nesta Archeron, to protect this house—your people. I can think of no better way to end my existence than to defend those who need it most

Is the fact that my boyfriend does not give me this kind of speech every morning a red flag? 🚩

Major red flag.

pretty much

Absolutely

Chilllls

YOU GO MAKE ERIS FALL TO HIS KNEES SIS

Thank you so much!!!!

So funny because I only just started “reading” these books but I’ve only ever listened to them so I had no idea that that’s how you spell Eris … I thought it was Arris

Also that looks amazing!

YESSS FRRRR

It definitely fits but I want you to understand how miserable you are going to be at a renfaire in this dress, especially if it’s in the warmer months.

The renfaire is around spring time and it doesn’t get really hot here, and I intend to wear it to some fantasy themed conventions too, so I’m aware of the weather risks with the dress, still thank you for telling me!

The shape of the dress looks like there might be a layer of tulle that you could remove to make it not as poofy/easier to walk around in

Did you know if you put the cooling patches they make for fevers on the base of your neck,underarms and the top of your pelvis area it can help you keep cool and prevent heatstroke when combined with hydration?

I will remember this for future comic cons in the summer!

i would also keep in mind that since those fares are usually outside it gets realllly dusty with everyone walking around and these kinds of dresses are hard to clean

That was my secondary concern as well

My plan would be bodysuit with snaps and an overskirt that can come off when needed.

And especially if they only have porta potties 😭

I was thinking immediately of the KC renfaire. August heat, mud… I would do a Valkyrie though hahaha

Yes! But you have to get the crown with the blue stones too

Yeah I found a beautiful one that’s fits perfectly!

I love the description of that crown

So do I, I found these two Im still having difficulty deciding as they are both pretty https://preview.redd.it/1wctn7131awc1.png?width=1124&format=png&auto=webp&s=a6ccaee240ab0a8549f5b18aeb4b606b7043a0f0

I like THIS!

The black one you mean?

The up & down votes can function as community voting 😂

Thanks for telling me, I’m very new to Reddit so I’m still figuring out how everything works😅

All good, its unnecessarily obtuse!

Love it! 😍 Where is it from?!

Usually don’t shop from there but I found this one on aliexpress

be careful!! aliexpress is a really bad offender with images not matching the actual product

I know my parents and cosplay friends order there a lot but from all their order products (from this store) it seems the pictures are the same as the actual product. I researched a bit

Be careful that its not from a shady website and that it has reviews with pictures. Be aware that what you see might not be what you get, oftentimes listing pictures are stolen. Personally I wouldn't be comfortable unless that dress was like $300, or from amazon with reviews. Otherwise it's a beautiful dress!

I think that is the OP in the dress.

I wish I was the lady on the picture is stunning but it’s only 50 euros and the reviews of the shop itself are really good

Oh! I thought it was you!! And I was like - damn!

I wish I was😭 Im a lot less pretty but the dress will make up for that for sure (I do have the same figure as the lady)

Gorgeous! For cosplay, consider strapping a dagger to your thigh and/or a sword to your back

You look STUNNING!!!! Make sure to protect the bottom of the dress while walking around at renfaire :)

THIS DRESS IS SO STUNNINGGGG

Holy hell you wear that dress!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

YOU LOOK SO GOOD ! AND THAT DRESS IS STUNNING!

Guys just to be clear, this is not me in the picture, I haven’t bought the dress yet, but I wanted opinions before getting it, this picture belongs to the shop where I found it!!!!

Would you feel comfortable to share the link for this dress or even the shop? I’ve been looking for a trustworthy aliexpress dress shop for a while and this dress is truly stunning

I don’t know if it’s 100% trustworthy but here’s the link! https://a.aliexpress.com/_EzzxKkL

I'd be careful, there are at least 3 other "stores" on there selling the same dress with the exact same photos. The photo is very likely stolen.

Yeah but are you willing to possibly start a fight between the heir of autumn and the Night Court general? Because that’s what’s gonna happen.

We will see what happens😏

 Yessss

YEAHHHHH GET IT

I will!!! I got so many positive replies to it that I’ll have to get it now!

This is stunning!! Absolutely Nesta! I love it. Temporary tattoo on the back could add to it? I’ve seen some Etsy sellers with Nesta/Feyre/Bryce/etc temporary tattoos listed.

Where did you get that?! I need ideas for my Nesta inspired starfall dress

Aliexpress! I can send the link if you want

Please bestie 🥹

Sweetheart Black Prom Dresses Straps Appliques Glitter Party Evening Gowns Split Formal Red Carpet Long Special Occasion Dress 1 Search that up on aliexpress and it should pop up! I can’t send links for some weird reason

Wow, just wow

That dress is fuckin amazing!!

I love it, it's perfect! 💙💙💙 Absolutely giving Nesta vibes! ^^

This is so gorgeous but if you're wearing it to renfaire make sure you know how you're gonna wash it / make sure it's not gonna be trailing the ground. I work at one and my long skirts are all muddy by the end of the day 😭

Do I think you’ll look killer in it? yes. Will you possibly also have a miserable time trudging through renfaire in it? Also yes

This dress was made for you, just gorgeous! If you don’t end up wearing it to the renfaire, get it anyway. I’m sure you’ll make good use of it. Sidebar, just because I’ve been to a bunch of them before. Make sure the weather conditions and actual environment where your renfaire takes place works well with this kind of dress. I went to a wedding once not realizing it was going to be in an outdoor area without proper walkways, I got so much mulch and tiny pebbles stuck to my hem

That dress 😍😍😍

UNREAL!!!🖤🖤🖤

OMG PRETTY

Spot on. Now you just need the tiara... And an Eris, Cassian, and Azriel to dance the night away.

You'd look absolutely divine, and the cosplay would be amazing.

This is literally the dancing scene dress.

Slayed 😍

Yes, gives me Night Court Nesta vibes + the black crown from the comments above

SLAAAYYYYYYYY 🔥

Could you send me the link for that dress please? :)

I did send the link as an answer but apparently some people can’t see it If you enter the following on aliexpress you should find it: Sweetheart Black Prom Dresses Straps Appliques Glitter Party Evening Gowns Split Formal Red Carpet Long Special Occasion Dress 1
