Some of the most elegant gowns that I've ever seen were photo's of dresses and suits from the '50's."
Some of us are Pure-Bloods. "I just so happen to be a 'pureblood'. All of the vintage clothes I own are from wizarding shops. None of it's Muggle made." Iris smiled at the girl. "It was only an idea," Iris tucked her polkadot dress under her legs shyly, feeling like the girl clearly didn't approve of it, "No single idea is close to being chosen. The more idea's we put forward, the more fun planning the decorations for the ball will be."
Really, The girl seemed to be offended by her idea. Had she never seen Cinderella? Or Queen Elizabeth II's wedding dress? THEY were Fifties Gowns. Beautiful.
AND did she not know that they had balls in the Fifties? Because they DID. Hehe.
Iris looked over to the girl who suggested snow, and smiled at her, "That would be really nice, I think ... Though, we'd have to be careful that we didn't just turn this ball into a Yule Ball. We could make it work, mind." HAPPY GRIN.
This ball WOULD be awesome, because they'd be the ones making the Hall and Grounds look BEAUTIFUL.
Alex sighed, "But how many people really remember the fifties? I mean I know next to nothing about it." Then again Alex was bad at anything to do with History most days. "I mean it's a great idea just going to be hard to pull off considering the fifties were a while ago and some of us only know basic facts about it." Alex looked over to the Professors, because they were older, they did know probably. "Then again we do have two Professors who probably know everything about the fifties." Alex added chuckling, maybe it could work.
