isn't it neat? - Melody Stanwell - November 11, 2023

Dearest Rosabella,
I can't believe you're graduating this year, sister. You'll be debuting, joining Astoria and I in the season! I can't wait to see your debut gown. I'm sure it will be the loveliest in the hall.
Astoria sends her love, and so do I. There's a ball that we've been invited to, and I can't wait. I finally get to wear my aqua and silver gown! I've enclosed the original design, and a sketch the modiste did when we were working on the modernization of the design. I rather enjoy the modiste's take on the gown, though I did love my original work.
How I wish you could see the gown in person.
When is the next Hogsmeade weekend? I can't recall, and I'd love to see you soon.
Love,
Melody

Dear MelodyThat is some time yet, dear sister, but it sure does not feel that way with all the pressure everyone is feeling to do well on their NEWTs! I am looking forward to the Coming Out ball. It has always been quite fun the times I attended in the past but now I will be attending as one of the starlets of the night. That does make me feel a little anxious but I know I will be calm once I see your faces in the crowd when I descend those stairs.
As for my gown... I had a thought of perhaps you taking up the design of it? I believe the only requisite is that it be white but embellishments can be any colours. Would you have the time for it?
Of course I also send my love to both of you. Your new gown is so very lovely. Perhaps you could model it for me when I come home for Hogsmeade Weekend?
With the death of the professor, there have been tensions as well as salacious gossip being flung about - so I requested our parents to sign me out for the night so that I might have time away from it. I will be home November 11th and shall be returning to Hogwarts before my Hogwarts curfew on November 12th.

Dearest Rosabella,
That's only a couple days from now. Goodness, yes, the news of the professor's sudden passing was jarring. I wish I had known him better; he only started teaching halfway through my fifth year. But I enjoyed his teaching style nonetheless.
I would LOVE to design your gown for the Hogwarts Coming Out Ball! Have you any ideas for design? I could see you in something trimmed with gold, easily. You have the coloring for gold.
Love,
Melody
