Miranda Dances

Although she's always attired in exquisite clothing, Miranda Vasquez dances, but she's not a socialite. She spends most of her days embroidering dresses and decorating flowered fans long into the night. Her finely sown garments would fetch a nice price, but money is not what brings Miranda great joy. No. For she gives them away to low-born ladies who proudly wear her raiment of felt and corduroy. Her garments are beautiful works of creative art, similar to grand paintings from a master's brush. Bright and bold colored fabrics she loves the most, green, gold, and crimson hues of cheeks in blush. Miranda is loved by young and old in her village. A legendary figure she's bound to become in time. With her dark lashed eyes and dainty red lips, she's adored for her heart and tailoring, sublime.

This is as colorful as any painting "Her garments are beautiful works of creative art, similar to grand paintings from a master's brush. Bright and bold colored fabrics she loves the most, green, gold, and crimson hues of cheeks in blush."

Thank you, David. I'd like Miranda to design my gown. I'm thinking something blue, but not bold. ;)
