Edith Cushing's nightgown by tremendousmysteryritual
So… It wasn't easy, but I think I did it.
I fell in love with this movie and its costumes the first time I saw it, and all these years I've wanted to recreate them for The Sims 4, and now I've finally taken the first step.
Introducing Edith Cushing's nightgown from Crimson Peak.
I hope you like it! And I hope I've done everything right and you won't encounter any bugs, haha. But if you do, please let me know—I'll try to fix it!

You can recolor my user content. However, you can't include my model.
Please don't reupload my content, especially for a fee.
If you recolor my content, please tag me—I'd be happy!
I recoloured @simstomaggie's teacher dress in the historian palette. It has 84 swatches. I used a few textures I got from @xandezsims. It's Houppelande inspired, so it should work for 14th-15th century! I hope it's useful :)

A Royal Masquerade - Lovers Unmask
The night's end is in sight, as the palace falls silent and carriages depart from the gates of Starfall.
While Prince Valarr may not have been fortunate enough to learn the identity of Lady Muse - tonight fate has smiled upon his companions, Prince Trystane and Ser Aelor.
Standing in front of the grand staircase, Trystane and Lady Monarch (by @targaryensims) take this moment to unmask in front of one another. She reveals herself to be a lady of The Reach - Myrielle Mullendore.
He is astonished by her beauty - and she - despite his colorful costume - is pleasantly surprised to find the Crown Prince of Dorne, behind the mask.
Trystane had not imagined finding a match tonight - but it seems almost as if she were made by The Maiden, just for him.
Before Myrielle departs with her escort and father, an arrangement has already been made. After their stay at Torrentine Hall, Myrielle and her father would return with Trystane to Sunspear. There, the young couple would begin a formal courtship.
Near the piano, Aelor bows nervously as he unmasks before Lady Wildflower (by @wavvie). She in turn, removes her own mask - a coy smile on her face as she is revealed to be Jeyne Tyrell, of The Reach.
With the reveal of Jeyne's identity, Aelor feels his heart soar with joy. It was known across Westeros, that she cares not for titles, but for the excitement of living itself. He does not need to be a Prince or a Lord to earn her heart and hold a place there.
The two make plans to meet the following day, hoping to find a way to delay Jeyne's return to Highgarden.
It seems Torrentine Hall awaits....
this is our last story post at the ball!
once again, a massive shoutout to @starlightpixels and @wavvie for the mask reveal poses & object conversions of masks!
keep an eye out for release of the poses, along with other cc from my collaborators @simstoricalish, @lechairschair, @sulsulzukohere, @thesimsoficeandfire, @bellevalentim, @kerosims, & @starlightpixels which will be available before the end of the event!
After conversing with the several remaining contenders, Valarr has made his way to the upper levels of the open hall. Ever the caring sister, Ymme, senses his nerves and joins him - offering no advice, simply the comfort of her quiet presence.
Prince Valarr and Princess Ymme stand near the flower-covered railing, as the prince reflects back on the events of the night.
It is nearly a quarter to midnight, when the sound of hooves against stone reaches Valarr's ears. He looks over the balcony railing - and it is only then that he notices guests departing. In a brief moment of panic, there is only one person on his mind...
Lady Muse.
Images of time spent with Lady Muse (by @starlightpixels) from throughout the night flash through Valarr's mind. In this moment, he is sure that she is the one.
Composing himself, he leaves his sister's side and quickly heads towards where he last had seen Lady Muse. By the time that he has made his way there, his panic seems justified. Only a handful of the ladies remain - those who had been most hopeful for a match.
But she is not among them.
Even Valarr's mask cannot hide his disappointment.
A final glance around the hall as the clock strikes midnight, confirms that majority of the guests have already left for the night. He thanks each of the remaining women for attending before guiding the group to the awaiting carriages.
It seems to be a disappointing end to a beautiful night for the young prince.
Valarr removes his mask for the first time since the start of the masquerade. As he heads to his parents to break the news - something catches his eye by the water. He leans down, picking up the small white and gold mask - discarded not far from where he had last seen his chosen.
It's her mask. But how did it get there?
Valarr decides quickly, that part does not matter so much.
Upon closer inspection of the mask, he notices an engraving - the mask maker's signature. It reads: surely-sims of Liera.
As Valarr runs his thumb over the engraving, he breathes a sigh of relief.
If Lady Muse hailed from the Kingdom of Liera as the mask indicated, he should be able to find her among the royals and nobles staying at Torrentine Hall...
just a few more story posts, before the event wraps up!
while Valarr may not have learned the identity of Lady Muse tonight, a few of other pairs will get the chance unmask & reveal their identities, concluding this part of the story.
massive shoutout to @starlightpixels and @wavvie for the mask related poses & object conversions of masks!
also a huge shoutout to @surely-sims - as many of the event attendees wore masks from The Midnight Masquerade collection.
keep an eye out for release of the poses, along with other cc from my collaborators @simstoricalish, @lechairschair, @sulsulzukohere, @thesimsoficeandfire, @bellevalentim, @kerosims, & @starlightpixels which will be available before the end of the event!
As the Prince takes some time to himself, it seems others may have found love and friendship at...
A Royal Masquerade
Lady Wildflower (by @wavvie) has returned dance floor! After being stolen from her dance with Valarr earlier in the night, she has not been seen further than an arm's reach from Ser Aelor.
Not far from the pair are The Gentle Dragon (by @bellevalentim) and her escort, who similarly have not left each other's sides for most of the eve.
With few adults present on the floor, the young Princess Jynessa joins Larra Ladybright for a dance - one that the young nobles had recently learned from their instructors.
Away from the dance floor, The Silver Lioness (by @sulsulzukohere) and Lady Amphitrite (by @targaryenbloodx) have sat down for a game of Cyvasse, their escorts watching on. It seems the two have been at it for quite some time - their wits evenly matched.
Eventually, Lady Venus (by @florians-simblr) joins the small crowd around the playing pair, and is approached by one of her previous dance partners - the long-widowed King Rickard Stark. It appears this artistic soul has peaked the Northern King's interest, after many years since the loss of his wife, Serena.
Eventually losing interest in the game of Cyvasse, Lady Monarch (by @targaryensims) moves towards the dance floor, hoping to dance once more before the end of the night. She is greeted by Prince Trystane - a longing look in the Dornish man's masked eyes. He eagerly requests her hand - and in that moment, their fates are intertwined.
romance is in the air for quite a few of our attendees - and that's not even all of them!

As the first (and main) part of the story comes to a close, Valarr has found six of the original twenty ladies to be suitable matches.

As a small recap, our finalists, whose true identities remain unknown to the Royal family are...
Lady Andromeda by @seyvia, Lady Lunara by @queensoflumis, Lady Muse by @starlightpixels, The Enchantress by @invisiblequeen, The Little Sparrow by @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants, and The Sea Maiden by @honeysylvan.

As the music concludes, the conversation begins...
A Royal Masquerade - The Prince Converses
While our other attendees seek out entertainment, drinks, and food for the remainder of the ball - Prince Valarr heads to a quieter area of the open floor.
As he finds a seat among the many available, two of our most charismatic contenders' approach, and are the first to take their place on either side of him.
The Sea Maiden (by @honeysylvan) is the first to speak, telling the Prince of her many adventures on the open waters. Lady Lunara (by @queensoflumis) speaks next of her own travels, and the countless clans she has ventured to meet. In return, Valarr recounts a recent adventure of his own to the wordly women.
Taking the seats of the previous contenders, Lady Harlequin by (@applesaucesims) and The Pale Rose (by @lechairschair) are the next to approach. Full of energy and passion, they regal the prince with stories of parties and assassinations. While Valarr is initially able to engage in the conversation with both women, it eventually turns into a debate between the two - as to who had led a more exiting life thus far.
Changing couches, he sits next with Lady Light (by @houseofsimsgaryen) and Lady Hestia (by @jonquilyst). Perhaps overwhelmed by the nervous ramblings of Lady Light, the Lady Hestia struggles to get a word in - but then again, so does Valarr. Although beautiful and kind, it seems that meaningful dialogue with either of these ladies is out of the question.
Lady Andromeda (by @seyvia) and The Little Sparrow (by @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants) are the next take their seats besides Valarr. Sensing their nervousness of the pair, he finds himself opening the conversation this time. He speaks of his own nerves surrounding the event, and his hopes for true love. His openness calms the two, and in return, the two share tales of their own recent losses, leading to their search for love.
It is hard to say if our final ladies were simply patient, or if they were smart enough to purposefully wait and claim the final conversation with the young Dayne - but it seems to have paid off either way.
The Enchantress (by @invisiblequeen) and Lady Muse (by @starlightpixels) are the last to converse with the prince, standing closer to the water. The two intelligent women take the time allotted to them discussing the lands they hail from, and their goals to forge strong diplomatic relationships with kingdoms far and wide. By the end of the conversation between the trio, it seems that each of their kingdoms has gained allies - regardless of the event's outcome.
As he wraps up his discussion with final pairing, the clock strikes eleven. The end of the night is nearing, and Valarr must make a decision.
He has found 6 of the 10 with whom he conversed to be suitable matches. Surely given the chance, he believes he would be able to find the love that he desires with any of these women - but there can only be one...
want to know which these ladies are the final to move on to the public vote, and how? keep reading for more!
this final stat-based elimination round was decided, using the combination of points from the intelligence and elegance categories.
this one was pretty close - with our highest point combination being 13, and our lowest point combination being 9.
eliminated in the final round, with 10 or less points, we have Lady Light by @houseofsimsgaryen, The Pale Rose by @lechairschair, Lady Hestia by @jonquilyst, and Lady Harlequin by @applesaucesims.
this means that our final contenders for the poll are....
Lady Lunara by @queensoflumis, Lady Muse by @starlightpixels, The Enchantress by @invisiblequeen, The Sea Maiden by @honeysylvan, The Little Sparrow by @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants, and Lady Andromeda by @seyvia.
today's post comes a bit early, so that the poll can go live, tonight!
while the poll is live for the next three days, be sure to stay tuned for some side story & lookbook posts, as well as cc from my collaborators @simstoricalish @lechairschair @sulsulzukohere @thesimsoficeandfire @bellevalentim @kerosims & @starlightpixels!
the story will resume about a day or two after the final results are in <3
After a small moment to himself, Valarr returns to the dance floor...
A Royal Masquerade - The Prince Dances (Part 2 of 2)
Following the slight from his close friend, Lord Aelor, Valarr makes careful choice of his next partner.
The prince kicks off his return to the floor with The Little Sparrow (by @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants), where the pair is joined by her escorts for a dance. Soren teases the young man, claiming the next dance should be reserved for Hjordis. Following this lively dance the tempo slows, and he takes his place besides Lady Hestia (by @jonquilyst).
his eleventh dance is full of laughter, as The Pale Rose (by @lechairschair) stumbles over her own two feet and on occasion, his. After such graceful partners during the last few dances, he finds himself relaxed by the difference in demeanor with this partner.
the twelfth dance of the night is claimed by The Moonlit Maiden (by @thesimsoficeandfire), who awkwardly, avoids any eye contact with Valarr. During his following dance with Lady Venus (by @florians-simblr), the mother of three seems to have her focus taken away from the prince, with her own daughters beside them on the dance floor...
Only two more dances remain for the night, and the heir to Starfall has his final partners in mind from the presentations made earlier in the night.
he takes Lady Harlequin's (by @applesaucesims) hand, for another slow-paced-dance. The look of relief on Lady Andromeda's (by @seyvia) face is hidden by her mask, but the change in her demeanor is clear as she is offered the final dance of the night.
the music finally dies down, and a moment of respite is in reach for Valarr. Having danced with most of the eligible ladies thus far, he has now come to another moment of decision making.
From the 14 ladies who he shared a dance with; he decides on 10 with whom he would like to converse.
this elimination piggybacks off of the previous post, where all sims were scored on initial compatibility & attraction from -2 to +2 (with -2 being the equivalent to a compatibility of "awful" and an attraction of "very unattracted", and +2 being the equivalent of "amazing" and "very attracted").
six sims were tied with a score of 2! as this was more than i was aiming to eliminate in this round, the luck stat came into play for these lovely ladies.
this time around, the highest number of points in this category was 5. the lowest was 2.
eliminated in this round, with a luck of 2, we have Lady Venus by @florians-simblr and The Moonlit Maiden by @thesimsoficeandfire.
moving on to the next round from this group we have The Pale Rose by @lechairschair, The Little Sparrow by @ethicaltreatmentofcowplants, Lady Andromeda by @seyvia, Lady Harlequin by @applesaucesims, and Lady Hestia by @jonquilyst.
as a reminder from our previous dances - we have also have Lady Lunara by @queensoflumis, Lady Muse by @starlightpixels, The Enchantress by @invisiblequeen, The Sea Maiden by @honeysylvan, and Lady Light by @houseofsimsgaryen moving on.
while you wait for the next round of elimination, be sure to check out my collaborators for more content @simstoricalish @lechairschair @sulsulzukohere @thesimsoficeandfire @bellevalentim @kerosims & @starlightpixels
there is one more round of stat based elimination, coming soon. after that, it'll be up to YOU to decide who Valarr pursues in the end!
As the music picks up, it is time for the dancing to begin...
A Royal Masquerade - The Prince Dances (Part 1 of 2)
When the first chord is struck, Valarr can practically feel the dozens of masked eyes, watching his every move.
Taking a deep breath, the prince strides across the room to the very first lady that catches his eye, Lady Light. With confidence, she takes his hand in hers - accepting his invitation without words.
And the first dance of the night ensues.
Valarr takes to the dance floor for the first time tonight with Lady Light (by @houseofsimsgaryen). Her escorts are unable to contain their excitement.
After his dance with such a gentle partner, Valarr spends the next half hour on the ballroom floor - changing hands from one lady to the next. Surely tonight, he is glad of the lessons his station forced him to take.
he spends his second dance with The Enchantress (by @invisiblequeen), and third with The Sea Maiden (by @honeysylvan) - during these early dances, the chemistry is off the charts!
fourth dance of the night, with The Winter Star (by @simsandnobles) goes smoothly - but the prince feels none of the sparks that he did with the first three contenders. His following dance, with Lady le Faye (by @kyrassimhoard) goes similarly.
as he partners with the Lady Lunara (by @queensoflumis), and then later Lady Muse (by @starlightpixels), he finds himself taking lead from women more graceful than he ever could have imagined.
it comes as a shock to all, that before the 8th dance, Valarr's selected partner Lady Wildflower is swiftly stolen from his grasp - by none other than Lord Aelor!
Rather than dancing the waltz with the Prince as originally intended, Lady Wildflower (by @wavvie) reluctantly accepts the hand of his silver haired friend, who seems to already be enamored by the maiden.
with several more songs to go, and a maiden stolen from his grasp Valarr takes a short break from dancing...
want to know who is moving on from this group, and how it was decided? keep reading for more!
in addition to stats mentioned last time around, all of our submitted sims came with at least 3 traits, and an aspiration true to their nature. some even had skills and preferences of their own!
this round was about seeing who Valarr was the most in tune with.
all sims were scored on initial compatibility & attraction from -2 to +2 (with -2 being the equivalent to a compatibility of "awful" and an attraction of "very unattracted", and +2 being the equivalent of "amazing" and "very attracted").
the contenders, Lady le Faye by @kyrassimhoard, Lady Wildflower by @wavvie, and The Winter Star by @simsandnobles had a combined score of 1 or lower and were immediately eliminated.
moving on from this group, we have Lady Lunara by @queensoflumis, Lady Muse by @starlightpixels, The Enchantress by @invisiblequeen, The Sea Maiden by @honeysylvan, and Lady Light by @houseofsimsgaryen.
some goodies have already been released, and more are to come! be sure to check out my collaborators for more content @simstoricalish @lechairschair @sulsulzukohere @thesimsoficeandfire @bellevalentim @kerosims & @starlightpixels
stay tuned for another dance post, coming tomorrow!
