Re: Ponyville Business District - The Carousel Boutique
Rarity's eyes followed Luna as she looked over her creations, looking for any sign of what the Alicorn thought. Did she love them? Hate them? Her face was so stoic and poised that it was difficult for the fashionista to tell either way. Patience, she reminded herself. Any great work of art needed to be looked over thoroughly before a solid opinion was made, at least in high society. And you didn't get any higher than royalty!
"Yes, yes?" she asked, voice brimming with eagerness as her Princess stuttered slightly with her words. The unicorn was practically leaning on her front hooves, looking slightly childish before she corrected herself with a flash of embarrassment, trying to regain that professional, refined pose that she was well noted for.
As the criticisms hit, Rarity couldn't help but frown slightly as she looked back over the three ensembles she had created. It was true, the two outfits that were white and adorned with gems were based on designs Rarity had done with Celestia in mind during several creative surges, but they were hardly suited for a Princess of the Night, even if they were rather stylish and form-fitting. Still, it was hard not to knock herself for not catching this fact earlier.
"Well, I-" Rarity stumbled, trying to find the correct words, "I had assumed that you and your sister would have similar tastes, but, well, that was silly of me. White is very "in" this season, and, well, the gemstones were my own personal touch, but... The customer is always right, of course! You have no need to be sorry, Princess. -I'm- the one who should be sorry, thinking that you would appreciate something so bright. Whatever was I thinking...?"
Though she was a bit hurt, mostly by her own perceived stupidity, she moved the two white dresses to the side with her magic and brought the blue star-themed one forward.
"Oh, please, do try on whatever you'd like!" Rarity encouraged, trying to hide her speck of pain and loss of confidence with enthusiasm, "And, if you don't like these, well, I have a whole new line of pegasus fashions that you may also look through. With a little adjusting, I'm absolutely sure they'll be perfect for you, if you find one that stands out."
