I do not own DWP I have just used the characters for inspiration.
Emily and Serena are so cute.
The studio was set for the wedding shoot. Anne was roaming around changing this adding that. The area was off set with silk and linen scarves hung from the ceiling. Anne wanted everything to flow easily. The models were in the process of getting their hair and makeup done. Nigel was in the closet with Emily. He was hovering around making sure everything was perfect with her. Miranda looked on pleased.
Nigel took Emily and stood her up, "beautiful just beautiful." He turned Emily around facing a door. "Now watch that door." Nigel whistled.
The door opened and Emily gasped. "OH MY GOD Nigel."
A white silk strapless dress with gold and white embroidered appliques appeared. The skirt was long flowing pieces of silk. The bust was accented with a crisscross strip of silk.
Nigel helped the crew slip the dress over Emily's head. He knew this would be the cover art.
If Serena did not propose to the girl after this nothing would get her to.
Oleg Cassini had designed it and Nigel knew the first time he saw it Emily would be perfect in it. The dress was so soft and felt so romantic. Emily could not help herself and she had to twirl in it.
Miranda laughed. Emily stopped. Miranda walked over to the group. She smoothed the top of the dress, tucked a piece of hair and her fingers ran over the necklace and earrings Emily was wearing.
Miranda looked at Nigel. "Winston Sunflower?" Nigel smiled and nodded. "Emily you make the outfit look good." Miranda turned and left.
Miranda watched while Anne shoot the wedding dresses. They were all so beautiful she could not wait to see hers, and to see Andréa in hers.
Anne flew by Miranda. "Perfect just perfect."
Miranda smiled. It was time for Emily and Nigel was helping her walk into the studio.
Anne turned toward Miranda. "Were do you find all these rare and exquisite looking models?"
Miranda laughed stunning everyone in the studio. "They are my former assistances."
Anne grinned. "You are always looking."
Once Emily was up on the platform and Anne started positioning her Miranda went to the side where Serena was working her magic. "Serena I need you out here."
Serena looked up, "be right there Miranda." Serena walked to Miranda, "what is it you want?"
"Look up there tell me what you think." Miranda smiled and pointed to where Emily was posing on the platform.
Serena looked at the platform and staggered.
Miranda reached out and caught the pregnant women. "Careful I do not want you to hurt yourself."
Serena did not take her eyes off Emily as Anne put her through her paces. "She … she … is"
Miranda smiled and winked at Nigel. She had never helped someone with a love before. It was kind of fun. Miranda laughed. When Miranda saw Anne was finished she went over and asked her to snap a few pictures of Serena and Emily together. Nigel had to lead Serena up onto the platform as she was still in a state of shock. Anne did her magic and posed the two. Emily smiled at Serena.
"You … are so … lovely … stunning." Serena stammered.
Anne was snapping pictures.
Serena grabbed Emily's hands. "You … Please Emily … please marry me."
Emily took in a deep breath and smiled brightly. "Well it is about bloody time." Emily embraced Serena and whispered in her ear. "Yes."
Serena closed her eyes and beamed. Anne grinned another set of unique and stunning pictures.
"That is a wrap." Anne announced.
Miranda walked over to Anne and had a short conversation with the photographer.
Anne smiled. "I would love to."
Miranda was glowing, "Nigel."
Nigel walked over to Miranda. "Yes."
"Anne is photographing the wedding." Miranda barely whispered.
Nigel smiled.
Miranda looked up and spotted Alexandra standing in the corner, her eyes open wide taking everything in. "Alexandra, come over here."
The girl jumped having been told by everyone that this was private and Miranda would fire her if she tried to sneak a peek. Alexandra slowly started to walk toward Miranda. "I-I am sor…"
Nigel grinned and walked over to Alexandra and put his arm around her shoulders. "She's not mad."
Alexandra looked at Nigel surprised. How did he know what she was thinking?
"What do you think?" Miranda inquired.
Alexandra shot her a look of fear and terror. Miranda just asked her a question. She looked around. "The dress is flawless on Emily. The gold embellishments brings out the highlights in her hair, the flecks of gold in her eyes, and warms her skin color. She has great shoulders for a strapless dress. The free-flowing skirt keeps her youthful look, and when she looks at Serena her and the dress they just smolder."
Miranda arched an eyebrow and looked at Nigel.
Nigel grinned. "A winner." He turned around and left.
Alexandra looked around. What was he talking about?
"How are your sketches going?" Miranda inquired.
"Very well." Alexandra shined.
Miranda placed a hand in the small of her back and led her out of the studio. "I will be gone for a week. You, Nigel and Emily will pick out a few of your pieces have them made and ready when I come back so we can do a shoot."
Alexandra nodded.
"Your legal papers arrived and they have been signed." Miranda informed the young girl.
Alexandra stopped and looked at Miranda. "I was to be with John for the negotiation!"
Miranda smiled. The girl was strong and passionate. "There was no negotiation we accepted your offer."
Alexandra stepped back. "Yo - You did?" she squeaked.
Miranda smirked and nodded. "Now go to your sketches I have things to finish before I leave."
