The sixth and final look of "Murder Under the Mistletoe" (Season 2, Episode 13) is an eyecatching dress and cape combo made of shimmering red and gold fabric, along with a festive feather headband.
Phryne's holiday dress is made of a tarnished gold metallic lace, finely woven together, with a slip of antique maroon georgette worn underneath. It has a slightly scooped neckline and two straps over her shoulders. Adding to the luxe drama of the party, Phryne adds a beautiful capelet to her look. The capelet is a complementary floral metallic, and has fitted shoulders and wraps loosely around her neck. Her exaggerated split sleeves create movement and waft across the champagne and conversation.
She adds to her look with a feathered headband - hand dyed to match her dress, with a series of feathers set in a circle to imitate a nest, with a small bead serving as a wink at an egg. Two rosettes made from the same feathers, one slightly smaller than the other, rest on her left shoulder to accentuate the headpiece.
Miss Fisher finishes her ensemble with a brass flower ring with a jade center and gold t-strap heels, worn previously in 2x09 with her 'Golden Girl' dress.

Miss Fisher Snippets (171)
Under the mistletoe. Kiss! Kiss!
Thanks to Aunt P, the kiss didn’t happen on screen, but it did in many installments of fanfic and in our fantasies. This is my version of them under the mistletoe after all the family and guests had left the parlor. What else to do but embrace and lock lips?
********************
p.s. This edit was originally posted on 24-Dec-2017 as part of my Miss Fisher Christmas Cards 2017 mini-series. Happy Christmas to all. Whether you celebrate it for religious reason or simply for the festive spirit, may your holiday season be filled with much love and many kisses.

My year
Taking a chance The year is nearly at an end and I couldn’t let it pass without a little reflection on how different it has been for me. This was the year of the great change, from thirty years of writing romance to becoming a published crime writer. Murder Among the Roses was a book of the heart. A story that had been sitting, half-formed, in the bottom of my desk for years. It was a story I…

The third ensemble of "Murder Under the Mistletoe" (Season 2, Episode 13) is Phryne's beautiful antique printed jacket atop her intricately beaded black blouse and black pants.
Combining detail and drama, Miss Fisher wears a black blouse with a sheer yoke decorated with intricate beading in a geometric art deco pattern, extending from a central point and curving around to the back. The blouse has long sleeves and tight fitted cuffs, and two ribbons connected by a zig-zagging thread along her neckline (known as a fagoted seam).
The short-sleeve silk jacket worn on top adds a layer of subtle festivity to the look with bright green silk lining and a pattern of papyrus branches and reeds printed on the outside. A vintage piece, this been described as one of Essie Davis' favorite costumes:
“Another one of my favorite costumes is what I wore on the very first day of filming - to meet Murdoch Foyle (Phryne’s younger sister’s murderer) in jail. It was black silk pants with a little black top in sheer black chiffon with beading and a fantastic antique short-sleeved jacket in an orange, gold and black design that reminds me of a Margaret Preston painting." - Essie Davis, Miss Fisher’s Costume Exhibition
Margaret Preston was considered the most prominent female Australian artist of the 1920′s and 1930′s. In a desire to create art that reflected her country, she was the first non-indigenous artist to use Aboriginal elements in her paintings. Her “Still Life” from 1925 appeared in “Raisins and Almonds” (1x05) where Miss Fisher declares “Margaret Preston is a talent to watch”, and hangs to the left of her fireplace in her parlor.
Phryne finishes her look with her classic black silk faille pants, long green teardrop earrings (seen on the right in the exhibition photo), and a black beaded necklace that feature larger beads on either side of the central beaded fringe. During a quick trip out into the snow to investigate with Jack, she dons a black fur wrap, seen in 2x01.
A fabulous ensemble, we've seen this exact outfit (apart from the jewelry) in both "Raisins and Almonds" (1x05) and twice in "Death By Miss Adventure" (1x10).

MISTLETOE, BUT ACTUALLY HOLLY
☾ ft. tetsuro kuroo
☾ sfw. because who doesn't find the tradition amusing? 920
Tumblr media
somebody on the nekoma boys volleyball team thought it would be funny to hang mistletoe above the clubroom door. it was all in good fun, taking advantage of a year old holiday tradition to laugh at the embarrassed and defensive expressions of his fellow teammates as they tried to escape from the obligatory kiss in a fluster.
it was kuroo. kuroo was the somebody who thought it would be funny.
it was actually holly, and he’d explain the differences in the plant without anyone asking or caring, but the tradition still stood. his mom had asked him to rummage around in a box tucked away with old decor to see if she could find anything remotely festive to celebrate the holiday season. as he was rummaging around through bunches of tangled strings of fairy lights with dead bulbs and old gingerbread kits, his eyes brightened in curiosity as he retrieved a small plastic holly plant from the very bottom of the pile. 
and he’s sure glad he went through with his plan to bring it into school, too, because the look on yaku’s face as he grew red with anger and shouted over his embarrassment at walking under the plant with lev was absolutely priceless. 
“now the two of you gotta kiss.” he laughed as he leaned against the lockers, arms crossed over his chest. yaku gave him a murderous look. 
“we aren’t doing anything!” 
lev, too amused with admiring and flicking the mistletoe (which was shorter than him), didn’t pay much mind to yaku’s disgust, though if had noticed, he probably would’ve taken a disappointedly offended stance at his suggestion. 
“guess you’re in a festive mood, kuroo.” kai muttered as he glanced at him with a sort of nervous smile, removing his jacket. kuroo chuckled. 
“just thought it would be fun. i thought you of all people would get a kick out of it, yamamoto.” kuroo turned toward his junior with the distinct blonde mohawk, who only scowled at him from over his shoulder as he opened his locker. 
“you better watch your back, kuroo. you’re next!” he pointed an accusatory finger at him, still disgruntled over the fact that he had (nearly) walked into the club room in sync with kenma. kuroo scoffed. 
“like you could get me!” 
“yeah? stand under the doorway, then!” yaku chimed in, shooting him an irritated glare. kuroo’s eyes darted between him and the mistletoe at the door. there was only a brief pause in between before kuroo strided toward the door and lingered at the threshold, teasingly taking steps in and out of the club room. yaku hissed. 
“see? can’t get me.” he smirked, and with that, the rest of his body, along with his face, disappeared behind the wall and heading to unlock the gym. 
on his return back, kuroo puffed out a breath of fog and shivered. it had snowed the night before, leaving a strong chill in the dry air, and he was eager to get inside the club room as quickly as possible to where the heat was. 
just as he was about to step inside, however, he heard a voice, and immediately recognizing it, his heart somersaulted in his chest.
“kuroo!” it cried, and it sounded close too, so close that kuroo instantly felt his face warm when he turned around and was immediately met with your face only inches from him.
your cheeks were rosy from the cold, even despite a scarf wrapped snug around your neck and a hat keeping your head warm. your jacket also zipped up to your chin, and he couldn’t help but grow increasingly nervous with every passing moment he spent looking at your eager expression. 
it only took kuroo a single semester’s worth of partnerwork for him to grow utterly hopeless around you--and everyone knew it. it was hard for anyone to miss his clumsy demeanour or tinted cheeks around you, so much so it was a miracle that somehow you hadn’t picked up on all the signs. 
fumbling with his hands, tripping over his words, prolonged eye contact; he shrinks when he thinks about how he's reduced to a klutz around you.
“kuroo, hey! i'm glad i was able to catch you! i have these papers from minaho sensei that you missed when you were on your away game.” 
you extended a hand to hand him said papers, slightly crumpled in your freezing grip. he quickly took them from you upon noticing. 
“oh, thank you so much. i don’t know what i would do without—“ 
“ooooooou, kuroo, you sly bastard! you had to have planned that!” 
the two of you both looked in toward the classroom at a disgruntled, shirtless yamamoto, who seemed so distressed you were almost taken aback. kuroo narrowed his eyes.  
“what the hell are you talking abo—-?”
and then the green above his head caught his peripherals, and amidst the cold, kuroo started to sweat. 
the two of you slowly looked up in unison at the mistletoe, the mischief device of kuroo’s own division, gleaming in the sun. you had stepped onto the threshold under the mistletoe, resulting in the two of you now both stuck having to fulfill in a year old tradition. 
truly, it was a miracle you didn’t catch the signs. 
yaku’s eyebrow shot up in satisfaction, fulfilling kuroo's previous position with his arms crossed over his shoulder and leaning against the lockers. “got you.” 
the two of you slowly turn toward one another with wide eyes and flustered expressions. 
truly, it wasn't so much a miracle that kuroo didn’t catch the signs either.

KEEP ON
⤷ JOHNNY SUH, 13.6k
All things love and commitment are feared upon by you. You keep a tight crew and let few people in, cynical of other’s intentions and leaving a trail of broken hearts in your wake. If you break other people’s hearts first, they can’t break yours. And yet, it was all too easy falling for Johnny, digging yourself into a depthless hole of love. But he is no exception to your heartache games.
WAITING GAME
⤷ JOHNNY SUH, 9.1k, 1/4 of the Temptation series.

After three years away from Miami, Taeyong is finally ready to return to the city. He left a world behind here, but most importantly, he left you. And being invited on a friendly get-together trip to a beach resort gives him a little too much time to resume unfinished business between you both.
DRESS CODE

Nakamoto Yuta and his rings have caught your eye. In an effort to seduce your professor, you decide to take your best friend’s advice and change your wardrobe.

VENOMOUS
⤷ NAKAMOTO YUTA, 18.8k
Born into the underworld, crime was all you’d known your entire life and was practically in your blood - murder, drugs, money, power, and everything in between. In spite of your father leading one of the two major gangs that dominated Asia, you managed to keep safe. But all that changes once the rival gang has bad blood to settle with your father, and suddenly a vendetta’s being pursued against you.
WHISPER
⤷ KIM DOYOUNG, 8.9k, 2/4 of the Temptation series.
When you were nineteen, you could only dream of meeting Kim Doyoung in his sheets. Behind his back you watched all the movies he starred in, wanting nothing more than to be the one he touched whenever a sex scene came on.

And even if feelings developed.
DIE IN YOUR ARMS
⤷ JEONG JAEHYUN, 22.4k
Every single night before bed, you play your royal husband, Jaehyun, a song on his grandfather's piano as a distraction from the ominous sounds you hear. To the public, you're all smiles, but discreetly, you're a slave to your suspicions. Though it seems the more you pry, the more secrets you start to unravel.
HONEYMOON AVENUE
⤷ JEONG JAEHYUN, 12.3k
A year ago, wedding bells were ringing and you were screaming, “Yes!” at the top of your lungs. Last Christmas, you were supposed to be wed under a mistletoe.

WHERE ANGELS FEAR TO TREAD
⤷ JEONG JAEHYUN, 14.5k
Three years ago, you had a summer fling with Jung Jaehyun, and what was simply sex turned into more after you caught feelings for him. Then, you find out he has a girlfriend, and decide to call it quits. Three years later, he's back in town, trying to come back in your life, and most importantly trying to come back into your heart, but you're a little hesitant to let him.
WISH I NEVER
⤷ JEONG JAEHYUN, 27.2k
Your brother, Johnny, hates Jaehyun and has never told you why. Although you intend on leaving it alone, unforeseen events thrust you into a forbidden love affair with Jaehyun. In between hookups and stolen kisses, you have to bury your feelings for Jaehyun around your overprotective older brother.
CAN YOU KEEP IT DOWN?
⤷ MARK LEE, 10.4k, 4/4 of the Temptation series
The apartment next door to yours has been vacant for months. No one had gone in or out, not until your new next door neighbor moved in two weeks ago. Mark, a slightly older guy who prides himself on his patience and willpower with a penchant for control. But when you make it clear you’re resolved to wither away the things he values most, Mark decides he’s down for the challenge, determined to put a leash on your unrestrained behavior - and most importantly, finally shut you the hell up.
EX MARKS THE SPOT
⤷ MARK LEE, 19.9k
Two months ago, you and Mark called it quits and haven’t spoken to each other since. As per tradition, your respective friend groups gather each Christmas eve to keep the peace, but this year somebody has a different plan. And the new chick on Mark’s arm isn’t the worst thing to happen.
PRETTY LITTLE WEAPON
⤷ MARK LEE, 25.7k

CHANGE YOUR MIND YET?
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, 4.6k
You’re going to kill him. You swear, You’re going to kill him. how did Liu Yangyang accidentally tell Lee Donghyuck—your greatest enemy—that you think he’s hot and that you’ve been in a dry spell recently? Now you have to avoid the inevitable confrontation, and worst of all, deal with the most stubborn person alive (who ironically thinks that you’re the most stubborn person alive).
FOREVER YOURS
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, 23k
Thirst for exhilaration and a stupid dare brings you, your boyfriend Haechan, and your friends to the eerie camping grounds of Chimera - the name of a town rumored to be occupied by a number of vengeful, lurking spirits. But nothing is as it seems in this ghost town.
LOVE JONES
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, 25.5k

SMILE FOR THE CAMERA
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, PARK JISUNG, 19.8k
upon accidentally finding a video of you and your boyfriend haechan doing some very sexual things, jisung knows that he shouldn’t watch it. he knows that it would be an extreme invasion of privacy, but he’s unable to control himself when he sees the thumbnail. so he settles for only watching 30 seconds. except, 30 seconds turns into 30 minutes, and by then he’s buried himself too deep into a life-changing situation—or in which jisung’s terrible at keeping secrets.
SUPERMODEL
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, 23k
Five years ago, you left your hometown and ex to recreate your identity in California. Now, you're a staple of the fashion industry and on the front cover of magazines everywhere. Your hard work has paid off, but when you realize that you might be pregnant, you have to decide whether you want to be a full-time model or a full-time mother.
THE DEVIL’S CUP
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, 6.8k
In a world where humans and demons are separated by earth and the unknown, you’re curious about the creatures that most mortal beings are too frightened to investigate. More specifically if they can please you sexually. As they say, curiosity killed the cat.
WHO NEEDS CUPID’S BOW?
⤷ LEE HAECHAN, 11.1k
Cupid is not on your side, it seems. He’s made you fall in love with the worst possible person ever, AKA your best friend, AKA the man who still eats tootsie-pops—willingly. And frankly, it feels like the damn candy has a better chance of dating him than you ever will.
