Dearest Readers,

 

       Haeseni fashion has escalated to new heights since the rule of Koenas Annika, and her efforts to encourage the resurgence of Ruskan Fashion. As the newly appointed Mistress of the Wardrobe within the household of Koenas Emma, Her Highness  Nikoleta and her assistants shall continue to build upon Annika’s legacy and provide a new revitalization and regulation of fashion standards, breathing in new life to the Haeseni court and exploring our culture. Without further ado, we present Moda i ve Kort: The Brooches of the Queen’s Council.


Queen’s Brooches are a new concept, ordered by Her Royal Majesty, for the essential and important members of the court and her Council to be publicly honored. Each design, differing from one another, indicates the status and importance of their role within the courts - designs which span from those on the Queen’s Council, to the Koenas herself. 

 

These pins are to be gifted by the Queen: traditionally an inauguration to join her council, or as recognition and reward for hard work. One may wear it anywhere and everywhere, especially at formal events hosted by the Council. It functions as an unofficial order of the Courts distinguished.

The Brooches

Koenas

Donned the “Koenas’ Brooch”, this intricately designed piece is made up of an gold design, with diamond inlays. The centerpiece is opal and a string of three pearls dangle from the lower-left corner to signify her as the head of the Queen’s Council and the Courts. As per tradition, the brooch is pinned on the left side of her garments. Furthermore, the Koenas might elect to wear a purple sash, therefore fashioning the pin to the material for her Council Meetings.

 

Grand Lady, Custodian, and Lady Chamberlain

The Grand Lady, Custodian, and Chamberlain make up the major positions in the courts, and function as the Queen’s Inner Council, reporting to the Monarch herself. Each has earned their spot and in turn, receive a slightly different brooch to indicate their hard work and dedication. They don a golden pin with a ruby inlay and- for the Grand Lady, a string of two pearls that dangle from the left corner of the piece. For the Custodian and Lady Chamberlain, it is just the one pearl. Again, these pins are traditionally worn on the left side of a courtier’s torso. 

 

Recognized Lords & Ladies of the Council

Recognized lords and ladies on the council are those who, while they do not make up the Inner Council of Grand Lady, Palace Custodian, or Chamberlain, they are still honored by the Queen, and wear an emerald brooch. The emerald stone is surrounded by a laced golden border, with a singular pearl attached to the lower-left corner. These brooches are, likewise, expected to traditionally be worn on the left side. Examples of who might be honored could span from any who hold a position in the Council or wider Courts: from Court Governess to Mistress of the Robes, or a lord or lady simply being gifted one by the Koenas, for their recent hard work or breakthrough study. There is much flexibility in that regard, and it is the Koenas who will present such an award.

 

The Queen’s Council

These brooches are worn by all other members of the Council, to recognise their importance and purpose serving the Koenas. A plain golden band that surrounds a sapphire, these brooches are too worn traditionally on the left-hand side. By wearing such pins with pride, it shows a unified front - the sapphire brooch symbolises the Council outwardly to the rest of the city, and distinguishes its members from the rest. 

 

 

The Koenas’ Commendation

This brooch is perhaps considered the most special, and was added some years after the first four were introduced to the Queen’s Council. The recipients of this pin are chosen by the Queen herself. They do not have to be a member of her Council, but instead it commends them for their contribution to the Royal Courts. Be they a servant, the Court Poet or Musician, any can receive this brooch and pin it to their chest with pride: their efforts, and enthusiasm recognised. Its design is that of an onyx stone, set into a brass brooch.

 


Signed,

Her Royal Majesty, Emma Karenina, Queen-Consort of Hanseti-Ruska

 

Her Highness, Nikoleta Barbara Morovar

Mistress of the Wardrobe

Nikoleta smiled fondly upon her work, she spent years finding the right jewels and the right amount of them for everyone.

Analiesa Vasila found herself with a faint smile upon her usually disgruntled features as she flicked her thinly formed fingers to tap away the ash of her cigarette. Feeling adequacy and hope of her new position on the Queens Council.
