The Fashion Designer

"Gosh, I hate all of those over the top outfits. Just make it cute, comfortable and cool to wear outside."

Name: Adela Adler-Bresett

Age: 40

Gender: Female

Sexuality: Lesbian

Appearance: Media. She usually wears her own designs.

Personality: Adela has a tendency to be forgetful or lose focus quickly when it comes to things she's not particularly interested in. She doesn't like dealing with complicated or boring things and will leave those matters to more experienced and professional people in those fields. When she's feeling extremely sad or lonely, she often buys new things for herself, though she doesn't use many of the things she buys. She can be childish at times and will sometimes throw fits when things go wrong for her, but she's trying to work on that part of herself and not act this way often. She's very creative and has a good eye for fashion and color matching, which is how she got to where she is today. She knows how to make beautiful designs for all body types, and she likes more simplistic designs rather than eccentric ones. She likes being surrounded by people and feels uncomfortable, lonely, or sad when she has to be alone for long periods of time.

Background: Adela was the second and youngest child in her family. Adela's father left when she was 3 years old, leaving her to live with her mother, her aunt and her brother who was 17 at the time. Since she was a young child she loved drawing and was amazed by models and the pretty clothes they wore. Her family gave her several drawing books that were meant exactly for designing clothes and encouraged her to draw and design. Adela's aunt passed away when Adela was 8 years old, and she later designed something that reminded her of her style to respect her memory. Adela got to show off her designs in a public display when she was 18 after catching the eye of someone who was searching for young, bright, and creative minds at different high schools. The display took place shortly after her graduation and was a big deal. Many people came to see it, including a model named Charlotte Bresett that was very interested and offered her services to show the clothes on a real person and not on a mannequin. After that they began talking and eventually started dating. Adela married Charlotte when she was 21 and they've been married for 4 years until Charlotte was diagnosed with cancer and passed away a few months later. 3 years after that, Adela's brother had been killed in an accident. Adela tried dating again but she didn't find anyone who understood her the way Charlotte did, and she couldn't move on, so she decided to stop searching for dates. She continued to work and had made a name for herself in the fashion industry. Adela's mother passed away when Adela was 38 years old and she left all of her inheritance to her, including her house. Adela moved back into her childhood house and has been living there ever since.

Likes: Soft things, drawing, hot drinks, designing, runway shows, calm music.

Dislikes: Loud and high sounds, bad weather, being cold, being alone, ridiculous outfits.

Theme song: Hurts Like Hell - Fleurie

Other: Due to her liking of soft fabrics she has several collections of soft or fluffy clothing articles such as socks, hats, sweaters, etc.
