She had an innate sense of style and a good eye for colour. It was inevitable for the women in the mainland kingdom to imitate the Third Princess's tastes in fashion. Her hairstyle, clothes and shoes were slavishly imitated. It was unanimously agreed that she was the top trendsetter of the nation. Anyone who wanted to stay in court must be competitive in all things including fashion.

It contrasted beautifully with her shiny pink hair. During the ball, women oohed and aahed at the natural decoration on her hair.

"They're from my lover," Euphemia said brightly. "It matches Lelouch's eyes, don't you think?"

The Second Prince Schneizel smirked at his younger brother. He lowered his voice for the dark-haired lad's ears. "It's not a very subtle approach. I win."
Lelouch sighed in defeat.
It was noticed that all the women in the kingdom wore ribbons in their hair to match their lover's eyes on the next day. Euphemia had set the trend yet again.
