Wilfrid Gabriel de Glehn (British, 1870 - 1951):
1. Portrait of Mavis Yorke, ca. 1920.
2. Mavis Yorke dancing in 'Where the Rainbow Ends', 1913, oil on canvas, 44 × 34 inches.
3. Miss Mavis Yorke, child actress and dancer. Original photograph, pub. 1916.
"Celebrated as a child actress, Mavis Yorke made her debut in 1911 at the Savoy in 'Where the Rainbow Ends', a musical revue whose cast included a twelve-year-old Noel Coward, playing a naughty page boy. Later, Coward recalled Yorke as 'a fragile little thing... she played Will O' the Wisp and was exquisite; she flitted through the woods and glades of the production to Roger Quilter's gentle music and there was in her a quality of magic'. (See N. Coward, Present Indicative, p. 27.)"
"De Glehn painted her as Will o'the Wisp in 1913, and again, seven years later in the present portrait."

According to the notes on Elise's character design sheet, the emblem on her garters is meant to be a Hydrangea! Though these flowers are often seen clustered together in a way not depicted in her accessory, you can clearly make out the four-petaled shape of the individual flowers!
Tumblr media
These flowers are associated with Japan's rainy season in June. In the Japanese flower language, Hanakotoba, the hydrangea is associated with concepts like "strong love," "family," "sincerity," and "apologies."
Blue Hydrangeas specifically can be associated with concepts like "indifferent and cold," "ruthlessness," and "patient, loyal affection."
White Hydrangeas can be associated with "open-mindedness."
Tumblr media
Kawarazaki Shodo (1889-1973)
Since Elise is a character created in Japan, these concepts were likely considered while choosing which flower to put on her garter!
But Ishana, where she lives, is more rooted in European culture, so let's take a look at Victorian flower language as well!
In this variant of floral symbolism, hydrangeas are instead associated with "pridefulness," "boastfulness," and "cold heartedness!" There were even some legends in the 1800s suggesting that women who grew hydrangeas in their yards would be unlucky in love- cursed to never marry, and die alone.

As an added note; Kuon wears a similar garter with an emblem that looks like a lily!

Jane de Glehn at Cheyne Walk, London, England (1904). Wilfred Gabriel de Glehn (British, 1870-1951). Oil on canvas.
Wilfrid and Jane married in La Rochelle in 1904 and, after a brief honeymoon departed for England where they settled at 73 Cheyne Walk, London. Before the First World War the de Glehns frequently travelled with John Singer Sargent in Europe, and all three, when sketching together, invariably incorporated portraits of each other in their work. Sargent frequently visited the de Glehns' Chelsea house, which became a gathering place for the British Impressionists. Both Jane and Wilfrid exhibited at the Royal Academy and the New English Art Club.
