My sister also gave me her Love Songs of Sappho book, so I was inspired to mess around with several editing apps on my feeble attempts of an outfit post I nearly butchered.

Sappho, from Monmusu, I didn't know that she had a name.
I tried doing a complex shading, but I still have a lot to learn (and also fix my monitor).
