But Elayne doesn't have such red hair.


I just read about the dress too, but no way Elayne has such red hair or such height.


The hair color and maybe the height are most likely mistakes. Also from the artist's description at Tor.com it seems that the woman on the left is supposed to be Elayne, since she states: "When you add in the thumbnail-size that ebook covers are often first seen at, I thought it best to focus on a few of the key characters: Elayne, Aviendha, and Nynaeve."
She obviously names the women in the picture from left to right.

The artist also explicitly mentions that she was especially informed on the correct clothing for the women, thus it's unlikely that she would give Elayne and Aviendha a wrong dress.

That has to be Elayne on the left. - 06/05/2010 08:46:26 PM 1174 Views
Yeah,I think you're right.The red hair confused me (though Aviendha also doesn't have red hair) *NM* - 06/05/2010 08:49:25 PM 919 Views
Where does it say that, cause she does. Or at least "reddish" (source:encyclopedia wot and me) *NM* - 06/05/2010 09:03:53 PM 582 Views
Really? I thought Aviendha is blond. *NM* - 06/05/2010 09:09:17 PM 454 Views
Encyclopedia wot also describes Elayne as having a "mass of sunburst curls" - 06/05/2010 09:58:55 PM 1441 Views
Yet Aviendha is described as having "dark red hair", which clinches her as the woman on the left *NM* - 06/05/2010 10:35:38 PM 576 Views
Not for me. - 07/05/2010 03:10:44 AM 1259 Views
Really?! The woman in the middle has the "sunhair" IMO. *NM* - 21/05/2010 06:10:58 AM 455 Views
Sareitha is from Krypton, where the sun is red. Hence her confusion. *NM* - 22/05/2010 06:39:49 PM 497 Views

Yes, the dress of the woman on the left fits Elayne's in PoD, ch.1 - 06/05/2010 10:14:07 PM 1182 Views

What about the hair though? - 06/05/2010 10:32:42 PM 1123 Views

I think it may just be artist error, but the hair color for the left woman is too dark to be Elayne. - 06/05/2010 10:37:12 PM 970 Views
Instead of dress I think she got hair color wrong - 06/05/2010 11:00:41 PM 958 Views
