Her bride dress is an orange short sleeve dress, with a triangle mark at the chest. She wears a purple vale. The dress also has a pale purple collar that covers her neck.

Personality

Not much is known about Matlin, but what is known was her passion and love for music, a passion that was passed down onto Musa, her daughter. She was the happiest when she sung. Matlin appeared to be a loving mother and wife, as seen in a flashback the devastation her family experienced when she passed. It was enough to turn Ho-Boe's love for music into fear and anger.

Matlin is proud to see what Musa had become.

Pre-Series

Ho-Boe wanted her to sing a song he wrote and she agreed to do so. The two fell in love, got married and had Musa. The two would continue to perform together but when Musa was a child, Matlin fell gravely ill and passed away. Her death left a major impact on her family: Ho-Boe gave up on his music career in grief and Musa grew up without her mother.

Series

Seasons

~Musa's Mommy~ — Matlin as a holographic projection.

Matlin first appears in "A Friendship Sundered" as a holographic picture which Musa often looks at.

She is seen in "The Show Must Go On!," when she is mentioned by Musa to Aisha. Later on in the episode Musa visits her mother's grave with her father Ho-Boe.

When Musa is chosen to find her way through the Crystal Labyrinth, she reaches the last two doors: there is the Exit, but there is also a door to someone Musa loves more than anything else in the world, her mother. After hesitating, she chooses to get the Water Stars and before entering the other door Matlin tells her that she is very proud of Musa.

Matlin appears in Musa's flashbacks, when the Winx visited Melody to find the Ruby Reef. She also appeared in a flashback in "The Singing Whales." Musa stated to her father, that she would have wanted to wish her mother back into life with her Sirenix Wish, but knew that it would have been the wrong thing to do. It is heavily implied that Musa would have not wished for anything more than to use her Sirenix wish to bring her mother back. Also, it is worth noting that Musa was the only fairy of the Winx Club who did not achieve her wish.
