Outfit description: Only someone very wealthy could have purchased this outfit, and only someone with a lot of time (or fast hands) could have made it. There is a simple green tunic made of silk beneath a white leather vest whose buttons are molded to look like silvery maple leaves, with thorny vines embroidered beneath them. The golden leather pants are made as tight as possible. So tight that it might be considered by some to be a little indecent. In the same off-white color of the vest, there are fingerless gloves and suede boots, both of which have the silver-maple-leaf embroidery.

The outfit also includes a large, warm cotton greatcoat. It's darker green at the bottom but as it travels up it turns to a bright golden color. The collar looks again like a leaf, and fading slightly into the hood. All along the coat is very extensive embroidery in the shape of a creeping vine, ending in what looks like a yarrow epaulette at the shoulders. This is done in golden thread.

The last piece of the outfit is a sort of tiara, rendered in pure gold, and set with three emeralds.

Roled is the freaking handsomest peacock on the lane!! So lucky that the Tailor is such a magician and has 6 claws on each hand.... and foot! She's sewing with all fours. THANK YOU!!!!       

The Dermorian goes off singing along with your totally appropriate comment....

Outfit description: A red blouse is set against a pair of black pants. The sleeves of the blouse balloon slightly from the shoulders on down to the wrists, where they taper off to hug close and not restrict the hands. It has a boat neck line, and as it is low-hanging there is sheer fabric to make it appealing without being immodest. The pants are made of leather, the blouse of silk.

Included in the outfit, made of the same leather as the pants, is a small corset. It has some geometrical embroidering and is the same blackish color. There is also embroidery on the silken blouse to cleverly make it look like the corset fades into the shirt.

In addition, the outfit includes a leather belt, dyed a golden color. It has many hooks in it for the hanging of pouches. A small bag with a chain that can easily be attached to the hooks is included and it, too, is gold-dyed leather. The bag has small etches on it that resemble trees.

Outfit description: This is a simple and functional outfit. There is a short sleeved tunic with a collar made to look like it's layered around the V-neck, dark blue, with a geometrical pattern embroidered into it. The pants are a light grey, as is the undershirt, which is long sleeved. There is also an expansive, midnight blue cloak that falls over both shoulders, held around them by a silver chain.

[Caraick]

Awesome job, Mari. That looks great.

Well, not for Caraick's outfit thankfully.

Outfit description: This is a very fine grey coat. The exterior is made up of grey trepor's hide, and the interior is smooth and supple dark grey silk. There is extensive embroidery on the lower half of the jacket's main body in greys and purples, as well as on the ends of the sleeves. A clasp holds the high-backed collar together, and small rectangular buttons dot to the space just above the embroidery. The buttons and clasp are made of carved and smoothed ulbernaut bone.

Intended wearer: Weeds

Outfit description: The theme of this ensemble clear rests in nature and green, growing things. The tunic is long and has a small half-train in the back that ends at the knees, permitting fashion without limiting motion. The hood of the tunic is made to hook to the elaborately carved mask, which is made of sturdy layers of leather woven again and again together and dyed an array of green colors. The leather trousers, beaten to a supple state, are also a deep, almost blackish green.

The sleeves bell outwards but end at the elbows. To compensate, light green gloves are included, a color that matches the boots, so that no inch of skin is exposed. Within the bell of the sleeves are small loops in which a stiletto dagger might be artfully concealed for a time, or perhaps a vial. Unlike the mask and leggings, the tunic is made of sturdy cotton, and embroidered in a way that abstractly denotes foliage.

[Roled]

Green grow the rushes oh!

Weeds looks so... fecund.
This is great looking Mari, you totally rock!

Outfit description:

This dress is made to cut off on one side at the knee, the other asymmetrically around mid-thigh, with a shredded, tattered theme along the bottom. Matching the theme, the neckline bares one shoulder and covers the other. It's primarily a rich, royal purple color. It's also cut to be rather revealing, with golden chords barely seeing to hold this cut in place. The golden theme continues along the waist, where a simple yet elegant design has been embroidered. The dress is short-sleeved.

[Siteya]

Oh Yen, she is gonna be so saucy! I love that it has an off shoulder and that the skirt is angled, nice design!  ;P

Outfit Description:

This evening gown is classy enough to make no remark upon the wearer, but cut in a way to exaggerate their femininity all the same. It bares the shoulders and the collarbones, coming up to soft points at the ends, and has a slit in the back that narrows down at the waist in behind to a point. There are three layers that bleed into one another: light blue, light green, and then a pearly off-white. Indeed, pearls have been strung across the waist and around the shoulders, attached the the fabric so they gleam when it moves. All of it is made of soft, silky satin, though the waist and beneath the chest have been fortified by sturdier material as a pseudo-built in bust. Green embroidery draws attention to the area while drawing it away from the presence of the bust.

The shoes that go with the ensemble were obviously made for it, having the same color coordination as the dress. They, too, have pearls embroidered upon them, and are high-heeled to give the wearer more by way of height.
