[ID:
Photo of a long, glittering champagne-gold gown on a shiny black mannequin, touching the floor in front with a small train pooling in the ground behind it. The dress is gathered at the waist with a gold chevron-shaped sequin belt built into the dress, the neckline plunging down to a few inches above the waist. The fabric falls almost straight down from the waist, creating a slim profile, creating rippling drapes as the fabric widens but the weight pulls it down straight.
The sleeves are cape-like, draped short in front and down past the waist on the back, covered in brighter gold sequins.
There is a dramatic gold necklace that seems attached to the dress: a long fringe of gold chains hangs from a high collar of gold, cinched in just above the bust with a thin gold ribbon attached to either side of the neckline, the ends of the fringe spraying out below the intersection.

Dress from the Art Deco era.

still thinking about the brainrot that fast fashion has caused in people, like i made this pair of pants that are black and white with a cool flowery design, and an acquaintance saw them and said "wow i'd pay like 20 dollars for you to make me a pair" and i could barely think with how utterly horrified i was at that; i told them that 20 dollars wouldn't even cover the materials, let alone the hours of work that went into cutting, sewing, ironing, hemming, altering, etc. they just had this look on their face when i told them that, when i said i wouldn't make them a pair for even 100 dollars because that was still way too low of an amount, a look that said "you're crazy for thinking that those cost 100 dollars" and maybe i am crazy but holy shit, 20 dollars for a pair of handmade, durable, lined pants fitted specifically to your measurements? 20 dollars for upwards of 60 hours of work? 20 dollars for several yards of high-quality fabric, thread, and buttons? 20 dollars???
#i mean even fast fashion companies charge more than 20 dollars for their shitty sweatshop jeans with exposed seams and standardised sizes#but in this world my acquaintance thought it was appropriate to tell me that my skill and supplies and labour was worth 20 dollars at most#20 dollars is all i'm worth because apparently that is all that my skill and labour and time is worth#like i can't even begin to describe how blindly angry i was at my friend and at the world that made them say that#anyway

part 2 of my pining falin agenda aka I STAND WITH MARCILLE THAT DRESS WAS CUNT
part 1
(ID in alt text)
#dungeon meshi#falin touden#marcille donato#farcille#dungeon meshi spoilers#doodles#mine#in my to-do list that second image is described as 'visions of marcille tarted up dark magician style dancing in falin's mind'#making laios call the dungeon lord dress weird in part one is just compliance to canon characterization HE DOES NOT SPEAK FOR ME#i looove fashion and fashion as characterization so my headcanon is that marcille's epilogue style is a direct consequence of that dress#she realized that there was no escaping the resemblance to her mother bc it is now a proven fact that black brings out her cuntiferocity#also falin is wearing a chemise de la reine bc 1) plumage real estate 2) similar to her canon dresses and 3) booba

Ladies of the Ring 💍✨
#phew the lineup is finished at long last!!!#i wanted to try my hand at drawing lotr’s significant female characters close to how tolkien described them#or may have described them if he had bothered to give them more page time (*cough* lothíriel *COUGH*)#arwen’s simple silver dress in fellowship really enchanted me and i also gave her a pair of medievalesque braids#eowyn is the closest to her movie counterpart - with the exception of her hair not being loose and flowing#galadriel has deeper gold hair than PJ or Amazon’s to reflect her vanyarin heritage and match her with the mallorn leaves of lorien#goldberry is plus sized because MTG’s version ingrained itself permanently into my mind since she’s so beautiful#shelob is here in her human incarnation just for giggles and to please the lovely lady villain lovers in the crowd#i based lothiriel’s dress off of one of morgana’s in bbc merlin and her appearance on my HCs for boromir and faramir since they’re cousins#ioreth and lobelia were a challenge for me to experiment with fashions appropriate for ‘older’ women in their respective cultures#rosie is firmly established as a redhead in pink in my mind - she’s youthful feminine and loveable#lord of the rings#lotr#arwen#eowyn#galadriel#goldberry#shelob#lothiriel#ioreth#lobelia#rosie cotton#art#fanart#my art#merilles#btw i still like my previous designs for these characters i just wanted to try something different/more canonically accurate :)

Cultural Fashion: Katara's Fire Nation Outfit
Was looking at some of my old posts and wanted to re-do a few of them, now that I'm 4 years older wiser.
Katara's Fire Nation outfit is inspired by the outfits worn during traditional Dai folk dance performances. These outfits are typically comprised of form-fitting tops that show off the midriff paired with flowing skirts or pants that emphasizes the elegant movements of the dancer. The necklace and other accessories that Katara wears are also reminiscent of the costume jewelry worn for these performances.
The Dai minority group refers to several Tai-speaking ethnic groups in southern China (Yunnan province) that are closely related to Lao and Thai people, both linguistically and culturally. They're a great inspiration for Fire Nation fashion. Fittingly, Katara debuts this outfit in the show's dancing-focused episode. Below are some examples of the elegance of Dai dance:
youtube
The "Peacock Dance" is the most famous Dai dance:

#avatar#atla#avatar the last airbender#fire nation#cultural fashion#mood music#looking back at my original post on Katara's top#I realized that I really didn't do justice in describing the Dai people#or giving context to Katara's clothing#Katara's outfit is definitely not everyday Dai clothing#Hopefully this new post is more informative#Youtube

Ah, Lestrade. I've always had a bit of a soft spot for him, and it only got bigger with the recent reread.
#his bitchfests with holmes are just always so entertaining lol#sherlock holmes#lestrade#got a couple requests to see lestrade's office so i went back and cleaned up my sketch a little bit#not totally happy with it since it didn't end up looking as cramped as i really envision it#i mean hes a neat guy so i imagine he takes care of his space its just that (in my mind) hes dealing with an awkward layout and no budget#also he gets a nice fashion forward cut to his suits bc watson so consistently describes him as dapper#which is just about the only nice descriptor watson throws his way lol

Wouldn't lizard fashion be something like spikes and scales and a frilled lizard collar?
Like so?
(Bonus art under the cut)
#thank you anon I've been wanting to draw proper lizard fashion for a while and this gave me the motivation I needed#dracula daily#re: dracula#dracula#lizard fashion#The colours I chose here make Drac look like Harry Du Bois - which is appropriate given how I tend to depict his personality in my shitpost#bonus under the cut featuring Dracula's Weed Smorking Girlfriends#personally I really like the theory that the three vampire women are actually dracula's wife and two daughters#since the book never actually calls them his wives and the two subordinate girls are specifically described as looking similar to him#the idea that he turned his family but is no longer capable of loving them (or being loved by them) adds a whole extra layer for me#because he still goes through the motions - goes out to get them food (babies) and provide for them/fulfil the role of a patriarch#but its hollow and loveless and done out of strange obligation/habit - like an echo of being alive#BUT for the sake of comedy I will always draw them as his three weed smorking girlfriends because it's just funnier#or rather as I like to think of them - his three weed smoking EX-girlfriends who spend all day making fun of him and and freeloading#I'm going to tag any art with them in it from here on out as#the ex-wives of dracula#he's going to england to escape their ridicule

YOU DON’T HAVE TO CHOOSE
Reject the binary! You don’t fit into a box and you don’t have to try. As a nonbinary person and artist myself, it means a lot to me to celebrate that I’m neither a man nor a woman. Did a friend have to remind me to make a nonbinary print to accompany my other trans prints? Yes! Does that make it any less cool? No! Shout-out to all of my peers in ambiguity, and especially to Mx. Nyx, THE Stevie Nicks of Colorado and very cool nonbinary person for reminding me we are worth celebrating.

WINTER BREAK
much like marriage matches, the stakes are pretty high for getting into the cardinalate. you might be a little on edge if the brother that's been earmarked for the role isn't really jazzed about the whole thing, in addition to trying to convince the pope that it's in his best interest to let this happen.
A Renaissance Court: Milan Under Galeazzo Maria Sforza, Gregory Lubkin
eventually I'm going to get the whole cast of sforza siblings drawn. there's just. a lot of them.
#in true oldest sibling/head of the house fashion galeazzo will continue to bring up ascanio's early clerical life up until he dies lmao#anyway ascanio's got a weird thing going on with fathers. there's that portrait story and also whatever the fuck was up with#ludovico like i get that it was probably his way of going heyyyyy! look at me! i'm just a little guy! i'm not a threat! but it's also very#veryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy. something#italian renaissance tag#komiks tag#lmao i finally decided to bite the bullet and make a whole separate blog for a future sforza comic like at this point im locked in and#committed to the sforzas.#MOVING BACK TO ASCANIO it's kind of. uh. sometimes i'll read a chapter of the biography and it'll describe something that's#very obviously a major depressive episode and i'm like. man. look at that. you gave a perfectly good would be dynast a major#depression disorder. imagine the problems he would've caused if they had anti depressants back then
