Fashion of the Great Houses of Westeros: House Tully of Riverrun
#asoiafedit#asongoficeandfireedit#valyrianscrolls#valyriansource#tullyedit#housetullyedit#asoiaf#a song of ice and fire#house tully#ghf*#mine*#this is actually the first house i visualised in a fashion sense way back when#i watched claire mccarthy's ophelia in 2020 and saw all the gorgeous flowy gowns and daisy ridley's red wig and just went 'tully!!!'#I know the Riverlands are very rich and populous due to their centralisation but in my mind#they’re also a little behind culturally due to the constant battles and invasions#so the style of their fashion is a little less structured and complex than what you’d find in the westerlands or the vale or the stormlands#and also the cut of the outfits is reminiscent of what you’d find in both the iron islands and the north which echoes the impact#both kingdoms have had on the region#that doesn’t mean they skimp on fabric or aesthetic though!!#there's lots of flowy silks and shiny fabrics that evok running water#women wear their hair either loose or in intricate braids held with metal rings (a holdover from the three centuries of durrandon reign)#also THEE beetle wing lady macbeth dress is here in spirit!!!#500*

the haladyans probably wore some sort of armour, right? & knowing shit about them is like, an 'intellectual' thing. & we see modern perceptions of them ('men in skirts'). do u think the reason no one wears armour in skuldenore is because protecting yourself is seen as effeminate & therefore undesirable. no froi you can't wear chainmail if u want to be accepted by your peers. real men either dodge or let their opponent's blade tear through them like a hot knife through butter
#when finnikin was 14 training with the osterian guard he showed up one day with plans for a helmet & they all called him slurs so he#overcorrected HARD#id say something stupid about isaboe and lumatere and homophobia here but the goodreads reviewers would get me so you'll#have to imagine it yourself. make it really insightful#like. a lot of the standards of masculinity upheld in skuldenore seem almost entirely derived from our current sitch. the impact of just#skipping the entirety of like‚ 500-1500 years (my history is not good) of fashion to go straight to pseudo-medieval fashion as seen in#popular culture today was uh. bad for them armour-wise i think#i don't know. i've been thinking about this for a while but i don't think i got out everything i wanted here. oh well!

can’t stop intellectualizing about barbie
#maybe ill post a rant later#tales from diana#it's funny. i've written a lot in my private diaries and notebooks about how much i love dolls and have always loved dolls#and what an impact they've had on me personally and wider popular culture#and why i view them as both products and art#etc etc etc#but i dont really try and convince others of those points even on this personal blog where ill rant about truly ANYTHING stupid i want#its not like im worried about anyone judging or tearing apart my opinions (my followers first of all would never)#(i dont think tumblr generally would either. maybe some pockets of tumblr but theyd have to find it somehow)#i guess for me its just a very introspective topic first of all bc it goes back to my early childhood and covers basically all of my life#and i dont assume the history of my life is something that interests most people very much#like most ppl dont really wanna hear about how many similarities i find between playing w dolls and writing poems#(altho ive written and posted poems on that topic before!)#it would be interesting specifically to ppl who know me well. which is probably why ive also talked about this a lot w my sister#kaily and i would literally play games of dolls that would last entire days for like several days in a row#playing w dolls was my FAVORITE thing in the world hands down as a kid. and it did so much good for me#but also barbie and other fashion dolls are so culturally and historically significant and impactful in many underappreciated ways#justice to all doll lovers. xoxoxox

I've always been living pretty comfortably in life, to the point where I'm in a soul-sucking job, but still have a lifetime of financial stability to fall back onto.
I've grown up in one of the wealthiest ZIP codes in the US, and was sung the praises of venture capitalism, micro-financing, and angel investment in high achool, because most of my peers came from money and could actively do those things. I've been taught all my life about Capitalism being an engine for great good!
Four years ago, I was still barely believing that, because I'm autistic as heck, and not only have a enough shreds of empathy to make a crazy quilt, but also was watching private equity and venture capitalist-funded startups wreck entire business or absolutely get wrecked themselves.
I don't mean to longpost, but I've grown to radically lean way more socialist, over the years. SO MUCH of today's problems, with stratification, the wealth divide, the scourge of environmental destruction, the brokenness of healthcare... In the US, that can be linked pretty much entirely back to the capitalistic need to profit, in whatever way possible.
And the profit isn't for the little guys at the firms, or working at the company that just got bought up, nor is it being made by "small business owners with big dreams but not enough capital for the banks"... It's bled into the pockets of investors and owners of these forms, and so it goes. You're sooner to be fired or go bankrupt and into debt than to get any real help. It's disgusting.
I don't know where I'm going with this anymore, but we need a universal basic income, we need universal healthcare for all, we need to freaking eat the rich.
The only "equity" I want in my vocabulary is "social equity"!

#also there are so many people screwed over by the American capitalist hellscape#disabled folks who either need a job or cannot get a job DESERVE TO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A JOB TO LIVE#we need doctors and healthcare to take marginalized people like Black and Brown folks SERIOUSLY#I am so sick of fast fashion and its culture of consumerism and horrendous environmental impact#i am sick of “energy companies” claiming we have personal carbon footprints when THEY are the ones doing the worst damage#i have all the optimism of my childhood almost entirely drained#but i still hope#just with a side of anger#there is no ethical consumption under capitalism#and there has got to be a better way#text#whoops#longpost#also in high school my English class had an entire module about the American Dream#i basically walked away from that believing the American Dream to be increasingly unattainable and very dead

sorry, im just kind of stuck on this but it's kind of crazy to see, in a discussion about colonialism and cultural appropriation vs appreciation in fashion, the like diversity or distinction between different cultures in europe loosely referred to as like "potato europe" and "cherry tomato europe". like girl i totally get what you mean but neither of those vegetables are even from europe 😭. i know im off track and i get what you're saying, but we're talking about colonialism and i can't ignore that vegetables that are indigenous to the americas are seen as hallmarks of the cuisines of certain areas of europe!!!
like maybe this subject area is too much of a special interest for me, but it's always so crazy to me how little like foods indigenous to the americas and brought to the "old world" through colonialism and the columbian exchange are acknowledged for being indigenous to the americas in favour of being seen instead as hallmark ingredients to european cuisines.
#frankie yells#i feel like idk im minimizing my frustration abt this or something#but also in the context of where the thing that got me stuck on this was said im like uh maybe not the place to say anything given that i am#getting caught on a semantic detail in a throwaway sentence in a larger important discussion about fashion literacy and cultural#appropriation vs appreciation and colonialism etc etc#but also the way colonialism and the impact of colonialism are so normalized in our world drive me fucking crazy#so.

I want, like, an over-the-top, going-to-feel-outdated-in-five-years-but-will-contain-kernels-of-startling-relevance novel about, like. A data broker.
#ive read this book from 2004 called so yesterday that's about like. trend cycles and advertising. and that sounds like it sucks#but its one of my favorite books and its genuinely such a fun read#theres a lot in it thats silly and unserious (and v fun) but it takes the culture of the time very seriously. i dont have the vantage point#to really determine any sort of truthfulness about the portrayal. but taking it at face value? theres a lot of respect and fascination and#appreciation. for trends and how they impact advertising. and vice versa. and what exists outside of that.#and it was fun to read that having had next to no interest in the subject.#anyway i want that but instead of selling stolen fashion ideas to brands make it like modern data brokering. brokeredge?
