I wanted to showcase Wilan's new main glam for Dawntrail and onward.
As soon as I saw this coat on him I knew it was perfect for him, for his style and for where he is mentally at the end of 7.0.
Yeah, ultimately it's a red coat. Another red coat, like he used to wear for years as the Warrior of Light, like the one he resolved to never wear again as his role as Hydaelyn's Champion was over. A red coat that he only donned when the world was in danger once again.
But whereas his old, sharlayan style coat was formal, tight, with a necktie around his neck and a form-fitting cut, this coat is comfortable, breezy, and casually eye-catching.
In other words, when the Star was once again in danger Wilan was quick to reclaim his role as its savior, but this time on his own terms, and with a healthier and less self-destructive attitude.
And as an aside, I love that it lets me showcase how he's been wearing a necklace fashioned out of a shard of Hydaelyn's Mothercrystal ever since the events of Endwalker.
Thanks for reading! ✨
Extra shots under the cut!
And just for fun, a side-by-side comparison between Wilan's old and new coat. I tried to respect the basic design principles of his classic outfit, from the palette to the overall silhouette down to the red soles of his footwear, so that both designs would clearly read as "Wilan", but the difference in presentation is, in my opinion, outstanding.

Happy 10th Aniversary! 💖
Two years and four days ago my husband and I came to FF14. I fell in love with game from the first minute and since then, every day I love it more and more. This is very unusual feelings for me. I have been playing different mmos since 2005 and there always was disappointment. Favorite class nerfed into the ground, story turned upside down, balance brought to the point of absurdity etc. And finally, after a long wandering, I found my happy place and mmo from my dreams. I really regret that I didn't start playing earlier.
Happy 10th Anniversary and long life, dear Final Fantasy XIV!💖🥂
For me it was 2 years of happiness. And like everyone else, I hope for another 10 years. May this journey become truly unending!
This is our very first screen in first day (I found gpose) 😄 So, then and now 😊
