#idk i just watched the 22 hour long glidus alt shift x video on jon snow in got that made me realize just how fucked it was in that show

[from-ib-to-asshai]

actually genuinely sad about how both awoiaf shows we have both dont choose to do interesting bold things with their fashion (GOT a lot more than HOTD, but still). they both seem so focused on being serious HBO television that they seem afraid of having any whimsical aspects to their costuming, or little effort to create and diversify the fashion shown. Like what are the differences between fashion in different regions of Westeros? How does the fashion develop over the years? It often feels toned down, and in HOTD's case like they are too afraid of retconning anything GOT established or didn't establish to properly build something to make this world feel fuller and less monotone. It's like they are afraid of getting too creative just in case someone might remember that they are watching a fantasy show, as if being a fantasy show is something it should be embarrassed about
