[the post for antony]
#like YEAH i know that the reason for the clothing choice is like. emphasis on class and etc. BUT CONSIDER THIS ALSO#i have an equivalent one for antony along with a thing about antony and caligula and the East#and another thing entirely about vorenus supposedly representing the Roman Ideal except for the part where he's punished#repeatedly by the narrative for it time and time again#and how it's v interesting how he's set next to Antony in s2 regarding: who gets to be the idealized roman#it is never ever vorenus no matter how strictly and devoutly he follows#and worships rome as an ideal as something to follow as something to fashion ones self out of#rome the republic doesn't love vorenus back. rome the republic dies with antony#etc etc etc#anyway#my sister (costume design and fashion major) + me (someone who uh. reads things) = whatever the fuck this is#gabriel fucks around with hbo rome
