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:

The "Peacock Dance" is the most famous Dai dance:

"You live in pain. Do you feel as though you need to alert me every time your knee twinges or your joints slip?"

"There have been several moments, even here, when your heartbeat has elevated and you have approached unconsciousness, yet you have not made special note."

"That's just everyday life for me. This isn't normal for you."

Kusuo can't sleep if he has any limbs outside his blankets (he's scared because Kusuke once tried to cut off his leg while he was sleeping)

so whenever he's in a sleepover you'll see him covered from his feet up to his neck no matter the temperature

one day at a sleepover while ku was asleep one of his friends like idk toritsuka takes out the blanket just to annoy him as a joke and ends up on the other side of the room cuz of the kick that a half asleep kusuo in a really bad mood and w an empty stomach gave him

Why do we have such fewer "Halloween Core" movies? When I say Halloween movies I don't mean every other scary movie out there. No! I'm talking about a movie that shows Halloween being celebrated. Streets and houses with spooky decorations. Kids running for trick-or-treats. Some friend gang trying to bust into a haunted house on the night of Halloween. Show me this!

Show me a movie where the frames have a bunch of jack-o-lanterns every 5 seconds.

Show me people dressed up as anything and everything - Batman, Pac-Man, werewolf, anything.

Anything but some cheap slasher thriller that has 90% of the movie shot in the dark.

I'm not saying we don't have Halloween core movies at all, but not as many as they should be.

There needs to be more!

I mean look at Christmas movies.

Any random movie cannot be termed as a Christmas movie. Christmas movies are where Christmas is celebrated. There's drama, there's a feel-good vibe, there's romance, there's snow and pretty lights and Santa's and Christmas trees and families and kids- that's the whole vibe of a Christmas movie. And we have so many of them(too many to be honest).

A simple romcom cannot be termed as a Christmas movie. The same way a simple horror movie cannot be a Halloween movie. No. Give me Halloween core. More of it. Please!!
