brocean outfits analysis

i quite like the differences between edward and adéwalé's clothing styles, like theyre both the carribbean pirate assassins but they actually have personalities like the frye twins' outfits, so im gonna ramble about them, feel free to keep scrolling.

the first outfits we see them in (not comparing their true og outfits because uh??? edward's corset vs adé's still a slave in chains and lowrise pants???), edward just has a mostly open leather vest to match his boots and some off-white pants held up by a red plaid sash, with a bandana around his forehead, which is a really minimalist look and likely quite comfy when he isnt drenched in sweat and sea water, like the athleisure of the time. adé has a decorated green/gold vest with a very low cut shirt underneath. he still has the red sash and a bandana but his pants are striped and purple (colorblocking and pattern mixing KING), his boots are much shorter, and he's wearing much more jewelry (his rings, earrings, bracelets, and golden necklace [i think it may be a locket] vs edward's collection of teeth). adé also has far more belts than edward in this look, and has a much more wealthy appearance, even seen in their red sashes theres a difference in the cost, edward's faded stripes far less outstanding than adé's richer red color and more complicated pattern, which appears more classy (his pattern really resembles those on evie, aveline, and elise's dresses):

edward altered his blue assassin's cloak by adding more leather armor to it, a far less minimalist outfit than his first, but adéwalé altered his black cloak by taking off the sleeves and letting his titties breathe, it's like he said "no, thanks, i will take the sexy armor." they both don't have bandanas in their assassin outfits unlike their pirate looks, and they have the same tail shape to their cloaks (despite walpole's cloak not having that shape?). neither of them conceal their weapons in this outfit, contrary to many of the other assassins, instead putting them on display, though adéwalé's cloak seems far less heavy and he likely makes less noise than edward's clunky weapons everywhere, so he doesnt need as much armor because he is less likely to get caught, not to mention it is much easier on the eyes than edward's pirate hobo robes.

lastly, their stripper alter egos diving pants. edward changes his hairstyle to a bun when he is swimming since his hair is less likely to come loose like that than when its a pony tail, something adé doesnt need to worry about lmao. but, for some sexy reason, edward has high waisted pants that are very tight, like if you can't tell how big his dick is at this point? play the game with your eyes open maybe. adéwalé though went for a less flashy outfit, in great contrast to his first look, just with lowrise pants that are not tight at all, hence why he has to tie the leg holes down when swimming and edward doesnt:

regardless, i think adé has a better fashion sense than edward and he may very well be one of the top best dressed assassins with edward being somewhere in the middle, which really fits the differences in their personalities, as edward is a messy and brash guy while adéwalé is scholarly and speaks eloquently (and three languages fluently but who's counting), a trend you can see continued with the twins.

anywho, i fully support bastienne spending most of freedom cry trying to fuck adé, he really does look like he has his shit together, especially next to edward.
