Gucci gives Enora the shoes she deserves.
(Gucci Fall 2015 Ready to wear)
Hate the flowers and washed out blue. Love the glasses, suitable for a researcher-daughter-of-two-researchers.
Please Paizo, Move up the release date of Hell’s Rebels. Gareth Pugh needs rescuing.
You may remember my theory that based on his Spring 2015 collection, the Hell’s Rebels AP was going to center around rescuing Gareth Pugh from the Chelaxians.
Well, he just released his Fall 2015 collection, and it looks like he’s still trapped in Cheliax, working for House Thrune.
He has shown in the past that he can dress a wider variety of Golarian inhabitants.
He can dress the Kellid and The Technic League
He must be returned to wider Golarion!
Does anyone still watch Project Runway? I still do. It’s on episode 7, which means that almost everything that gets sent down the runway isn’t complete crap. Mostly. Better sites than this (TLo, for example) will break them down fashion wise. I’m just going to assign them to an iconic.
Alex
Shardra (When I see a rock dress, I think ‘Dwarf’.)
Amanda
(I wish Pathfinder had a Time Thief iconic. This is a replay of what Amanda did on episode 3.)
Char
Seelah, I guess (All that white makes me think ‘Paladin’. Hopefully she’s about to smite that peplum. Yep, grasping at straws for this one)
Emily
Seoni (red, flowey, plunging neckline)
Fade
Sajan (It’s kind of inverted, but the grey and white with the crisscross over the chest remind me of his ‘shirt’)
Kini
Alahazra (white and flowey and the underpinnings don’t really make sense)
Korina
Imrijka (she has an awesome red coat and comes from Ustalav)
Sandhya
Damiel (That print looks like a well used alchemist smock)
Samantha
Ezren (It can case sleep twice a day at level 1. It’s also kinda the same colour as his robes)
Sean
Enora (Not just ’cause I like her best. The colour is right, and that band across the bust line dips down, like an hood, an anemic hood, but a hood)
Thank you Paizo! For lobbing a nice, slow pitch right over home plate. The new iconic is a caster, wearing the classic hooded robe (so much easier to dress than those peskie heave armor wearers): Enora, a Halfling Arcanist (Wizard/Sorcerer hybrid). Because of this, you are forgiven for not announcing an ‘Evil Queens of Golarion’ paper doll book at the Paizocon Banquet last night. *sigh* There’s always next year.
There is a real shortage of hooded capes on the runways, something that clearly needs to be rectified. The few that existed were riffs on classic looks from Azzedine AlaÏa, so there’s no reason not to use one of his looks for Enora’s literal interpretation:
Grace Jones in Azzedine Alaia
The hood is great, but the rest of the look doesn’t really scream “until recently, library-only based researcher”. (It’s a black catsuit, for the curious). Also, Grace Jones would make a awesome “Evil Queen of Numeria”. But I think I’ve already crowned about five.
Luckily for Enora, the absence of hoods is made up for with an abundance of capes. She could rock any of these three dresses:
(Alexis Mabille, Ready to Wear, Spring 2014. — Love the scarf in her hair, she looks like she just put it up with what ever was at hand, because it was distracting her from her books.
Zang Toi. Ready to Wear, Spring 2014. — Beautiful and dramatic, even if it skews a bit Ustalav.
Valentino, Fall 2012 Couture Collection — You can always count of Valentino for dramatic, elegant looks; and recently, often with capes)
Juanjo Oliva Spring 2012
This captures Enora’s essence as a magical researcher. (Sadly, without a cape, which is the next best thing to a hood) The belt and covered buttons take it sort of Librarian, and the length and flowiness (yep. real word.) take it Magician. Juanjo Oliva, Spring 2012.
