skygiants: Princess Tutu, facing darkness with a green light in the distance (gloves on)
[personal profile] skygiants
Despite a broad field and some VERY stiff and possibly out-of-this-world competition, last week's costume polls were cleared by our heroine's elegant golden gown:



Which I'm glad to have the opportunity to repost, because the last episode I watched included a flashback to this scene which reminded me that I completely forgot about an extremely important element of her outfit here!



An extremely key element and I'm so sorry I failed you all and compromised the integrity of these polls by neglecting to include it, but I can only assume that the knowledge would have caused this outfit to garner more votes ... right? I can imagine no other outcome.

Anyway! This episode features shockingly few new Jang Man Wol outfits; she seems to be a little tired and off her game today.


1.



... as you can see from this first outfit. I mean, it's a beautiful outfit for what it is! Peak lounge gown, hashtag goals, etc.



I enjoy a.) the embroidery on the sleep mask b.) the fact that we can see clearly from the smudging of her lipstick that she definitely went to sleep in full makeup the night before and it didn't somehow last perfectly all through the night -- rare detail work from a kdrama and one that I genuinely appreciate.

2.



It's not an episode of Hotel Del Luna without at least one black widow look - in this case, a hip, mod, fast & furious black widow look!



Like, is it as great as the red coat from last episode? IMO no, but that red coat would also probably have been a little much when paired with the mid-immortal-life-crisis red car, and this little black dress serves the style function perfectly well.

3.


There was a minute or two where I thought this skirt/top combo was actually incredibly flowy pants and honestly I think that would have been more striking, but it's still a nice outfit that looks both elegant, comfortable, and appropriately gothic for our heroine's aesthetic.





Again, not the most exciting thing she's ever worn, but it's well accessorized - I love the choker-pendant combo -- and looks appropriately dramatic set against a mystical tree in the fog; not bad at all for something you throw together on an episode that started with you asleep in last night's makeup.

I can't believe that you forgot the mention the leopard skin tights with the golden gown!! Truly a detail that takes the outfit beyond excellent to "even more out of this world than the literal space suit."

Yess the leopard tights! I also feel like it's important to mention that not only is she matching her outfit to a picture frame, she's also matching it to a ghost tiger.

I'm voting for flowy peach because I want that choker and I genuinely think I can make it. Got any close-ups?

Yeah, that looks like a pretty basic pattern. I need to finish a commission first and then I'll see what I can do. Thank you!

Is there more of a story to the tights? (I ask because they are basically the tights my mom wore under her wedding dress. On a dare.)

Contrary to what this and the astronaut outfit might suggest, there is in fact a coherent plot to this drama XD.

Despite the relative dearth of outfits I was still torn between naptime and fast and furious widow! I went with naptime because Mood, but I would've voted for both if I could've. (I am DELIGHTED about the leopard print on the golden gown, ftr.)

Naptime is such a mood, I have to respect it.

Yeah, I think if I'd known about the tights, they would have swayed me from that fabulous red coat. That's just next-level accessorizing.

I love high waisted, flowy, wide legged pants à la Agent Carter. The peach would have definitely been less bland if they were pants... But I do like the lovely dressing gown. :-)
