    I especially appreciate that they actually match the jet black dye, as so many undyeable pieces don't match any of our available dyes and are therefore impossible to match...
    I actually solo farmed the 1st boss of the Vault to get those boots yesterday. It took me 40 minutes to get those boots to drop. Pretty easy to get now. Just patience.

    The Vest itself looks cool. I went to check it out once I saw a dude wearing it then realized how hideous the neck ruffles are. Why ruin such a great top with those ruffles.

    Oh, absolutely. I only called it lucky because I wasn't even looking for them, just opened my inv and they were my 51-59 dungeon freebie. Thank you, glamour fairy godmother!

    Another glamour idea I had (but I think it needs a cuter character than I have available, plus seasonal gear) is that I think the shirt would match well with the Valentione's feathered cap? And maybe the Valentione's pants with the striped socks.

    It annoys me that if a robe is oiginally lighter and has dark details into it, the dark parts turns into grey if u dye it pure white while jet black covers all and tunrs that detailed part bit darker.
    They seem to do that a lot with gear. I'm not sure why. Must be something to do with how it's programmed to handle multiple colours within a dyeable item.

    The upside for the dye colour here is that you can use cheap Soot Black dye to make the vest a deep black colour. (The astrologian glamour I posted in post #2 is using soot black dye on the shirt and pants.)

    I'm not that keen on the female version actually. I don't like the ruffles starting so high up on the bodice. I would have preferred a blouse-and-vest similar to the male version. (and full-length tights under the skirt, but that may just be me. Would make sense with that style though.)

    I'm not sure about the Faire Joi, but I know at least some of the Shisui Joi variations have neckbands and straps. So possibly they've just turned off necklaces for all versions of the design.

    I guess it suits the original set, rather than what people are trying to repurpose it for? But yeah, it does make it harder to make use of it, and also has clipping issues with longer hairstyles that ruin the look of it.

    It might work better if the ruffle wasn't quite so long. (Tactical advantage of the Elezen 'giraffe neck'?)
    Panicked belated edit: Just realised that might sound like I was making fun of your character. Was meant to be self-deprecating on behalf of my own Elezen.
