    So that Dalmascan glamour is nice but

    Why is the drape part on the pants... I was so hyped to use the top (thinking it was a tribal dress) with the Ravel keepers sandals but that's not happening.

    The top looks super lonely by itself, I guess it will match the spring skirt or some plain pants? But still I think the best thing for it's design would've been to make the top/drape seperate from the pants. I was hoping to use the simple pants as well. Anyone else think of this or am I the only one who cares about this super simple glamour?

    Frankly, I am quite relieved the drape wasn't attached to the top. It feels like the majority of tops in this game have some overflowing dress to them. Though I am slightly annoyed the top doesn't quite reach the waist. I was hoping to pair it with my Edengrace Pantaloons of Healing, but there's a slight disconnect between the bottom of the top and the start of the pants. Guess I'll continue to be shirtless...

    Hmm perhaps. Or they could have made a different variation to have both top and pants separately since lately they been adding different styles of the glamour.

    Fine, the drape isn’t part of the chest. I’ll just wear it with the spring skirt or—

    there\\'s a slight disconnect between the bottom of the top and the start of the pants.

    From the way similar outfits are structured when the drape is part of the chestpiece, like the Thavnairian bolero or the Thaliak PVP gear, I would guess that making them part of the pants was necessary for the overall shape of the outfit.

    Drapes on shirts tend to stick out wide to leave space for character leg movement without clipping, but putting the drape on the pants allows it to have that closer fit and let it move more naturally. (At least I assume it would move along with the legs, but I haven't seen it in motion.)

    I am surprised, though not necessarily upset, that they didn't attach the drape to the shirt itself for once. However, that doesn't mean I like the drape being attached to the pants as they are, especially when the shirt cuts off awkwardly at the waist. I am not a fan of SE's tendency to add superfluous things to shirts (I'm looking at you, Craftsman's Singlet), because they often look unnecessary and make glamouring a pain to work with. Times like this I wish that they would just make the belt slot visible again and assign these parts to it so they can be an optional part of the outfit.

    Okay, false alarm. It actually meshes just fine with every piece I could think to check without leaving a gap. I guess the Edengrace pants mentioned above are one of the few exceptions. The "belt" is part of the chest though so it looks slightly awkward with bottoms that have a belt on them too. Otherwise, it's not as bad as I feared and I can make something workable from this!
