And we thought Nomura's designs were bad....

You know what?

I'm convinced he may really be a fashion genius ahead of his time.

So many things these days have pointless zippers and straps.

Whenever we get in a new truck of clothing at work I'm like, "Didn't I see this in Kingdom Hearts ten years ago?"

But I read he actually added all those belts and zippers because that was popular in Japanese fashion at that time. :P

Am I being the only one optimistic about this!? I know it's chic (and definitely grounded on very solid reality) that SE has been fucking up, but I don't think this is all that bad. It's a neat concept.

Nah, Mog, I like this a lot too. Very cool idea. And I actually like all the clothes. Sazh is a pimp, Noel and Hope are dashing, and I want to choke Lightning (those of you who know me to any degree know this is a compliment).

Sorry, I think it's moronic and I can't get over how embarrassingly ridiculous they all look.

I mean, more props to you if you enjoy this sort of thing.

Japan lives in the future, so what Tennyo says is still accurate. I don't think Nomura's designs are bad per se, just boringly repetitive. Surely there must be something else in his repertoire.

Even though Lightning's shirt clashes horribly with her scarf (I like the scarf. <_<), I still think she looks really good in them. But Sazh looks the best. :>

I want to see Cloud and Zack in a suit now please.

I don't have a problem with the idea, but these are hideous. :monster:

High fashion has never been about what _you_ would like to wear. It's about extremisms of shapes, patterns, colors and fabrics to portray a collection, or an ensemble more so, of different garments.

Especially 1:30 and out. I just love that little monologue.

After seeing the version of Lightning where we see her pants that Purple posted in the XIII-2 thread, plus learning it's really a man's outfit, I like it more than I did before. I mean it makes more sense to me.

This is where I am. I think the concept is silly, but not in a bad way. It's fun and I wouldn't mind seeing more of it. But really

I'm going to take a poll.

How much would TLS pay to buy this shirt?

This is why I will always consider "fashion" garbage.

Yeah. If you're more of a practical type, there really is no point to fashion. I'm a practical gal, but still I can never get enough shoes and bags :P Especially if it's brown leather, for some reason. Also, high fashion and designers to me is like really good artists: I have no idea how they come up with the things they do, but somehow they do. Some collections can look really dreamy. They're like a walking gallery or something.

Also, I think the fashion industry is quite corrupt and bitchy and full of exploited people willing to work for free without contracts and stuff. Which is mostly what makes the business very unappealing to me, even if it's probably appealing to a lot of people because it looks exciting and high-flying and artsy and fun and stuff.

ooo forgot something

Perhaps Japan is ahead of the fashion curve, then. :P
Japan, and for a few years, Iceland was also really hot, for some strange reason. When I was there in 2004, guys were already walking around with marching band jackets. Those exploded a few years later. I think the economy strangled it for them though.

Maybe I'm just bias because I will never approve of an industry that encourages women to be goddamn walking coathangers made out of skin and bone.

The fashion industry is flawed beyond belief. A fashionable person however is amazing, and fashionable doesn't necessarily have to mean 'dressing in clothes in Vogue magazine'. A great person who dresses great is irresistible.

I really hate the snobby attitude of the fashion industry as a whole, because fashion by its nature is for everyone! Everyone wears clothes, everyone's clothing says something about them; everyone participates in fashion on a daily basis. That's what I love about it.

But the elitist attitude that comes with high fashion, and the notion that only model-esque people are ~allowed~ to wear fashionable clothes is nonsense and always will be.

Didn't Square already do something like with with Versus? Because I seem to recall Noctis advertising an outfit that wasn't so horrid as these ones.

I think with Noctis/Versus, it's that a real world fashion designer did the actual designs used in the game (Rodin? Rodan, something Ro...). Like Nomura's initial designs were placeholders, and these designs are the final ones.
 

Purple

Charmed
The final one looks like crap though. He's in a black t-shirt and black cargo shorts. I know FF style is really over the top but Noctis is really, really underdressed for a main FF character. But that's just me *kanyeshrug*

Back on the topic at hand. I think Hope's shirt would work had it been styled differently but I don't know how posing would look on a fictional character. Michael Pitt did it better
