    I don't know, as an artist and a very fashion forward woman, I'd say your imagination could be expanded.

    Also, Marlene Dietrich would like a word.

    TuT-v3YfzjuGjSA_A04YUthIIUDTJ2bo78jcXUR-A_4UUOytj9lyEA4YraZX5L1va7swwEGvD4mA3xW6eJGwQyX25-F9v-mZ2hjewj4JdDB344ipo3xTNeSn54fIuFjYa5V8GM_Mj6bLw4xtLmLVC6o

    As an artist&designer (not troling) and an ex-fashion forward man (not trolling), [snip] In a world where everything can be "art", art is rarely found. [snip] There is a foundation to art found in nature. There is truth in the Fibonacci Sequence, it's undeniable. Art and math do relate. [snip] In your picture, Marlene is wearing a suit tailored to her body. Its not a mans suit, its a womans suit. In game, the outfit is tailored to the female form and looks absolutely ridiculous on the male form. This is not subjective.

    [snip]

    I would like to point out that the Dark Passions outfit is no less tailored to the male toons than that suit is on Marlene Dietrich. It fits the way it ought to on the male form. You really should just admit you don't like it and move on.

    (I should add that I think it's a hideous outfit either way. That's based on MY experience as a STUDIED, AND PAID artist, but it's also just like, my opinion, man.)

    Was the Altmer tanking? That's awesome if so

    Both of us were, yes. Tom's the Orc and I'm the Altmer. I have to admit Tom got the better angle/pose on my Altmer there. Posed like that, he can actually pull the costume off. Might have to put it in his apparel rotation.

    I would disagree. It is cultural to define a particular garb as made for a particular gender, and that right there means that objectivity has been lost.

    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.

    Well that's the main reason that I put my male character in outfits like this. If ZOS is going to insist that female characters should have "sexy" options, than I'm going to make some people uncomfortable until ZOS starts creating unrealistic "sexy" options for male characters. Some people get really unhappy when I trot him around in the booty shorts and vest Balmoral outfit. If it's inappropriate for my boy, its inappropriate for my girl.

    Love this. Me and my friend did the same once and I don't think i've ever laughed as hard.

    I'm still salty that my men characters can wear women's clothes and hair yet my female characters can't wear beards.

    These remind me of 1970's rock stars. Except for the crotch flap and butt cape. People weren't so shy about things in those days.

    If both of these things could be removed from this costume, I would buy it :)

    I absolutely love the gloves from this costume <3 Would be great if they could be bought separately (as part of some outfit style/motif) :'(

    As it is (with hideous flap in the front, and ridiculous cape from the back), Jester personality is the only thing that fits this weird costume:

    Without crotch flap and butt cape, I would be gladly using this costume for some of my girls. As it is, I can't imagine wearing the weird circus suit over, for example, the cute Doeskin Woodwear:

    This is incorrect. The outfit borrows design clues from existing attire that is specifically tailored to the female form. As a trained artist you should be able to see this.
    (I should add that I think it's a hideous outfit either way. That's based on MY experience as a STUDIED, AND PAID artist, but it's also just like, my opinion, man.)
    I don't think its hideous. I actually like the outfit. I was going to gift one to my GF but she bought it ASAP. I also base my experience AS A STUDID, AND PAID artist.
