Fashion Witch Ensemble Review: How it dyes, fits etc.

Pondering if you shall buy the new costume? At a whooping 1,600 crown cost it's not a light purchase for some, especially with how the quality check can leave much to be desired. Which is what this thread is for! I checked, so you don't have to chance.

How does it dye:


Good!
Colours appears true to themselves, matte dyes stay matte, glossy ones still appear glossy, though maybe a tiny bit less shiny.
The only undyeable parts are the small buttons and metal buckles which are in a subtle iron/silver colour.

How does it fit:


Decent. Whenever chest pieces start poke down over the lower half there's a chance the dreaded tutu effect will appear, but on this costume there's no such thing or it's minimal. Could only see a noticeable effect on my fat male character test, but it doesn't stick out weirdly, just the vest not being flattering with his belly.
It's not all good, though. There's a little slimming on the arms and on male characters the sleeves and the waistcoat looks a bit too short with the waist at an odd place, making it look ill-fitting. This is more noticeable on some bodies more than others. There might also be a tiny bit of slimming on the legs or at least give the appearance of such. So I think the costume looks better on female characters, which is a pity. It often feels like costumes for male characters suffer.

Four of my fit tests with characters of varying body types.

Other things to know:

The hat does not make you bald, not exactly. It covers the back of your head with a bonnet or something.


On the whole, it is a rather good costume which seems to have been properly quality checked for once, but with some odd fit, especially on male characters.

    The hat's strange, it's like it has another hat underneath it (Sadrith Mora Quilted Snood, look below), but other than that I like it.
