Public Design Wishlist Thread

So, additions two:

- gift boxes because most of these are not really neutral and still fancy
- simple kegs that still have some appeal
- armoires/wardrobes

I suppose it's really 'all things artisan' because all of these lists make me really sad. I may go and get an artisan cartel once I got the coin for it to help out with the effort.

I don't know if it's good or not, but I submitted a public design for a giftbox on the half-painted koi in the Lady @Maylea's realm!

More recipes for 'Dish'es. There are seriously only 5, and they're all pork, and in all 10+ years there haven't been any more?!

Try a design drive like I did for Skyscribes! I've still got four years' worth of private notepad submission.

@Ordassa Submitted!

Appearance:

handsome, slate-grey robes for a bewinged gentleman

Dropped:

Strictly folded to avoid unnecessary creasing, a refined set of robes rests 

neatly to the side here.

Examined:

Sewn to enhance the male form, a rich, slate-grey cloth has been chosen

for these robes, sewn in a double layer to provide an extra degree of

warmth for the wearer. The material is incredibly light, the inclusion

of a minimal number of seams allowing the garment to envelop the form

closely, the nature of aerodynamics clearly in mind during its

tailorship. The back of the robes dips low, avoiding any obstruction to

wings, and can be laced to the preferred tautness with a simple,

criss-crossing arrangement of thin cords through silver eyelets.

Embroidered about the hems of the garb is a simple, geometric pattern

stitched in argent thread, the same pattern encircling the cuffs about

the wrists, the rounded neckline and along the slightly flared

shoulders. Overall, the robes cut a flattering figure, pressed close to

the chest, shoulders and waist, flaring only subtly at the hips so as

not to restrict movement in both flight and more ground-based means of

travel.


Upon putting forth the effort, I realized that I don't really know how to make sexy man-clothes. But... enjoy, maybe?


Edit: might do more tomorrow/later this week if I have time.

Make some halberd froges.

Selenity

Not a request, but there should be a banjo (read: mandolin) in the public design list eventually. Shoutout to Sondayga for the inspiration and Aramel for submitting it.

I still wish we had a fan pattern.

Soooooon.

It has been brought to my attention that jade is a criminally underused gemstone in most designs. Jade is pretty. It needs some love.

Maligorn

Blue jade is love. Blue jade is life.

Vivet

Black jade is a good sub for onyx and white jade can approximate ivory very closely. Other things to consider!

Luce

But I've had designs rejected before for using gemstones outside their typical shade, so ymmv

It depends on what you mean by "typical." Like beryl isn't always golden or yellow. Sapphires can be colors that aren't blue. I've done white coral before in a design.

If you're using colors that are not inherent to any version of the gemstone, I could see asking for tints, though.

Luce

Like, I had a design reject yellow turquoise and ask me to use beryl, even after appealing to Charites.

Vivet

I've successfully used white and black jade both, so idk, gems can be weird territory at times.

Orventa

Challenge: gender neutral suits, no mention of masculine or feminine, or masculine tailored for feminine, just a good looking set of suits in fancy fabrics. My changeling 'alts' aren't necessarily of the buxom, voluptuous hipped kind, nor linebacker dorito shoulders kind.

Late, but here you go:

This is my new favourite thread.

Also, I love that so many of you have requested something I'd been leaning toward doing anyway. Will definitely go in that direction now. ^-^

Rise again, O thread so dead
We're not done, off your deathbed
And be among new posts instead

I have plenty of empty tailoring slots for this year and no specific plans for them. What are people hungry for these days?

Luce

Semiformal wear for men? Everything's either full evening suits or workin' in the dirt tunic/trousers.

Xiran

Hi! I'm curious if a look like this is possible (yay ceremonial armor) with clothes layered under armour or is it easier to ask for a robe design that uses leather/metal comms.

Is the layering described by Lerad's thread still in effect? Where does armor come in?

Edit: I've been informed armour (the effective, non-cosmetic piece) takes up NORMAL - chest, gut, arms, back but not legs, waist?

That's absolutely possible! Gaudi has...uh...THIS armor:

Emberplate said:

Made primarily from glimmering steel, this set of field plate is
designed to fit tightly to the curves of a feminine body when it is
worn. Rather than being a full suit, it comes in three separate parts:
breastplate, gauntlets and greaves. The burnished breastplate is small,
and covers only the chest and ribcage when worn, leaving the midriff and
upper arms bare. The layered plates of steel are curved outward, two
cups formed to cover and accentuate the breasts when worn. Connected to
the top of the breastplate is a metal collar to protect the neck and two
massive steel pauldrons, each shaped like a quarter of a sphere. The
pauldrons are embellished with gold and painted with fiery tones of red,
orange and yellow tint, depicting symbols of the Templar guild. The
edges of the pauldrons are studded with gold rivets. The gauntlets are
slender, and cover the hand and forearm when worn. Wrapped around each
forearm guard are several thin strips of silk, dyed a vibrant red and
embroidered with white thread. The edges trail and flutter when the
gauntlets are drawn through the air. The top plates of each gauntlet,
over where the back of the hand would be, bear depictions of Gaudiguch's
pyramids, embossed with solid gold. The greaves are made of layered
plates, and cover only the legs from mid-thigh to the ankle when worn,
leaving the hips and groin region bare, except for an upwards extension
which covers the outer side of each hip. Strung across the apex of these
two extensions is a white silk string, to which a trailing loincloth of
red silk has been attached for the preservation of modesty. The two wide
strips of cloth extend down to the gold-trimmed knee joints of the
greaves, and the rear strip bears a hole in it to give room for a tail.
The greaves do not cover the feet when worn, to give a less humanoid
foot the freedom to move, or to allow the donning of boots or shoes.

Haha. That's an interesting piece!

I think I like this one on Etsy the most. Protect the gut but still look pretty!

Care to be more specific? I could definitely churn out some patterns in due time, but my work setting is all scrubs and I rarely get out. Semiformal is a terribly nebulous category too.

Also, greatrobe or highfashion category, assuming the possibility presents itself?

Agree with inquiries, are we looking for blazers and casual dress shirts or just less fancy/lighter-coloured suits?
