OriginalRen Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 So I thought it would be interesting to make a thread where people are allowed to post their favorite style of clothing on characters in the 2D Japanese animation world. We always talk about hairstyles, eye color, and the like, but I have never seen what it is about clothing styles that attracts people to certain characters. For me, clothing is the biggest component when it comes to whether or not I really like a character's appearance in an anime, manga, or visual novel. Clothing says a lot about a person, and while most Japanese shows or visual novels focus on the school aspect (in other words, uniforms 24/7), it is definitely refreshing to see a change into a person's casual outfits. Take for example Little Busters. Haruka is my favorite character in the series, yet her "casual" outfit that was shown in the VN was a major...well, it was interesting, I will leave it at that. So I ask you, what are your preferences? Be it a guy or a girl, post what kinds of clothing work well for you. Don't forget to include images! For me, I have finally established that hoodies are a favorite piece of clothing for me when it come to how a girl looks. I absolutely love over-sized hoodies, with or without animal ears. That paired with a skirt is a fantastic combo, hence the reason my mascots on my profile page (mainly Nonon) has a skirt and jacket styled hoodie. I guess there's something about a girl being naked in an over-sized hoodie that makes me want to cuddle together, who knows. Anyways, some pictures: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suikashoujo Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 This is a pretty good example of what I like. Striped thigh highs+ruffled skirt+hoodie+cute bag is a combination to die for. Joshua1207 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OriginalRen Posted July 2, 2015 Author Share Posted July 2, 2015 This is a pretty good example of what I like. Striped thigh highs+ruffled skirt+hoodie+cute bag is a combination to die for. Another thing I like that's really specific is when they have long shirts over short shorts/skirts, so that the bottoms are barely poking out. Bonus if they have thigh highs with that. Teeku This is technically a school uniform, but it's the best example I could find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zalor Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 It's probably because of all the Fire Emblem I played as a kid, but I like armour, aristocratic coats and cool cloaks: Guys: This is the character my avatar is of btw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasDice Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Just like in real life, I pick trusty old trench coat. Warm, comfortable and heavy. Can also look imposing, mysterious, elegant or plain cool, depending on the person inside and how it's worn. Mr Poltroon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milk Tea Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I think most of everything is fine as long as its drawn well enough...though some might need more effort ne. Most likely, I don't really have favourites... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderfullyevil Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 In general, I like dark colour palettes. I like old style clothing a lot too, like what Zalor posted, but even if it's less army-like. Oh, and if there are a lot of patterns and eye-catching details; I'm sold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Poltroon Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I like Tall Collars. I also like glasses. This is a good example of what I like (but I want a taller collar): I also like partially covered faces. Be it a coughing mask or a hood: Trench coats or long jackets are good. Especially those which move in the wind or as a character moves. This includes labcoats for the same reasons. A certain type of cravat is wonderful: Beret's are awesome. So are most kinds of hats. Typically, something tied around the neckcan only make things better. An extra piece of clothing, but not a jacket. A Scarf. A Cape (is that how they are called?) Military uniforms of any kind are my favourites. There's probably more stuff, but this was all I could be bothered to search for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
