(Sorry the graphics might be bad!, I'll try to find a way to increase quality on our next post <3)
The Outfit mainly consist of a dress, shoulder
guards, cape and circlet. The main dominant colour is blue and gold .
When I created this outfit, I used Celondess who is a hunter class. So most of
the theme and origins would be based on the hunter class (I'm not sure if this
outfit will look the same with other races except for women Elves). It's very
different from what hunters/warriors would usually wear as its not a
hauberk/plate etc. When I was making this outfit, my idea was "When
there's no war, a guard would still wear armour but something less bulky
etc." Like an outfit in times of peace.
~~ The blue colour (more specifically Ered
Luin Blue) gives that Blue Mountain style feeling and it greatly links to the
place of origin. It contrast well with the gold linngs on the dress, and
shoulder plates to make it look very versatile and complex. Although the shoulder
plate looks bulky (it is for medium armour) the curves of the plate get away
with it and fits in with the dress quite well. Plus the shoulderplate makes it
look like the outfit is still good for battle, not a fully prom date night
outfit xD
The dress itself is long-sleeve because who would
wear a short-sleeve top in the middle of the cold?
These combination of colours almost shows like a
royalty theme, (like a personal guard for Thorin Oakenshield, when he stil
lives in Thorin's Halls) and dress makes it even more elegant (for women).
There is also a hint of white which connects to the snow of Ered Luin and
brings out the patterns of the dress.

In
this photo you can see the intriquite design of the dress and how it
contrasts well with the blue and gold, whilst the white allows the 2 colours
to look more dominant and saturated.
Here's
a backshot of the outfit
One
of my favourite parts of this outfit is the cloak! It actually took so long
for me to find a cloak that fits with the dress and shoulder pads, but after
scrolling through the AH I found one that follows the gold lining concept.
Once again the pattern of the gold lining and the contract between the blue
just gives off that royalty look (like a vanguard style).
~~
I took out my weapons, as this outfit can also work with different
classes (I'm guessing as long as your character is female and is an
Elf/Man then it will work. I might try experimenting with hobbits, dwarves,
and male characters and update you guys if it looks nice.)
Special Touch... |
~~ I added a special touch to the outfit, which you
guys probably did not notice in the other shots. I added a small dagger within
the outfit to show that you still mean business and have a weapon to use just
in case something bad actually happens.
