#3
In Dorian's castle
Clothing:
Light-colored tunic, upper thigh length, very loose-fitting, front
wrap closing. Long sleeves, full, gathered to narrow cuffs. Wide
shawl collar, edged with patterned trim.
Light-colored trousers, very full, flaring below knee.
Accessories:
Self fabric sash with tunic.
Comments:
Dorian trying to look angelic for Christmas? He's fond of loose,
draped loungewear, but this is a bit more exaggerated than usual.
The way those trousers flow into a pool of fabric around his feet must
make walking difficult, no matter how graceful it looks when he's
standing still.

Comments:
A practical traveling suit. The coat is a bit flashy, perhaps, but
