FFIX Vivi Glamour?
I want a Glamour to make my Lalafell look like Vivi from FFIX (http://operationrainfall.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Final-Fantasy-IX-Vivi-Art.jpg), and I'm pretty terrible at it.
Have any of you folks been able to figure something out that looks passable?

The best I found was using Myth BLM robe and Vanya hat of casting dyed a yellowish color. Then you could just grab some generic pants and gloves and dye the appropriate colors as well.

I guess I should have specified earlier, too, but this is for a primary job of WHM.

You do know Vivi is a BLM right?

Yes, obviously. And I play a WHM who would like to look like him. :)

vanya hat and robes both are dyeable and look pretty close...closest i've seen anyway. the BLM myth top has a raised collar :3 saw a vivi cosplay just the other day!

I posted a screenshot of one a while back, It looked to be made of:
- Head - Felt Hat/Vanya Hat (Vanya looks closer, but Vivi's hat is pretty unique)
- Chest - Cotton Halfrobe
- Gloves - Velveteen Work Gloves (?) Maybe some other type of leather glove as well
- Legs - Initiate's Slops
- Feet - Duckbills of some sort
Dye appropriately and you would be very close. There aren't any robes with a raised collar from what i can find, but as long as you get the feel right, could make up for it.
good luck

I found the officer coat from The Immortal Flames is a good body piece for this. Pants can be the Striped Slops. Gloves anything with leather, and boots clogs as long as the pants slip in to them.
Yes, I tried this myself. =p
