Things my Characters are Wearing with the Slinky Leia Robes

May 28, 2014 by kamaliaetalia

A collection of outfits I have created using the robes modeled after the costume worn by Princess Leia during the infamous Jabba’s Palace & Sailbarge scenes in Return of the Jedi.


Vestments of the Shifting Sands; Robes of the Battleguard; Robes of Insight/Robes of the Triumvirate; Robes of the Guardian Saint

In a curious paradox of personal aesthetics, I simultaneously think that the “Princess Leia” style robe is gorgeous and that it shows way too much skin for my taste. I prefer to use a neutral or coordinating shirt and pair of trousers underneath. Feel free to consider the shirts optional and to use more revealing pants if you so desire.

Vestments of the Shifting Sands

Fuschia Fantasy


Junior Technician 3rd Grade Goggles, Gossamer Shoulderpads, Arcanist Belt, Astralaan Pants, Widow’s Clutches + Silkwood Cuffs, Ruby Slippers , Cloak of Azure Lights, Formal White Shirt, Staff of Twin Worlds

If your character wears shoes, try the Widow’s Clutches and Ruby Slippers with this kit.

This kit would also look fabulous with the Fel-Proof Goggles.

Helm of the Fire Festival, Mantle of the Fire Festival, Robes of the Battleguard, Cloudscorcher Leggings, Wild Gladiator’s Gloves of Prowess + Nightvale Wristwraps, Kurkenstoks, Nimboya’s Mystical Staff*
A silly costume for the Midsummer Fire Festival.
The Bling Cane is a good alternative for the staff.

A Bronze Dragon Princess


Bronze-Tinted Sunglasses, Robes of the Battleguard, Serenity Belt, Astralaan Pants, Griftah’s Authentic Troll Shoes, Fang of Nemaeus, Mawsworn Darkcaster’s Orb

~*~*~

Robes of Insight/Robes of the Triumvirate

Goddess of Insight

Gossamer Headpiece shoulders & gloves, Sutarn’s Ring, Thornweaver Leggings, Dryad’s Wrist Bindings, Formal White Shirt
This set would also work beautifully with any of the other colours of this robe.
Use the Shimmering/Ivycloth or Sage’s Boots if your character wears shoes.

Winter Veil Elegance

Ata’mal Crown, Nether Guards, Voidweave Cilice, Astralaan pants, Shimmering gloves & boots, Goldenvine Wraps, Formal White Shirt, Invincible Stave
The Crown of Endless Knowledge or Red Pointy Hat would be great alternate headpieces.

Guardian Saint

Heroes’ Crown of Faith, Lightning Infused Mantle, Contender’s Satin Belt, Thornweaver Leggings, Replica Virtuous Gloves + Bindings of Yearning, Phalanx Cloak, White Swashbuckler’s Shirt, Staff of Athen’a
This is a very conventional set of accessories to use with this robe; the Runed Spell-Cuffs would be typical alternate bracers. I wanted to make the “standard” outfit first, though, before I did something more unusual…

Turquoise ‘n’ Tangerine

Watcher’s Cowl, Lightning Infused Mantle, Arachnidian Girdle & Legguards, Serpent Gloves, Phalanx Cloak, Amber Filigreed Shirt, Staff of the Earthmother
By swapping out the cowl for the Jewel of the Firelord, this outfit becomes highly appropriate for the Midsummer Fire Festival.

Serendipitous Seraph

Warmongering Gladiator’s Mantle of Cruelty, Robes of the Guardian Saint, Astralaan Pants, Pyrotex Ignition Cloth + Cuffs of Unrelenting Anguish, Ringo’s Blizzard Boots

Tranquillien Twilight

    I love these robes. I still need to post my yellow, green, and blue transmog gowns, but I did a whole post featuring different 1 handers for the pink one. (http://felfashion.wordpress.com/2014/05/19/pretty-in-pink-prettier-with-weapons/) It makes me so happy to see posts on these gowns!

      Hurrah, another fashion blog to add to my blogroll! I’m not good about seeking out other/new blogs, so thank you for commenting so that I’d know about yours!


      • on May 29, 2014 at 1:42 am Alexandrina

        Aw, I’m just getting started, really. Though I admit I’ve been *reading* blogs for quite some time now. There are a lot of posts of yours I’ve liked, I just now have the WordPress acct to make easy comments πŸ˜‰

    I really like that Robes of the Battleguard outfit, I would never have thought of using the dark top and pants underneath. Really looks good.


    • on May 28, 2014 at 12:09 pm kamaliaetalia

      Thanks! I’m quite pleased with how that one turned out. Now I need to get the Lock leveled so she can make a fuschia version of that concept…

    Oh wow, these are very creative. I especially like the Fuchsia Fantasy set and I have to agree about not wanting to show so much leg sometimes.


    • on May 28, 2014 at 12:39 pm kamaliaetalia

      Thanks!
      I’ve enjoyed seeing the creativity in the sets *you’ve* been making with these robes for Thel’s ROYGBiV contest — I hope you’ll make a collection post of all of them when the contest is over.


      • on May 28, 2014 at 12:45 pm Cymre

        Thx πŸ™‚
        At the moment you can see all the mogs I’ve made (for each robe) under my ‘Armed and Dangerous’ page. That’s a good idea though, I may just do that πŸ˜€

    I really love your idea of using a shirt and pants under the outfit, not just because it shows less skin but because it also adds a whole new element to mogging with them πŸ˜€
    I’m surprised how much I like the turquoise and tangerine one because ordinarily I wouldn’t like that combination of colors. And the same goes for the Queen Bee outfit. They both look great, though. I like all of them. I think if I had any female clothies I might have to try taking a page from your book and seeing what I could come up with, but those robes just look sort of silly on guys. (Though not as silly as they’d look if they hadn’t added some fabric)


    • on May 28, 2014 at 12:41 pm kamaliaetalia

      Tee hee! I’m glad I’m not the only one that likes that silly idea πŸ˜€

      Aye, unlike the skimpy plate tops which look much better with the extra material added in the guy versions, these robes… don’t.


  5. on May 28, 2014 at 1:25 pm wowstorylines

    Just Wow!! Pardon the pun there – really love the robes and I can see where the pants a shirt would be a good thing too. Awesome job as always.


    • on May 28, 2014 at 1:25 pm kamaliaetalia

      Thank you muchly! πŸ™‚

    Love the ideas – The Queen Bee look is cool, and the Fuschia Fantasy one is gorgeous! My only averral is the headgear…do you always feel that you need to include a head piece in your mogs, or is it that you keep finding ones that you just can’t bring yourself to leave out? I personally would prefer the QB and FF mogs without any headgear, but for different reasons for each – I think the hat is a little off in QB, even though the colours are perfect, while I just really dislike goggles in general except MAYBE in mad scientist/engineer mogs…

    Great job, as always, Kam!

      Thanks!

      The Turquoise ‘n’ Tangerine is the only outfit in this series where the hat was a key part of my design concept for the set. For the rest, the hats can certainly be considered optional!

      My policy with hats is generally that if I have a hat in my inventory that works, I’ll use it, but if I don’t already have a hat that works, I’ll hide my hat. In the case of these sets, I’ve mostly found that I already have a suitable hat on hand. In the case of the Queen Bee set, the colors worked and I’d been wanting to find a use for that hat ever since it serendipitously dropped for me — so I used it even though it did feel just a little off. In the case of the Fuschia Fantasy set, I was going for a Ruby Shades/designer sunglasses sort of look with the goggles.

    Absolutely love the Queen Bee outfit plus the backdrop you chose for your screenshots.


    • on May 29, 2014 at 6:53 pm kamaliaetalia

      Thanks! I was rather pleased with that one πŸ˜€


  8. on June 4, 2014 at 12:59 am AmerPriest
