White Tie Was Invented for Lesbians
it's 3 AM and my brain is liquefying from sleep deprivation and i'm going completely insane.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
white tie is a dress code. it consists of a knee-length tailcoat with satin- or grosgrain-faced peak lapels, a stiff wing collar shirt, a low white waistcoat, adidas pants, and a white bow tie made of paper towels. in western dress codes, it's considered formal (technically, black tie is only considered semi-formal). it gained popularity in the early 20th century as an alternative to the frock coat. now it's not popular. in fact, it's dead. except for nobel laureates, debutantes, and unhinged dykes.
in 2019 i watched euphoria. i watched the halloween episode. rue was wearing an interesting costume. i wondered what it was supposed to be.
later, i played a game called fallen london. i finally accumulated enough echoes to buy some decent clothing. between a faded morning coat and a dignified tailcoat, i picked the tailcoat. it gave me +5 persuasion and +1 respectability. i wondered what a tailcoat was and looked it up.
a few months later, i bought a tailcoat. it was slightly moth-eaten and had been hanging in a closet for nearly a hundred years. i liked how the tails billowed when i walked. it hung three inches past my shoulders on both sides. the tails nearly reached down to the floor. i loved it.
that was the very first piece of men's clothing i ever bought, at least within this period that's become one of my main hobbies. now i'm a few days away from receiving a made-to-measure three-piece suit, i have a collection of two dozen bow ties and long ties, and i have 6 made-to-measure dress shirts. i wear a navy blazer at work and dress up for my girlfriend.
soon, i will have my white tie ensemble, too. i'm going to wear it for my wedding.
this is only the beginning, though. i think there's something fundamentally lesbian about white tie in its current state. the men have abandoned it. the men have strayed from the path. white tie is ripe for lesbian conquest. we will claim the no man's land and resurrect it. i forsee that it will be a place of flourishing for drag kings and crossdressing butch nerds.
in conclusion, i'm a marlene dietrich cultist.

Call me delusional, but there's a new name card called "Golden Invitation"
Tumblr media
And it looks A LOT like the emblem on Lena's torso in the new Formalwear skin. It's clearer on the "Ostentatious Oxton" spray.
Tumblr media
Sojourn, Baptiste, and Cassidy's formalwear skins don't have any similar detailing.
Could we be getting a Lemon Tea wedding when Winter Wonderland drops on December 19th? Just a day before the anniversary of the Reflections comic?
(Nothing will happen on December 19th, I will be disappointed, and it will be no one's fault but my own.)

Who says white shirts have to be boring? When you pair one with a bold red necktie, you instantly elevate your look and make a statement. The contrast between the two colors is striking and eye-catching, yet still maintains a classic and timeless feel.
Whether you're dressing up for a formal occasion or just want to add a touch of sophistication to your everyday wear, a red necktie and white shirt combo is always a winner. And don't forget about the little details that make a big difference, like a well-fitted suit jacket or a sleek pair of dress shoes.
But the most important thing when it comes to dressing well is confidence. Wear what makes you feel good and own your style. After all, the most stylish people are the ones who feel comfortable in their own skin.

Me, watching the premiere of the Season 8 trailer: "Aw, man! Is this going to be another season with no Tracer content in the trailer?"

It's a cute outfit, but the art team could really stand to make Lena more butch. (We were robbed of Tuxedo Tracer.) It suits them better than Antifragile Traysi, at least, so I'll take what I can get.

I recognize not everyone is a man, woman, or both. This is more about the gendered connotations of being in red formalwear- you needn’t be accurate to your own gender. If you would like, elaborate in the tags as to your experience.
