)

Is maid uniform elegant? Aono's dress elegant? Is Flan-chan elegant?

genryou · 2008-03-25, 13:17

maid dress indeed look elegant, but is it formal?

imo, if a dress is formal, it,ll automatically look elegant..

but if a dress is elegant, is it also considered as formal?

Here's a small contribution from me....

In case somebody likes them and doesn't have them already.

I have a couple more from the same series, although most of those are of maids.

V.Velour · 2008-03-25, 17:46

Omg one of my possible entries is made with that char :P

konstargirl · 2008-03-25, 17:47

I wil be entering but I'm afraid if I do one then i will turn out lame. XD

@Setsilya~: Yeah a maid unform is cute and elegant but a kimono is totally elegant.

**Solace** · 2008-03-25, 17:56

I notice there's a lot of questions about what is considered formal/elegant. There will be a post about this later to help clarify things. Just wanted to give everyone a heads up.

Well...here I go...this is the 'narrow' version but by BearShare's advice, I'll stick to this one and shelf the other one.

Good luck to all!

Wanted to quote what I said in IchiSora's thread:

Quote:

I really like this one, but like you said, I'm not really sure it fits the theme of 'elegant/formal'. Let's think of the original concept of the maid, shall we?
Purpose: Service, cleaning. The maid outfit is almost a uniform in that everyone has a pretty clear concept of what the outfit should look like.
Someone said that they saw formal/elegant as something one would wear to a formal occasion, such as:
a ball, a wedding, a religious event, or anything of the like. I don't really see a maid outfit as befitting any of these events, unless you'd consider Halloween "formal."

Nice siggy there Renegade!

If it was me I would wear a maid uniform to a ball/wedding/religious event.

Then I'd assume you were there to clean up after everyone....

Clean up everyone? Umm yea.

Marina · 2008-03-25, 20:22

Key word is "after." Not the people themselves, but the mess they left behind.

Anyways, a maid outfit to me fits in the same category as say, a nurse's outfit. Erotic, white and prim, but reserved for work or cosplay. That's a whole different theme altogether.

But that's just my opinion and I'm sure some people disagree. Will leave the decision up to Solace/Sephi ^_^
