Tailor Archive

Morning.

I haven't been a Tailor in a long time, but I came back to visit the boards to see if there were rumors of new Wookiee clothing popping up. I can dream.

Anyway, in perusing the Top 5+, I noticed the complaint about the hula hoop belts. In poking around a little bit more (not exhaustively), I didn't find anyone who had observed what I'd found: belts fit fine ... around certain clothing.

My Wookiee wears a decorated belt over her decorative waist wrap. The images are perfectly snug. At first I thought this was just some sort of Wookiee quirk, where our waists were right and everyone else's were wrong. Then I had a human or Zabrak put on ... I *think* it was that heavy woolen coat that just begs for Hoth to be put in game? maybe it was the long dress jacket? ... and a belt. And tadah! They fit snugly!

This is probably why the Mabari armor fits fine -- the belt is meant to go with the fit of the armor. Again -- Wookiee, not a lot of armor experience here. But bulky clothing like the decorative waist wrap negates the hula hoop effect, and the belts match up.

True, it would be nice to have *more* belts match *more* outfits, but I think a lot of Tailors may not realize that the potential for a fitted belt does exist. I love mine, and was annoyed with PSG's when I discovered that equipping one took up my belt slot.

Expect the worst and hope for the best and you'll never be disappointed.
