also sorry i dont like dany on this page so here’s better dany feat. arya:
bad handwriting translation:
Robb: formal northern attire
All (northern) formal events require a fur, but they’re also common in winter.
Robb is wearing his shirt loose, but usually it’s buttoned up the neck
long sleeve undershirt—if they go outside, it’s usually wrapped at the bottom of the sleeve to keep cold air out
Robb’s hair is a little shorter than is common in the North, but he hates when it tangles
Jon: semi-formal to formal summer wear
most northern attire is patterned/embroidered along the edges
the quantity and complexity of embroidery and beading increases with formality
thick fabric doublet, not fur-lined, but maybe along edges
think long or quarter sleeve undershirt
Theon: northern noble casual outdoor wear
doublet and gloves are fur lined
most northerners have simple clasps or leather straps to hold their cloak in place but Theon likes jewelry—usually gold
doublet sleeve tucked into wrist wraps
thin knotted leather belt. more common day-to-day or for riding than formal thick belts
more theon specific notes: most greyjoys are also first men, though a different ethnicity than mainland northerners. islander first men have darker complexions, straighter hair, and leaner builds compared to bulkier northerner builds. very few “native” iron islanders exist by nature of their culture—most are mixed or straight up andal but greyjoys have pretty strong first men blood.
1 breast exposed (grrm ur on thin ice…)
many accents of sheer fabric
emphasis on drapery elements
red body paint (body paint is common + symbolic in much of essos): 2 red dots on eyebrows, circles on shoulders
dangling jewelry makes pleasant musical chimes
dresses commonly one shoulder with long skirts, layered in strips
the type of arm wrap she’s wearing means she’s a maiden
Arya: northern noble outdoor attire
fur lined over coat/vest with slits in the slide for arms
braids!!! long braids are THE northern women hair style, starting low on the neck so hair can cover ears
hat has flaps the provide the ears a bit more coverage but they’re more decorative than anything, beaded deerskin most likely
