It's been awhile since I've seen the costumes in Star Wars designed by Asian culture since the prequels. As an Asian, I'm glad that they've brought the designs back, even if the arranged marriage scene was supposed to be depicted as uncomfortable.
yeah it's been a while! Andor did a wonderful job with it.
The arranged marriage scene speaks so much through the costumes. I love the layers that wrap around each other and eat them up with how restrictive the belts and the emphasis of formality with an obijime, like the grip "tradition" has on the charaters, and the secrets and ulterior motives they conceal.
The boy's mother probably dressed him but likely Leida dressed herself. She's the only one off-shade and has a clear bisection of the colours. It looks as if she's the only one who's actually sincere in the meeting, the one who's less 'wordly' with ulterior motives and thus less 'tainted'. Again, her belt is a free-tying one as opposed to the formal ones on the mothers.
I think it's the first time we see Mon wears a cross-collar top that's more traditional and similar to Perrin's? Both mothers share a similar style but in reverse palettes. Only Mon has Gold wrapping Blue instead of the other way round instead of the other way round. The collar-crossing is a mess but what if it signals how out of touch Mon and Leida are with 'tradition' they got even that wrong?
