rough designs/sketches for douglass "dl" walker, who i love so dearly, in her court attire. i got everything completely scrambled dates-wise and accidentally started with a baby version of her in the 1920s lmao.
i considered going for a knit vest, or a solid one without lapels, but this felt fiercer and more explicitly work formal to me (maybe because i don't have a lot of context for 1940s fashions).
i think the sharp edges throughout her design contrasted with her more round face and large round eyes hint at the fact that she will deliberately manipulate your assumptions about her to chew you up and spit you out.
