was watching Murderbot when i noticed a detail on Gurathin's sweater:
you see that???? THAT'S VISIBLE MENDING!!!!! the attention to detail in this show is so delightful, so in line with their characters backgrounds. OF COURSE Preservation Alliance citizens mend their clothes! now i'm wondering why they used contrasting colors, is it to show that not even thread goes to waste? is it to be whimsical? maybe even to show off the care they put in their clothes by mending patching darning etc?
i was already piqued when the crew appeared in their non-research clothes, many of them seem to be loose, comfortable garments, knit, natural fibers, earth tones that one could get from natural dyes. this is just the cherry on top.
