How do you come up with so many beautiful outfits for Sophie, Tony and your other characters? You give them all such fabulous outfits and it wows me every time you make a new one.
Thank you, "fabulous" is such a strong compliment ^^ it's very nice of you Gem, and very sweet.
As for your question (that may be rhetorical but I'm still going to rant) Idk, references I guess? In all honesty I don't often design outfits from scratch (the two examples that came solely from my mind palace and are most notable to me personally are the Poke-Trainer Uni-Set and the Glamrock Sophie dress, i think these turned out really nice). There are times when I browse online markets and stumble across something that makes the brain go sparky-sparky and I have to put a character in it (that last colored Sophie wears an extreme crop top that I found on AliExpress, i just changed the colors). AliExpress is great when you're looking for outfit refs btw, it has some cool out of the box fun stuff. Sometimes one outfit takes me like 3-7 references at once to come up with as i Frankenstein elements i like together like a mad scientist. Sometimes there's just one thing that catches my eye and absolutely rams me with inspiration. The PokeSoph jacket i love so much is based on the colors of the Pokémon Bruxish, because it looks absolutely bonkers and I hated the yellow on that Pokémon, it was extremely vomitlike and garish, and I had to rescue this lovely color palette with a proper warm yellow that wouldn't make my eyes bleed.
Generally, I just like putting people in outfits that accentuate their character, I guess? It's a fun thing to do for me, i enjoy it a lot. And references, references are friends.
