ii season 4 contestants as gijinkas pt. 1
With Cheesy I never really felt like he was a suit kinda guy. Even as a comedian he never came off to me as someone who would get for formal. However, with his wanting to be more serious in season four, I figured something a little more business casual would be fitting, so I gave him some dress pants, a white button-up, and then a vest for a pop of color and to dress down the outfit a bit.
For Magnet, I went full on Cady Heron for her design (the Lindsay Lohan version). I wanted her to still be put together but I also noticed she has a bit of an awkward charm to her. I wanted to portray that in her design without taking away from her attractive aspect.
Pepper was a little easier because I knew what I wanted from the get go. A simple crop top with a nice mini skirt and nice high heels. Your typical popular girl outfit. (I guess you could say that abt magnet too) admittedly my favorite part was drawing the high heels with the bows and coloring the friendship bracelets. One of them is meant to match with Salt (who I haven’t drawn) and the other one is in Paper’s colors
Candle was interesting because I wanted her to be more casual but I also didn’t want to take away from the African-inspired fashion in her season 3 design. In fact, most if not all of the season 3 contents in my designs wear swimsuits/beach wear throughout the season, so I know I wanted to put them in something more modest for season 4. Instead of the beads, I gave Candle a headwrap, and instead of the kimono, she gets patterned pants. I wanted her to look nice but also comfy.
And then with Cammy I just knew I wanted to give him messy curly hair. His outfit was very inspired by JD from Heathers, what with the trench coat and all that. It also kinda inspired his facial expression lol. I also gave him a small portable camera and a cross. And then he also gets glasses to represent his camera lens.
And then Jack is lowkey not part of the group but he’s here too. I wanted him to look like someone you’d see at a casino. Slicked back hair, a suit vest, and all in all just a nice outfit. I considered giving him earrings but I don’t think he’d be the kind to wear them 🤷♀️
