Fashion Scouts
🕑 Added 2021-10-03 18:32:44 +0000 UTCOne of the ideas I had for the Sailor Moon artbook was to assign each Sailor Scout a fashion designer and decorate their sailor uniform with the designer's brand. These were a couple of mockups for Sailor Moon and Sailor Mercury, who I assigned Louis Vuitton and Guo Pei, respectively.
I still like this idea and want to see this through, but these might not be the final poses. I'd like to put all the Sailor Scouts together in a group pic eventually, but I'm not sure how I want the group pic to come together. I might switch to portraits instead of full body so you can really see the patterns.
Oh, and the current sailor-designer pairups are:
- Sailor Moon x Louis Vuitton - I think the pattern is pretty iconic and I want to replace the little logos with some Sailor Moon logos.
- Sailor Mercury x Guo Pei - Based on Guo Pei's porcelain gown, a sailor suit decorated like porcelain just sounds cool as heck
- Sailor Venus x Burberry - With the Burberry plaid and Venus's orange/yellow color palette, I want to channel Cher from Clueless (her suit was made by Dolce & Gabbana but plaid isn't really their signature and also I heard they're a problem?)
- Sailor Mars x Prada - Prada has really been into this flame graphic recently, and Mars has fire powers
- Sailor Jupiter x Chromat - I'm not set on this one. I just think a cagelike look for the sailor suit would look super cool, and I guess it makes sense since Jupiter has electric powers and the cage will look like wires a little? Open to feedback
- Sailor Saturn x Alexander McQueen - that one dress with the purple decaying flowers is just perfect because Saturn has powers related to destruction
- Sailor Uranus x Versace - even though Uranus is the navy blue sailor, her bow and hair are yellow so she's always associated with gold elements too - perfect for Versace
- Sailor Neptune x Balmain - I just love the Balmain patterning, and the pearls are relevant to Neptune's ocean powers
- Sailor Pluto x Louboutin - This was my inspiration for this collection, her colors are black and red and imagining a signature Louboutin peekaboo red on the suit could make it really chic
- Sailor Chibimoon x Marine Serre - Marine is an upcoming brand who is recognizable by her crescent moon pattern. How can I not include a moon fashion pattern in this?
There are other designers I would love to explore with this idea too, so maybe I could do a round two at some point. If you have designers you'd like to see, let me know!

Okay. So. My feelings on Iris Van Herpen are very mixed but you are technically correct that she would work really well with Jupiter. IvH pulls inspiration from nature and Jupiter has nature powers in addition to electricity I just think IvH's designs are cooler in real life than when someone draws them? Because the whole point is that they look like a living art form you know? Idk I have to think about it =w=

Stunning ideas!!! If you want a suggestion maybe Iris Van Herpen? Some shapes could look like electricity
