Inside Out -- Class 5, Period 2 [Tuesday]
Today’s topic was rather inspired by the shopping trip that was looming rather, well, ominously in her very near future. Her tomorrowish future even. What had she been thinking? Juli considered the fact that it would, at least, be nice to go out with Charlotte but at the same time her fingers itched to make a list of what to buy.
She suspected that Charlotte would take the list from her, fold it up, and refuse to let her see it. The whole… impulse-shopping wasn’t something Juli thought she’d be good at.
Ah, well. It would be an… experience. She’d give it a try.
“We’ll be talking about clothing today,” she said quietly. “On this planet there are many different cultures and with those cultures come different styles of dress. This idea is only furthered when you add alternate universes and worlds into the equation. These differences in apparel can be subtle, or incredibly overt.”
“What I’m wearing, for instance, is considered to be high-end professional in my universe,” Juli continued. “Here, it can garner a few glances, but otherwise manages to pass mostly uncommented upon. This isn’t the same for everyone,” she said, thinking of Temari’s fishnet… issue, and Giselle’s dresses.
“From your world to this, what are the main differences in style do you think? Do you prefer your own world’s way of doing things, or do you rather this one? For those of you from this world, or one so like it that there’s not an appreciable difference in what is worn, what clothing do you prefer? Why? Is it for what it looks like, how practical it is, the way it feels?”
She folded her hands neatly over her stomach. “You may begin.”
[Wait for the OCD is up!]
