Well, what period/country/status are you going for? If you want variations on basic tunic stuff that can be really f-in cool, check out:

Actually the whole site rocks hard and she's awesome (as I'm sure you know:). The eastern european stuff is neat and is fantastic if you're all about not wasting fabric and love Tetris AND it's as easy as a t-tunic AND you can draft everything on graph paper first!!!!

Sorry, I think it's cool , is all.

I think that Mike being neat and tidy makes him suitable, pretty much as is. That's my big issue for guards/retainers. I'm not so much of the "you must have garb from x country and y time period in z colors" as I am "you must be neat and tidy and aesthetically inoffensive".

When in doubt, ask Roxanne or whomever is in charge of the retinue.

Yeah... must do that.

Coronation is next weekend - perhaps i'll set him up with just basic middle eastern stuff to start...

She's doing 15th century persian.. I can't recall what century darius is doing - but but it's roman.

w/"karate" shoes. the best part is that you can do all the hard stuff (drafting) well before you even get the fabric and scissors out.

I liked what you wrote on the gratitude site, so I read on about you...and I found this entry very moving. Stay strong! I know my life would be so much more fun if I could stop caring what other people think, so I cheer you on in your effort.
