A New Fit

As daughter of the royal ambassador, Ariandra was required to wear body armor while traveling in foreign territory.  For several months she endured the traditional plate carapace. It was oversized and bulky in a way that made her look far too much like a palace guard, or as Ariandra lamented, a “bumbling brute.” 

Seeing her anguish, Ariandra's father ordered the services of the kingdom's most famed tailor to design a custom outfit. It was to be both protective and fashionable. 

Finally she would be seen in public, and was eager to peruse the foreign bazaars in style.
