made the mistake of looking at the mc youtube comments and like the dumbest take ever is the why didnt (insert concubine name) say no to Suleyman?
and its like my brother(gn) in misgonist historical fiction, they were literally sex slaves. Gulnihal couldnt say no, Sadika was literally forced into sex, Hurrem and Mahi themselves couldnt say no.
hell even Nigar couldnt really say no to Ibrahim because she was a slave in his household and he was the grand vizier.

You know considering she lives in the same house as them and doesn't have a job I am surprised how little Ayse Hafsa seemed to see her grandchildren.

Is it just me or does the characters have a very symbolic color palette (in particular Mahi and Hürrem)?
Mahi wears a mix of colors that symbolize calmness, stability, approachability and comfort. Even though a few of her gowns so far have not been salmon, beige or brown- the kaftans she wears with them are.
The colors of Hürrem's clothing tend to symbolize youth, passion, desire, confidence, renewal/restoration, and healing.
As for Hafsa, it appears to me that all of her dresses are somewhat symbolic but usually only of her royal status. There are a few worth looking at more in-depth.
The color palettes for Mahi and Hürrem fit their characters, or what I know of them so far. I am really thinking about doing a costume symbolism post per episode, but I'd have to go back and watch the episodes 1 & 3. Maybe in the (hopefully near) future when I have more time on my hands.
