Judging the Black Army’s Casual Clothes because I’m a Self-Proclaimed Fashion Guru

@stardust-dreamer13 gave me this idea quite awhile ago, so here we go sweets!

So, I thought long and hard about whether I should actually take this serious (as in historically serious) or just as a meme, but ultimately — considering it is an otome game that’s trying to make hot character and not historically correct ones — I won’t judge them based on fashion that was the norm in the 19th century (because who knows whether Cradle is in an entirely different time, ya know) and will add a few quips here and there.

TL;DR: This shouldn’t be taken too seriously, especially since fashion is very subjective and everyone has their own preferences!

Ray Blackwell

Lemme just stop my nosebleed real quick brb. Our black king KNOWS EXACTLY how smexy he is. Anyway, lemme be a bit more serious. While partially unbuttoned shirts without any vests and neckties are an excellent way to rock a casual look, the inticrate designs (especially in the shoulder/neck area) have enough class to show that he is The King. Also, it’s a very simple outfit that splendidly mirrors his personality. The buttons are also pretty quirky and I love that!

Final verdict: A strong start with our Kuro no King. Regal, but boyish! 10/10

Sirius Oswald

Oh my...this is the outfit that inspired this rather arrogant judging. In my previous post, I’ve made fun of the fact how utterly... dad-like this look is and not in a daddy typa way. The cargo pants aren’t usually astrocious, but when combined with a tealish (???) vest it’s horrendous to the core. Everything literally looks like it came straight out of the closet of my best friend’s American dad. The only salvation to this is the V-neck and his hot earrings.

Final verdict: You’re my second favourite, but bias won’t save you from this monstrosity. 3/10

Luka Clemence

Now on to Luka, my cute boi. I really like the boyish vibe of this outfit! The choice of colours is perfect imo; they don’t clash, compliment him well, and create the perfect atmosphere for a casual look (in contrast to colours like black). Once again, the detailing of spades and clubs only works in favour of his persona. The brooch makes his eyes POP like goddamn citrines, and the dirty white roundneck completes this outfit brilliantly.

Final Verdict: Perfectly captures his sweet, rebel persona! 10/10

Seth Hyde

Considering he’s our resident fashionista, I’m a little dissatisfied by this outfit. There isn’t really anything wrong with it, but it kinda fails in highlighting his personality, as I could see this on some random Highschool boy instead of on our overprotective mum friend. Plus point for the untied hair HOT and the specific cut of the clothes which does indeed flatter his body type.

Final Verdict: Dissapointing, but it could be a lot worse. 5/10

Fenrir Godspeed

Yes. That’s it. That’s the comment. The navy works in perfect synchronisation with his hair and eyes, and his brown—whatever the fuck that his??? Why does he have a second jacket with him??? Anyway, it’s fashion, and it works (although, I’m not the biggest fan of that hue...). The embellishments also showcase his rich boi background, while the breast pockets allow his boyish nature to peek through.

Final Verdict: Brilliant outfit, although I would have omitted that specific kind of brown. 9,5/10
