A young man and woman from Norvos.

Her status is higher than his, the silver of her jewelry and clothing should put her in a slightly higher 'tax bracket' if you will. He's a little more of the average citizen, or has a less distinguished/newer household. Also since he does not have a mustachio he is a very young man/teenager.

(If you see this without the other Norvos images know that this is a companion-post , not the whole picture. ;D)

Essos Infographic: Norvos

"Norvos, called Great Norvos by its people, is one of the nine Free Cities. It lies in the interior of Essos, between Pentosand Qohor.

Norvos is a theocracy. While it has a council of magisters, its members are chosen by the bearded priests, who speak for their god and wield the true power in the Free City. The magisters give lavishly to passing Dothraki khals, so their khalasars will not savage the city. Among the Norvoshi only the priests are allowed beards. The priests wear hair shirtsand untanned hides. Once initiated, these men are forbidden to cut or shave their hair.

The freeborn of the city, both noble and lowborn, favor long mustachios; Byan Votyris, for instance, dyes his mustachio blue and sweeps it to his ears. Norvoshi women shave off all of their hair, though noblewomen don wigs, especially when in the company of men from other lands and cities. Some Norvoshi women wear dresses with squirrel collars." - A Wiki of Ice and Fire (https://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Norvos)

Up Next: Norvos

I mostly used geography to lead my inspiration for Norvos. Logically it made sense in my mind that the meeting place of West Asia and Eastern Europe was the best comparable to the little I knew about Norvos. It helps that the book descriptors lend itself in a similar direction. Fur hats, covered hair, etc. I looked at a whole range of references and tried to follow the root connections of Turkiye/Anatolian/Kazakh fashion history.

I want the Historical Fashion covers to be recognizable together... what do you think of these designs?

Most of this though is about colour options. Testing things out.

I think I'll do Pink (B) 1800s and Blue (C) 2000s? What say you?

(For reference 20th Century is a dark green)

The Fooduary Illustrations are also on the redbubble as prints!

Two young people from Lys.

They have the classic Lysini-Valyrian looks, light fabrics with metal fasteners and sparkly jewelry.

Essos Infographic: Lys

"A mercantile city, Lys is built on a[n]... island considered a paradise by Valyrian dragonlords. The sunny island is fertile with palm and fruit trees, and the surrounding blue-green waters are filled with fish.

Lys is protected by high walls and hired sellswords. A city dominated by wealth rather than by birth, Lys is where trade is considered a profession more honorable than arms. The city is known for its pillow houses and pleasure gardens.

More than anywhere else in the known world, the blood of Old Valyria still runs strong in the Lyseni, who are regarded as beautiful. Even the smallfolk in Lys have the pale skin, silver-gold hair, and purple, lilac, and pale blue eyes of the dragonlordsof old. Many of the nobility in Lys have produced infamous beauties, and the Lysene nobility values the purity of their blood above all. Targaryen kings and princes are known to have looked at Lys for wives and paramours, for their blood as well as their beauty. The people of Lys are known to curl and perfume their hair." - A Wiki of Ice and Fire (https://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Lys)
