Deb's outfit is based on Innocent World's Merry Go Round JSK in the bodice, and very loosely on Playing Card Gobelin JSK in the skirt. Plus an IW standing collar blouse I regret not getting, and Antaina shoes I own. Playing cards/suits motif + cookie/chocolate to connect to her BFF pep.

Peppermint's is based on Princess Chronicles' Night Prelude long vest/corset with styling inspired by perusing ouji model photos. I almost did jirai kei but I didn't think he would be the type to wear a skirt and I feel that ouji marries the goth + butler very well lol.

Blaine's outfit is based on the heavy layering and long skirts with sneakers I see a lot of voice actresses wear in Japan. Plus the crossbody bag they had on in some F&C concept art by Maya Petersen and similar sneakers they were wearing in F&C because they look cool. I think they look good in cool-casual clothes with an emphasis on trendy accessories.

Blaine & Larry were referenced after some old poodle skirt stylings and James Dean respectively, because of the whole retro thing with the slime elementals but I wanted to go all the way back to 50s nostalgia to differentiate them. I think they would be slimes because of their desire to conform to another person (Spader)

Spader's outfit is based off some vintage tux styling for the overwrought fanciness of it all and I wanted to give him his sunglasses from the Wizard City firemaking audition as an additional shield (with circle reflections to contrast with Patience's glasses). Shape of his head turns to a faceted shape which is both fancier and a lot less friendly than the rounded shape he has in regular form. I think he's ice elemental because of his independent nature and his true abrasive personality.
