He nodded his head slightly, looking up at the ceiling for a moment. “Th-that may be true but who knows h-how many don’t know h-how to deal with fabric o-or designs or an-anything like that?” he asked, looking back at her. “Some m-may not even be s-stepping out there because th-they don’t look good. It’s just an i-idea though,” Jack shrugged as he looked back down at her book, at another costume design. “Y-you gotta go with what calls to you m-most, don’t you?”
It was very easy to see where Violet had gotten her ideas for the next two costumes: one from the mythological Phoenix, and the other from the Tron movies. The firebird costume was meant for a woman, judging by the figure’s shape, and there was also some influence from Carnivale costumes in the design of the feathery mask and wing-like cape. The figure in the Tron-esque bodysuit was male, and Violet had drawn him “in action”, flying on a hoverboard.
“But it’s a good idea,” Violet replied. “I’m just not really sure how I’d go about it. I’ve been … well, I do have kind of a mentor in the field, but I’ve never had any formal training, and I doubt supers will want to hire someone with no credentials.” She chuckled. “Can you see it, ‘majored in heroic fashion design’?”
Jack paused for a moment to take in the designs of the Phoenix inspired work, the use of feathers, and cape, the flow and feel of the material before looking at the Tron-like work. She could work with various mediums, and forms of material, that was good wasn’t it? They liked that.
“Maybe y-you can just go f-for usual fashion de-design and when you g-get out on your own y-you can add your o-own touch of fl-flair to it?” he asked.
