Some are definitely more fashion-conscious than others but I'd imagine the freedom that comes with basically having a physical form of your own design would almost feel like secondhand nature in terms of something as straight-forward as an outfit.
For the Youkai population anyways, fashionable humans are pretty atypical.

- 20 minutes on hat
- 20 seconds on the rest

>>92441
Would be a real shame if something happened to those hats...

>>92433
I'm surprised zun has never thought to create a youkai seamstress to explain everyone's clothes
I suppose when you're a long lived youkai you end up finding a favorite outfit/create your own

>>92433
Do you think all the girls wear underwear? I mean those outfits must be expensive so maybe they'd save money by not having underwear. It's not like anyone would know.

>>92447
some of them definitely do not

>>92445
I headcanon that's Yamame. Spider web -> silk -> textiles.

>>92444
Mokou's fashion certainly is... interesting...

>>92447
>It's not like anyone would know.
Many spellcard duels are mid-flight. Even if any spectators from the ground wouldn't be able to spot a thing due to distance, I think flashing your opponent every other dodging of danmaku would still be considered unladylike and somewhat deviant.

>>92452
bloomers and petticoats don't count, so it's fine

>>92447
>Do you think all the girls wear underwear?
>all of them
No.
>because of money
What a silly reason, that's not it at all.
The normal reason is that some are lazy and just don't want to wash their underwear all the time so they don't wear them much.
Another reason is that some just don't want to wear panties because it feels better going without.
Third reason is that someone stole all of their panties...

I'm positive most don't wear bras because they don't need them.

>>92461
Alternatively certain girls like Shion and Reimu wear the same raggedy pear of yellow stained panties for a week or more because they don't want to change it and are certain nobody will notice!

>>92447
I would know.

>>92447
You think ladies who are flying around above the village or are fighting each other with witnesses are goimg to wear a dress and no pantsu?

>>92463
Makes perfect sense.
>>92465
Not everyone flies and they're not flying around all the time, right?

>>92467
>Not everyone flies and they're not flying around all the time, right?
if you think there is a chance of you running today, would you wear running shoes or not? i think most of them wear panties due to the nature of their lifes, they are not planning on flying/fighting, but it can happen so they are at least ready for that

They wear the same thing every day, so they probably spent a decent amount of time for a little bit creating their signature outfits, then zero time for the rest of their lives.

>>92465
Those dresses are so frilly you'd need hurricane force winds to flip them. It's fine.

>>92465
Rumia's dress isn't so intricate yet I've heard no men, not even expert peepers, have managed to catch a glimpse of what she's got underneath.

I always thought most 2hus are wearing pajamas. Look at Patchouli, that's a nightgown

>>92625
patchouli also doesn't go outside

>>92625
A very fancy nightgown still!

But look at the rest of the SDM, Patchy is the exception since she's always cooped up in her study and doesn't interact with guests much. Everyone else is wearing proper and formal clothes. Especially Remi and Flan who Sakuya sees to with extreme care and diligence.

>>92465
yes

>>92447
Of course they wear underwear. Girls have to show off their own underwear to other girls all the time.

>>92625
Patchy puts effort in to look pretty. She wouldn't have those cute alternating red/blue bows if she didn't mind her looks.
On the otherhand, there's some that are really weak and are wearing pajama clothes.
Tsukasa's clothing is just a bedsheet with some ribbons, and there's Chiyari's Hecatia brand oversized t-shirt and plaid bloomers. The barest amount of effort to fit in with everyone else.

>>92754
Tsukasa is a bad example, she wore clothes that are easy to take off, la zorra.

>>92754
Chiyari looks good though
More Effort =/= better

>>92754
Who's the most fashionable of the Touhou's then? Would it be Jo'on? She seems to put in the most work into keeping up with trends.

>>93881
I feel like she cares less about fashion, more about appearing visibly richer than everyone else

>>93910
That's what makes something fashionable, at its core.

>>93912
No, it does not. Fashion is tied to proper aesthetics much more than to glitz of the rich, even if there is an overlap at times.
I don't want to derail too much, but just look at the rich people with celebrity bend and judge whether they are fashionable, or full of kitsch.

>>92447
Most of them wear bloomers.

I don’t know how Momoyo manages to deal with those damn ribbons. There are so many of them, they must feel constricting when she contracts her muscles, and god forbid one becomes loose and she loses it.

>>93981
I bet her skin is thick and taut like a centipede carapace, she can tie those ribbons hard and be fine

>>93913
Would you not call gyaru fashion fashion?

>>93881
>Who's the most fashionable of the Touhou's then?
The answer is obvious.

>>94691
RenMeri clearly don't count.

>>93984
Isn't gyaru an anti-fashion, in its inception? Like punk in West?
Besides, I would hesitate to call any type of subculture aesthetic as a fashion, because you are not trying to look good, you are trying to properly slot into social circle. You can get fashionable inside an aesthetic, I would say, this goes for more mundane things like office clothes as well.

>>95356
>because you are not trying to look good
There is no objective definition of what looks good and trends change over time; for example since 2016 oversized clothing has become popular with it hitting mainstream adaptation in the past 3 or so years; if you go near any university you'll see 20somethings wearing oversized baggy jeans or jean shorts, probably from a thrift store. Some of the most well respected fashion houses in the world started as part of an anti-fashion movement in the 80's. I believe anyone who conciously makes an effort in their appearance can be considered to be involved in fashion whether that involves adopting the style of a subculture, adapting that style to better suit their own lifestyle, or just doing their own thing. People can adopt a style to fit into a social circle - imagine any high schooler being peer pressured to have cool clothes or someone being influenced by what a musician is wearing - but not everyone adopting a style is doing so for that purpose. To use the example of Gyaru people wouldn't get into it for the purpose of fitting in if they didn't like the clothing; you get into the style because you like the clothing, and the friends come afterwards. In the case of office clothing, people wear that because they're required to, but are afforded some degree of self expression through their choice of suit cut, colour, pattern, tie, socks etc. Subculture usually ends up influencing mainstream culture after some time, but usually only the largest subcultures enter mainstream acceptance.

I love frills and funny hats, but sometimes the best 2hu designs are the simplest ones. I have always liked Sekibanki in particular because of the colour combination of red and black and the capelet partially covering her face, making her look a bit chuuni. Other simplehus I like the design of are Reisen and Aya, who are also just wearing a shirt and skirt combo (or a skirt and suit jacket) plus various accessories, but are still distinct looking characters because of their different colour schemes.

>>95700
When I think about it, Suwako's clothing is fairly simple as well. A white undershirt with an overshirt that matches the color of her skirt, and a fairly simple hat. Yet it's quite distinctive to Suwako despite being a design most any character could pull off.
