The big bow with the pearl in the back is literally kokomi's outfit
This is Watatsumi resistance fashion, and it so neatly encapsulates Chiori's ethos. It's so interesting to me that THIS is her inspiration when she finds her back against the wall. No resources, no allies in the system she's trying to overcome.
But she steps forward and allies with the fatui(lyney and lynette), the traveler, and Navia, just like Kokomi made alliances.

Chiori is Inazuman, but she REALLY doesn't like Inazuma, and it shows here. The tradition and legacy of eternity is stifling to her creativity. Bringing forward the legacy of resistance and blending it with Fontaine's drive for innovation.

Absolutely in love with these designs. Lynette leads the way as the first model to appear, her hat literally glowing as the light of innovation. Lyney is the cutting edge, sharp angles, bold colors, standing out even amid the other Chioriya designs.

Navia is a cresting wave, the height of fashion, something a little more traditional but still a very bold design.
And finally, bringing up the back of the show, Kirara is in a *very* traditional outfit that still has frills and touches to show that Chiori refuses to do anything without putting her own vision on it.
All of this ties into Chiori's speech. Love it.
