Daphne in 60′s Medieval revival clothing! She’s finally done!
This is one of my favorite vintage trends. It’s like historical clothing inception, me interpreting a trend from half a century ago which itself was interpreting historical clothing (which is oft misunderstood, so these are very ahistorical). This is very self indulgent of me because I’m a real nerd for this shit, and the Scooby Doo characters’ clothes have changed so little since 1969, that I really had no choice but to do some vintage studies with Daphne, my queen, the sail in my ship, the ribbon in my hair. In my vision for the show, Daphne would have at least one new outfit per episode, thematically relevant of course. I figure this would be appropriate for the Black Knight or the Ghost of Merlin, would it not be just so?

Parure of enamel and gem-set 'Mediaeval' jewellery, designed by A. W. N. Pugin for his wife Jane Knill in 1848 and displayed at the 1851 Great Exhibition in London. Victoria and Albert Museum, M.10-1962.
This Gothic revival set is "inspired by medieval ecclesiastical decoration"; the headband "bears the inscription 'CHRISTI CRUX EST MEA LUX' (Christ's cross is my [guiding] light)" (V&AM).

obviously these aren't done, the lineart isn’t even done, but i felt like trying to figure out the color palettes. The fun part of doing costume variations for such famous characters is deciding which aspects of their designs to keep or switch around or exaggerate in order to keep their look fresh, but still in line with the iconic original designs. What way can i switch around Daphne’s color palette while still having it look unambiguously like Daphne? I’m not sure how I’m feeling about these, any thoughts? Keeping in mind that theres lineart I need to finish, and floral patterns I need to add to the rightmost dress
