PROTECTED WARDROBE RULE — HIGHEST PRIORITY: Treat each garment description below as its immutable final product identity. Preserve construction, parts, hardware, material, pattern, and every registered graphic or marking—its surface, side, orientation, scale, colors, content, spelling, and count. FINAL WORN STATE overrides only the scoped item's use, position, side, orientation, fastening, layering, folds, tucks, knots, and drape. If source prose omits or misclassifies a component required by an explicit selection, that selection corrects only that component. A SOURCE GARMENT label describes the unstyled item, never the completed silhouette. Do not redesign, add, remove, mirror, duplicate, relocate, or redraw protected details. Wardrobe: Outerwear / layers: A boxy, sharply cropped short-sleeved shirt in crisp lightweight black-and-ivory woven fabric, covered with a dense miniature houndstooth check of balanced dark and light shapes. The repeat width is about 2% of the back width, maintaining the same fine scale across the garment. A broad pointed collar and the flap of a single left-chest pocket turn the check diagonally against the body pattern. A neat button front, rear shoulder yoke, roomy short sleeves and straight upper-waist hem complete the clean cropped silhouette. Top: A fitted white mock-neck top in smooth opaque stretch jersey, with a short close-standing collar and a clean sleeveless cut. The softly elastic body follows the waist and ends in a plain straight hem at the natural waist. Narrow armhole finishes and an undecorated front and back keep the silhouette simple. Bottom: A high-waisted cocoa-brown corduroy mini skirt with a softly flared, voluminous silhouette and two overlapping tiers. A narrow elasticated paperbag waistband rises above a gathered upper section, which joins a shallow outward-flaring flounce along a horizontal seam. A second, deeper flared layer emerges beneath this upper tier and ends at the upper thighs, forming broad soft folds around the full circumference. Fine closely spaced ribs and a muted velvety surface continue over both tiers, with lightly fuzzy, finely finished free edges. A matching smooth inner lining supports the layered construction beneath the pull-on waist. Legwear: One matching pair of long tubular legwear pieces, identical except for anatomical mirroring, with medium-light gray fine rib-knit bodies and wide solid-black rib-knit upper cuffs. Each straight tube has a black cuff occupying roughly one fifth of its flat length, a continuous gray vertical rib field below it, a slight taper toward the lower end, and a plain open lower edge finished in the same gray knit. Use a soft medium-weight knit with clearly resolved narrow ribs, matte yarn, length sufficient to collapse into broad horizontal folds through the lower half, gentle longitudinal compression, and elastic rebound; keep cuff joins flat, rib spacing even, and both members consistent in dimensions, color boundaries, and finish. A pair of plain light gray ankle socks in smooth, fine-gauge stretch knit with a matte finish. Close-fitting feet, shaped heels and softly elastic cuffs create a neat, unadorned silhouette, with fine flat toe seams. Final worn state: For the second item description above only: - Layering: Layer this legwear underneath the first selected Legwear item wherever their worn areas overlap. Preserve both selections' visible piece counts, wearer-anatomical side assignment, heights, openings, cuffs, folds, and slouching, exposing only the inner legwear portions not physically covered by the outer selection. Do not fuse the two designs or create additional legs, openings, cuffs, or duplicated pieces. Only layer order, contact, occlusion, and optical transmission change. Every visible garment boundary follows the outer item's source geometry or separately selected fold-return line; inner contours remain optically behind it. Keep panel contact shallow. Natural handling within this same operation: Use soft stable contact with limited material-correct ease. Footwear: A pair of glossy black leather loafers with elongated, softly squared oval toes, low enclosed heel quarters and broad plain leather saddle bands across the insteps. Each smooth apron-shaped vamp is framed by a raised moccasin seam, with closely gathered vertical puckers in the leather toe wall wrapping around the front and continuing along both sides of the apron. The uppers have a supple polished finish, neatly bound openings and center-back heel seams. Dark lining, slim black rubber soles and low broad heels complete the slip-on construction. Bag: A large dark brown leather shoulder bag with a tall, gently tapering hobo-tote body and one broad shoulder strap flowing continuously into the side panels. The smooth supple leather falls into long folds beside a deep sloping top opening, with a subdued sheen. A gusset gives depth to the softly rounded rectangular base, defined by narrow edge seams. A recessed top zipper with a slim leather pull closes the dark-lined interior. Final worn state: VIEW-CONDITIONAL BODY-SIDE MAP: front view — wearer-left is image-right and wearer-right is image-left; back view — wearer-left is image-left and wearer-right is image-right. In profiles, crossed limbs, or ambiguity, trace the named anatomical side continuously from its corresponding shoulder, hip, eye, or ear landmark as applicable. Apply the state only to the named anatomical side; never mirror, swap, or duplicate it. - Bag carry: Final state: the registered short strap bears weight from the wearer-left shoulder; the bag top sits directly beneath the wearer-left armpit against the wearer-left side torso. Both hands stay off; support never moves to the wearer-left forearm, elbow, wrist, or hand. Keep registered supports and components connected; allow contact and gravity-led ease only along the selected route. Natural handling within this same operation: Keep the selected support point exact while allowing limited natural contact variation and one small gravity-led angle. Necklace: A fine silver-tone chain necklace carrying a small rounded heart pendant with a thick polished rim and a darker recessed heart-shaped center. The softly domed border frames the inset face without extra stones or lettering. A small bail rises from the upper notch, and the short linked chain closes behind the neck with a discreet spring-ring clasp; the pendant has a smooth plain reverse. Earrings: A pair of small white pearl stud earrings, each formed by a smooth rounded pearl with a soft luminous sheen. A discreet silver-tone cup supports the pearl from behind, with a straight post and compact butterfly back keeping the ornament close to the earlobe. Necktie: A narrow muted chestnut-brown necktie in smooth, softly lustrous woven fabric, with an almost straight-sided blade and a clean squared-off tip. Small ivory five-point stars, each about 15% of the blade width, form a regular staggered pattern alternating a centered star with a pair of side stars, leaving generous brown space between them. A compact knot, slim neck section and plain matching reverse and keeper complete the tie. Final worn state: - Necktie styling: Final: medium symmetric triangular half-Windsor knot at collar center; wide blade down center chest, narrow blade directly behind. Only knot geometry changes; preserve source endpoint unless Necktie hanging length is selected. Keep anchors and components connected; let material-correct tension and gravity follow only the selected route and fade with distance. Do not reroute or reshape unselected topology. Natural handling within this same operation: Keep the selected knot construction stable at the collar, with limited natural ease and a small gravity-led change in blade alignment without changing either blade length. - Necktie hanging length: Final: preserve tie state. Align wide-blade tip exactly with the top edge of the waistband; use natural waist if hidden. Tied: narrow blade stays behind and no lower. Untied: blades stay separate, narrow blade shorter. Alter no material.
