# a thick band of iron with a little ornamentation encircles the wearer`s head
# a silk jacket with long sleeves hangs to the wearer’s waist and attracts the eyes with its brilliant sheen
# a silk garment that is draped over the neck once, the ends of which then cross across the chest creating an X pattern over the wearer`s torso. The remainder of the cloth is pulled towards the small of the back and tied
# a pair of leather pants which hug close to the skin, leaving little to the imagination
# a pair of finely woven silk gloves extend from the fingertips to above the elbow, lending an air of elegance to the wearer
# a pair of delicate silk slippers embellished with embroidery hug the wearer’s feet
# a pair of sheer silk leg coverings extending from the waist down to the tips of the toes. They cling to the skin and leave little of the body’s contours to the imagination
# an ankle length garment with the overall shape of a skirt wrapped about the waist once, yet accompanied by a softly spun extension of silk that is worn over the wearer’s left or right shoulder. The remainder of the draped cloth lands about the forearm and the crook of one`s elbow, creating an elegant sweep of finely spun silk that dangles just above the knee
# a sheer veil of silk hangs before the wearer’s face, held in place by the thinnest cord of silk around the head
# pieces of tortoiseshell dangling from smoothed bones pierce each earlobe
# a thick piece of smooth iron that wraps around one wrist
# a long thin scarf of fluffy feathers is worn loosely around the wearer`s neck

Lets see now..
Wears:
Knit wool robe.
Great kilt.
Wool leggings.
Wants:
crocodile leather boots (or wooden clogs)
top hat (or tortoiseshell hard hat).
leather eye patch.
snakeskin gloves.
Knit wool scarf.
Thinking is some kind of mix of Samuel L Jackson in '51st state', Daniel Day Lewis in 'Gangs of New York' with some random cowboy and pirate thrown in.

Personally, the best character-image I have in my mind is described in-game thusly:
He is in his fourties. He wears:
a large-brimmed hat, covered in finely scaled snakeskin over leather and adorned with leather tassels, which shades the eyes
a pair of leather pants which hug close to the skin, leaving little to the imagination
pieces of tortoiseshell dangling from smoothed bones pierce each earlobe
a bracelet of carefully selected bones, strung on a length of sinew
a thick band of polished tortoiseshell around one finger
an array of smoothed down bone pieces threaded on a length of sinew that`s worn around the neck
a simple vest made of leather. It covers the chest and is slightly open in the front

She wears:
* crown of roses: a crown of loosely woven rose flowers. The red and pink soft flowers encircle the wearer's head sensuously
* snakeskin necklace: a narrow band of snakeskin braided with a strip of leather about the neck
* silk sari: an ankle length garment with the overall shape of a skirt wrapped about the waist once, yet accompanied by a softly spun extension of silk that is worn over the wearer's left or right shoulder. The remainder of the draped cloth lands about the forearm and the crook of one's elbow, creating an elegant sweep of finely spun silk that dangles just above the knee
* silver chitin bracelet: a stylish bracelet of smoothed down chitin squares joined together with wire and edged with shining silver cord
* silk slippers: a pair of delicate silk slippers embellished with embroidery hug the wearer's feet
Resurrecting an old thread!
Saw this one the other day and really liked it.

feather earrings: carefully chosen feathers dangling from iron hoops that pierce the ears [undress]
silk jacket: a silk jacket with long sleeves hangs to the wearer's waist and attracts the eyes with its brilliant sheen [undress]
leather corset: a garment specifically crafted for the torso and upper waist. It encompasses the midsection in a figure trimming funnel of ribbed leather and closes in the back tightly with leather laces. The front is rigid with leather-wrapped bone and the entirety well sewn [undress]
decorated leather bracers: a pair of thick leather bracers, perforated with a decorative pattern [undress]
bone ring: a small piece of bone carved into a ring to fit smoothly around a finger [undress]

I think she's my favourite. A sixty-one year old ex-hooker. Charming, I know.

Re: The best dressed Cantrian!
I had a char who was working toward a Lady Gaga inspired outfit. Alas, she died before finishing her thigh length boots. She had the fur bikini briefs, leather jacket and leather gloves. I hadn't decided on an outlandish hat yet - maybe the feather headdress, top hat, or plumed hat.

Plumed would have been great

I don't think you can use gem lenses for eyeglasses, unfortunately. It's the mechanics...
