Hello

I though I share this with you guys also. I already mailed the Pics to my GMO and am waiting for approval (or for things to change, depends XD)
I know I should have checked with you guys before, but I was a ity bitty... how should I put it impatient, so I went ahead and submitted them. :)
I double checked the CRLs several times so I hope I am good to go. Sized the Images a bit down for the forum though. Hope you guys Like it :tr2:

and a closeup on the shoes with the robe for reference (the inner as well as the outer. I had to get a bit on my knees so you can see both XD)

For your safety, I would highly recommend hemming the robes so they aren't draping all over the floor and creating a tripping hazard

Id second the hemming. Mine were just touching the floor originally. However after trooping in them and realizing a) I may slouch after a while... and b) not all surfaces we troop on are level, aka grass.

Thanks I will keep that in mind. Actually those are about 0,5 - 1 inch above Ground when I stand at full height, but haven't been walking around in those for very long :?

The fact is that there will come times while trooping that you're holding your robes like a dress trying to get up and down stairs and walking on various surfaces. Just be mindful of your surroundings (as much as the small field of view allows) and don't run and you'll be fine :)

First of all, I do like the "Wischmob" (mop) )in the background*lol* :D ....and as the posts before says that your robe is to long you will clean up the floors everywhere you go!

about the robe...I wouldn´t sign this: "Jup, the one and only"... it´s quiet good for the first time.
I have revised mine complete by a local dressmaker!

I also like the TK Style shoes!

Wish you quick response by the GMO for approval :trsuit:

Had to take new pictures as the ones I provided the first time were in artificial light and a bit to low regarding the resolution.
This time I sent them non compromised and in daylight. Now I have to wait. ^^

Guess I will have to visit a local seamtress here though or try to hem them myself... will practice perhaps on a curtain first though XD
