tail-sleeves
14 years ago
A question has been bouncing around my head off and on for a while, and I'm not currently convinced it's worth pestering people on the forums but I feel the need to write it down.
There is a lot of art involving fur-covered bipeds wearing clothes over their long, hairy arms or their long, befeathered legs. But none of these creatures with their sometimes well-developed senses of fashion and style ever seem to have sleeves or cuffs or skirts or wraps that cover their tails.
I would think in the case of many, a tail would be even more in need of covering, since for a panther girl in winter, the tail is thinner but no more fuzzy than the overcoat-protected arm or thermal underwear'd leg. And if clothing for fuzzlings is merely fashion, then why wouldn't a tail-wrap be fashionable? It seems a good way to recolor oneself to suit one's mood.

Another fashionable accessory would likely be trinkets and charms to hang from horns, similar to earrings. I don't see enough of that.
