Pok\u00e9mon fanart?\u00a0I was inspired by the <a href=\"https:\/\/bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net\/wiki\/Kimono_Girl\">Kimono Girls<\/a> who are present in both the games and the anime and manga. I thought it would be really cool to do a series of them inspired by each of the <a href=\"https:\/\/bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net\/wiki\/Eeveelution\">evolution forms of Eevee<\/a>, who is one of my favourite pokemon. Hopefully it&#8217;s obvious which one is which, but just in case it doesn&#8217;t come through clearly (or you&#8217;re not familiar with Pokemon), we have, in order:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Eevee &#8211; Since Eevee is the original\/unevolved form, I wanted her outfit to be basic and versatile. Eevee&#8217;s distinctive fur ruff and tail formed the starting point for her kimono.<\/li>\n<li>Vaporeon &#8211; For the <em>water<\/em> evolution, I knew a seigaiha obi would be perfect, and I&#8217;ll never pass up the opportunity to include Kanagawa&#8217;s Great Wave when I can!<\/li>\n<li>Jolteon &#8211; Modern lightning motifs for the <em>electric<\/em> evolution, of course.<\/li>\n<li>Flareon &#8211; Hot colours and traditional flames suit the <em>fire<\/em> evolution perfectly.<\/li>\n<li>Espeon &#8211; The <em>psychic<\/em> evolution is hard to convey visually, so I chose to do a base kimono in a subtle gradient of Espeon&#8217;s colours, and the sakura motif obi as a nod to the trainer <a href=\"https:\/\/bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net\/wiki\/Sakura%27s_Espeon\">Sakura<\/a> in the anime, who has an Espeon.<\/li>\n<li>Umbreon\u00a0 &#8211; Like psychic, <em>dark<\/em> is a hard concept to convey, so Umbreon&#8217;s style was inspired directly by the visuals of the game.<\/li>\n<li>Sylveon &#8211; The pastels and bows of the <em>fairy<\/em> evolution seemed perfectly suited to tabane noshi. This is actually the first one I made, and inspired the rest of the project!<\/li>\n<li>Glaceon &#8211; Yukiwa motif for the <em>ice<\/em>-based Glaceon just made sense. The diamond pattern of the obi helps reinforce the crystalline feel.<\/li>\n<li>Leafeon &#8211; Swirling vines and shades of green and brown were the clear choice for Leafeon&#8217;s <em>grass<\/em> form.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>I had a lot of fun finding the right colours and patterns for each of these little ladies, and I love how they look all put together! If you get a kick out of them too, prints are available in my <a href=\"https:\/\/society6.com\/kimonotsuki\/s?q=new+prints\">Society6 shop.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What&#8217;s this nonsense?
