I would welcome an ‘Oscars of gaming’ if we got hot red carpet looksThe real highlight of awards shows
The real highlight of awards shows
Some good lookson the Oscars red carpet yesterday. Lots of metals and bold colours. A few delightfully playful outfits. Still, not much compared to your average RPG. Surely a video games Oscars could go bigger. While I do not give two figs about a giant awards ceremony for video games, I would very much like to see hot looks be part of one.
It’s not cosplay I’m after, mind. I don’t want to see devs dressed as their characters. But I’d love outfits that are in some way inspired the worlds, characters, fashions, and nature of a game, whether it’s in design, materials, or just vibes.
I am particularly thinking ofIris Van Herpen, a designer whose structured garments with organic shapes and advanced materials leads to catwalk shows looking like a parade of max-level priests and mages in the full raid set.
