Accent cues, used sparingly: Vivid three-piece suits; Strict color discipline; Gesture and gait; Festivity inside daily life. Composition: Cut larger than the body and drop the weight low. Type and lettering: Blow the logo up and let lettering carry the image. Let one material quality come from the second style: Vivid fine cloth, leather shoes, a cigar, three colors at most. Mood: Exhilaration, Rebellion, Luxury. Color: build on #eae6de, #6b655c, #1a1815 with a single accent drawn from #eae6de, #6b655c, #1a1815. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Where the two fight
# - Both belong to Street Style, so the difference is small. Push the roles further apart than feels comfortable.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Hip-Hop Fashion: Borrowing the signs while erasing where they came from reads as theft, and the display loses the ground that made it mean anything.
# - La Sape: Borrowing the loud color without the gestures and rules looks like fancy dress, collapses into a consumer story about poor men in expensive suits, and loses the practice of dignity at its centre.
