Simple Fashion - Tunic Ideas

As I promised in April, I'm kicking off my "Simple Fashion" series by displaying three outfits revolving around a certain type of gear. This installment will be focusing on tunics. There isn't anything long and complicated about these, nor do I have any tips or stories to tell. Besides, tunics are too often brushed aside after their respective seasons and collect dust for the remainder of the year. This post is about simple ideas attempting to revitalize overlooked cosmetic gear, using a minimal number of pieces. By no means are these finalized...they're just building blocks I'd like to share.

If this type of post seems well-received, I will have a similarly styled post for dresses and/or robes in the future!


Head: Turquoise Summer Circlet (Rose, LOTRO Store dyeable version)
Shoulders: Padded Mantle of the Dunland Soothsayer (Rose, Dunland quest reward)
Chest: Simbelmynë Tunic & Trousers (Ered Luin Blue, Spring Festival token barter reward)



I truly miss the original skin for this tunic...the wheat embroidery used to be a brilliant, undyeable gold.

  1. I thought the farmer faire robe looked...odd. I wonder why they changed the code for dye on that, is like what happened to the old robe of viisaus :/

    love the last tunic, in brilliant red it really looks good :)

    1. Yeah, I'm not too fond of the current skin on that robe. Honestly, I find it strange that the robe gets a color alteration, yet the Farmer's Fancy Dress didn't. I've been bugging this periodically but to no avail.
