With fashion remaining high on the interstellar news agenda, many Caille residents have expressed their concern over integration and assimilation of ethnic Amarr immigrants, particularly in the area of Caille sometimes called "Little Dam-Torsad", on account of the high proportion of residents of Amarr ancestry.
Traditional Amarr clothing styles being far more austere than modern Federation fashion, some residents have expressed concern over how well the ethnic Amarr are integrating into Federal society.
"They're always going to church, and are very secretive about it", said one Gallente hover-taxi driver. "What about all those radical preachers? the ones that say all Gallente are immoral?", said an Intaki exotic dancer. "When I see an Amarr woman, refusing to wear decent Gallente transparent plastiglass corsets, well, it makes me wonder what she's trying to hide, doesn't it?", said a Jin-Mei melon importer. "She could be carrying weapons under there"
Many ethnic Amarr residents responded angrily to these accusations. "Our clothing is modest, in accordance with the Scriptures. It is our choice to wear such things", said one Amarr woman. "Concealing weapons beneath our clothes? Are they insane? What do they suggest? That everyone walks around nude?", exclaimed an Udorian woman, walking a miniature slaver hound.
Meanwhile, many clothing designers are unconcerned about such arguments. "I've made several designs, in an Amarr style, but with traditional Gallente materials, of skintight plastic. They're really popular", said one dressmaker. "I like Amarr customers, they never refuse to pay for something because it's gone out of style between when they ordered it and when I completed it", said another clothesmaker.
As ever, Gutter Press will continue to cover these, and other stories of interstellar concern. Rumours, Wars, Rumours of Wars, Wars of Rumours! |

Transparent clothes and revealing outfits are indecent and filthy, they disgrace human dignity. And this is why the Federation must be destroyed. |

For starters, as much as we hate the Amarr we do not raise eyebrows for their very thick robes nor do we decry it as 'they are hiding something.'

I'm not sure what the basis for this report is. As far as I recall, aren't the Federation the biggest importers of Amarr fashion? |

Transparent clothing is kinda pointless.

Freedom means being able to wear a burlap sack in public without reprisal.
Inclusion was once a Federation point of pride. Assimilation, on the other hand, is the watchword of the State. |

Only if your idea of fashion is grungy vests and dirty pants one size too large. If you like elegance and finery then there's nothing better than Amarrian tailoring. |

There are some good Amarr clothing lines, and there are those that overdo it to the point of gaudy tackiness, so don't throw stones.
I think Gallentean fashions give Amarr a run for their money in quality, but sometimes fall into the same overly gaudy trap.
Hell, even the Caldari tailors come up with some pretty sharp looking suits and uniforms, not that anyone will catch me wearing a suit, or a uniform, anytime soon. Still, may have to drop ISK on one sometime.
And Minmatar fashion may be 'grunge' and utilitarian, but it works.

Guys, you're all egg yolk. The word warrior has ceased to have even the slightest relevance to anything we ever do in our new roles in New Eden. Nothing to get bent out of shape about, for anyone involved.
Now, incompetent, cowardly, boring, blobby, trolling, incapable, inferior, rude and five dozen other descriptors off the top of my head are quite a lot more applicable to quite a few of us. It's a lot more fun to read about twisted knickers when it's accurate and when they go splap against glass walls. Prime Node. Ask me about augmentation.

anyway, Amarr stuff, blah blah, it does look good, but people who wear said regalia usually look gaudy as all get-out due to how much black and black and black they pile on themselves. goodness gracious get something else and stop looking like a crayon. you know? |

It's funny because she started with the jabs first. If you can't take what you dish out...well, not my problem.
Guess she doesn't need a warning about the other group hunting her down for another Vargur to destroy. Oh darn it~

Since we're on the subject of fashion; might I inquire, Ms Kim, where you purchased that rather fetching bowl that you are sporting atop your head? |

As an Amarr woman, and one who is not unfamiliar with fashion, I can reveal that most Amarr women are trying to hide their breasts underneath their clothing, not weaponry.
Although, several Blood Raider Covenant assassins are renowned for their ability to smother a target with their boobs. Or crush someone's windpipe with their thighs.

Mr. Anslo, probably you shouldn't pay much attention to jabs of a mentally deficient troll, they are empty just like her head. Just pop her another Vargur.
Mr. Khayr, I didn't purchase any bowls. And I don't feel like explaining obvious things here. |

Boobs = weapons. Just waiting for the feds to require a CWP for them now.... That should make border crossing and customs even more fun for those of us without Pilots licenses.
