To you people who keep posting things like this, I ask: do you all realize how OFTEN this happens between sovereign nations, all the time? This is such a common thing to request.

I remember when you were much more light hearted and fun.
I was personally responsible for a lot of the ideas tossed around for this delegation. This is not a time to whinge and shun foreigners because you think you know diplomacy more than the guy who's ended a civil war, among things. To quote one of my more conservative Amarr buddies:
Conservative Amarr BuddyGäó wrote:"I support it. The VA has no small amount of power and resources, and they do represent in no small part the hopes, goals, and intent of the Federation. I have not seen a capsuleer organization have a better working, more effective relationship with their faction than that of the Assembly."
I don't care what you think, as long as it's about me.

Well, neither one was CVA was my point.

Good call. It's getting a bit heated here. And off topic, too.

Triss, I can cook you up a dress if you'd like. I'm pretty sure I still have your measurements on-file if that last batch of stuff I made for you is any indication. When I'm done with my brief stint planetside would you like to come in to my new tailoring suite? I'd love to help you out for something like this. After all, I do feel somewhat responsible!
What happened to the last one, by the way? Fall into a pit of razors?

Like?! I'd LOVE it! I'd love to see where you work too! What kinda dress d'ya think would look good? Asymmetrical? Halter top? Fishtail? Uhhhhh, bell bottom?
So I was at a fundraising gala in Voxam to welcome an influx of refugees from the next system over and fundraise to take care of their immediate housing needs when this jokester lad pops a smoke bomb into the floor and slaps poppers under people's feet. No big deal but insteada letting it go I bolt after him because he's an excuse to not have to be there. The kid bolts into the fenced yard of the rich guy next door but didn't pay any mind to the "beware of dogs" sign hangin' off the fence. Long story short, teeth. Lots of sharp teeth.
When I take you in to the shop we can test out several different designs and how they'd look on you via some fancy schmancy tech mumbo jumbo I don't really feel like explaining right now. I think a dress that shows off your arms would be best, though. Muscles, man. Muscles.
Also, don't fall into a pit of dogs. That's arguably worse than a pit of razors.

Spider silk sounds beautiful! What is it? Is it durable?
I wouldn't mind hosting you both. Spider silk is extraordinarily strong, and comes from this little creepy weird thing that'll give you nightmares, and it's very, very, very very very very soft. I've not got the chance to use it yet. Maybe soon, hopefully!

Ok that doesn't dissuade me. I need to see the creepy weird thing now. See like ok, Captain Mithra, Charlie, I know that Gallente fashions are considered degenerate elsewhere and even my bestest Amarr friends tell me so. So I want to be tasteful and graceful and fancy like all the Amarr people are. I don't have a whole lotta taste I know. I mostly wear like miniskirts and crop tops and I don't think a day goes by when I'm not wearing a leather jacket. So ya that's my usual and I know it's not appropriate. Should I get a fresh clone too without my piercings and tats? Would that be better received?
Personally speaking, I think the point of a mixer is the mixing of the cultures in a way that's respectful and enlightening to both. I don't recommend the punk style you usually rock, but I can help you with a decent length dress that fits your personality as well as looks dazzling and wonderful and aggressive, fitting for the Amarr style of viewing. In fact, you could probably get away with one of those crop-top mini leather jackets on top of a Federation green dress. We'll talk about it. You'll be fun to work with.
You'll probably want to take your piercings out but I know a vendor who I order all my custom stuff from who can probably cook up some piercings just to match your dress and/or for the event. That goes for most of the Federal folks attending, since as it comes to the Amarr, I don't really think they wear anything offensive (in the eyes of Federalistas).
It's a case by case thing. Is Friday good for you? (And you too, Ms. Mithra?)

This is sort of a blanket response to all Federation members as well:
Piercings can be nice. I'm not a huge fan of them, mostly because I like the changes to my face to be resting on my face rather than off it, but when presented well and adjusted properly - just like all fashion - it can be expertly shown off and easily admired. I've known plenty of executive types and even Empire folks who adorn their faces with piercings and it looks fantastic, frankly.
People who judge based off piercings alone need to re-eval themselves. If anything, Triss, the way you talk is the reason, not your piercings! (Kidding.)

I think the main thing you're unfortunately missing is that the bulk and the beef of this thread has long since passed wherein people were complaining and whinging about a single tiny itty bitty wording error and latching on to it ("Requesting? NO, THAT MEANS DEMANDING") and otherwise. While this discussion is a touch spotty with regards to the OP content, it's very much an on-topic inquiry into the dress code of the mixer that will take place after the coronation in addition to some interesting insights in Federal/Empire differences! It's really neat stuff.
