Kurumi mused while she wrinkled her nose. "My favorite superhero wears heels, but I don't get how fighting crime in heels is good. I mean, won't the bad guys hear you coming?"

"Same." Although Kurumi was significantly smaller than most people, so she was more of an elbow rest. So, she could be Vivi's elbow rest anytime she needed it. "You are asking me for design advice?" Kurumi said with a slight eyebrow raise. "Um...I don't know...something...narrow?" Was that fashion advice?

Finally turning her own attention to her three trash bags on her mannequin, Kurumi furrowed her brow. Could she do all the layers at once? Maybe that was being a little too optimistic. She should start with the bottom layer and see how that went and then try for a double whammy. Yep. That sounded like a good plan. Tracing one last inverted V in the air, Kurumi visualized a white tulle skirt, closing her eyes to solidify the image and then opening them once more. "Summitto vestis." The black trash bag crinckled up and began to sort of bubble instantly, but Kurumi tried not to freak out and continued to focus on the tulle skirt in her mind. After a few more moment, the material turned white and after a few more her tulle skirt was there in front of her.

Oh good. Now to do the other two layers...
"Isn't it obvious?" Vivi put her hand on her hip and tilted her head. "Men invented heels as an instrument of torture. I can't explain them otherwise." Not that she wanted to devote much of her precious time to thinking deep thoughts about heels.

Vivi turned her attention back to the Vivi-quin, or more specifically to the plastic wrapped around her lower torso. The sketch was pinned to the shoulder of the dummy, and she stepped back for one last look. Maybe it would be easier to do this with her eyes closed, but she focused intently on the picture as she drew the inverted V and murmured the incantation.

"Summitto vestis." The plastic thickened and spread, reshaping around the mannequin and taking on weight and form. She focused intently on the seams and lines, since that was really where her skirt was challenging. The fit... that would be challenging too, and impossible to eyeball.

"I meant more like... how to make the belt. Maybe I'll just use one I already have."
