  • The response on my male outfit video was so incredible - and lots of folks wanted to see a video on the female outfits. So I'm happily obliging with another JoJo's Bizarre Adventure fashion review.
    While I understand that Araki was more concerned with drawing beautiful men's fashion - i still think that it was a missed opportunity to not feature a greater abundance of women's fashion - especially with his fantastic designs.
    But regardless, out of the ladies that we do get, there are some wonderful outfits, and I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

    Thanks again for all of the support on this vid y'all - so blessed to already be seeing some traction since taking this platform more seriously! Yes, I will be checking our Bleach and other similar animes, as well as plenty of video games, so long as the designs resonate with me.

      If you wanna keep looking at more nerdy media for fashion in this channel I would really recommend League of Legends. It's pretty popular and has been around a really long time so aesthetics have changed a lot, but in my opinion there's some really good fashion in there. Especially with newer stuff like K'Sante.

    One thing to be noted is that the manga is originally in black and white, the color we saw here is added by the publisher much later on for a colored version of the manga. (Personally, I think the original black and white will always be the definitive version)
    The author Araki Hirohiko usually only colors the cover of the volumes and other artworks, and he almost never have a set color scheme for a character, he likes to change the color however he feels like it at the moment.
    That aside, I really enjoy these videos, I didn't realize that I didn't pay enough attention to the details of the designs, great work.

      @ChannelName947 Yeah, it's hard to know for sure. I think I would assume that a major story point decision like that would be under the control of the writer himself, but I also realize I don't know enough about the industry (or how it was run back in the 80s) to really say that with any confidence, and it's made even more complicated by the fact that whoever is responsible would have every reason to try and shirk responsibility at this point.
      But I think we can all agree that regardless of whose decision it was, it wasn't a good one and I'm glad that Araki starts writing women a lot better in the later chapters. The series is far too weird and wonderful to be held back by something mundane like misogyny.

    Minor note on the Jolyne fit; the Jacket is a part of her prison garb, (most characters in that part are locked up, its wild). Pretty sure that's why it doesn't seem to work with the look. It's just tacked on as a part of the protocol.

    you pronounced miraschon right! and guess (heh) what! gwess DOES take of the jacket in a later scene (though it is a prison jacket cuz stone ocean takes place in a prison so she usually does have it on). and jolyne's outfit does have a few variations, like a short jacket, a trench coat, no jacket, a waist cape, and armbands, so there's plenty of minor changes if you don't like certain elements!

    Miuccia's outfit also kinda serves a functional purpose too. Her ability is to make the victim unable to remember/perceive more than three things at a time. For example, if there are four guards, you keep forgetting the first one you saw. Or if someone shoots four times, you forget the first shot.
    So I imagine it's pretty confusing to look at her outfit if you've been effected by the ability. And if remember correctly, someone tries to explain what she looks like to Jolyne, but because she's been effected, she just can't get the full picture.

    I love this video A LOT cause for having this context on how their fashion choices are fits with how these women react and fight within the manga/anime. Miuccia's look in particular really highlights this with the outfit showing the confusion that Jail House Lock causes. The fact that its so messy, so confusing and hard to grasp reflects her whole stand fight PERFECTLY. It really shows how much thought Araki puts into these outfits and didn't just slap them on cause they look good (not that's a bad reason but I love the depth). I'm glad to see him branch out with more expressive female designs later on too. As a gay guy I really was hyperfixated on a mangaka drawing very androgynous outfits for male characters. I love that a lot especially since with other male outfits in other manga/anime where very safe at times or just VERY masculine. With Jojo, a lot more outfits are colorful, playful and just really nice looking and stuff that I REALLY WANT TO WEAR. Because I was fixated on that, I never thought about how little female representation there was till this video. So I'm glad from Stone Ocean onward that there is more of it (I know there was a comment that already explained why) cause these female looks work so well and add a nice diversely to the looks.

    There are so many really neat Jolyne outfits!! The skirt version of her classic outfit is amazing!! I'm sure you would not like her camo pants/orange top look from when she was younger hahah. I kinda love it though because the orange really pops against the camo, plus the top isn't even a top it is more a body suit that shows off some skin in a fun way. Now on to the best ones, the outfit she wears when she commits vehicular manslaughter with Romeo, it is fantastic, the skirt is amazing. It makes me think they were on their way back from the beach and it was a cover-up. Finally, while this is not technically Jolyne, Irene's outfit at the end of the series is amazing. I love it so much, it is honestly my favorite!! I just think that Jolyne/Irene can really pull off orange. I can't say I would love the color on myself but she makes it work. I absolutely adore the heart cutouts!! Plus I think that sweater adds softness to the original Jolyne outfit. When she takes it off, I think it is so fun how she now has a strapless top! Plus her hair down is just gorgeous, I think it effectively shows the transition from Jolyne to Irene. Her outfits deserve a video itself! I loved your takes, and I would love to see you deep dive into all of Jolyne's outfits. OH, and how could I forget the Jolyne fly high collab with gucci, stunning, i am a sucker for florals.

    Just my hunch, but I feel like the reason the part 6 outfits slay as much as they do is probably because Araki was compensating for the greatly reduced number of male characters in that arc by applying the same design sensibilities he'd normally use on male fashion onto the female characters. Looking at a lot of the part 6 women I can very easily imagine him dressing male characters the same way (and I guess in Anasui's case that's pretty much exactly what he did!)

    @LaMarcheFutilé101 Před rokem +12

    Another really great video, glad this one came up so soon after I found the JJBA male fashion one. Araki's bias towards male characters is pretty obvious to anyone who's ever read/watched the series, and even more so when you look in terms of who the "core" cast for each of the parts is (as opposed to just a raw character count); however, to his credit he gets a lot better about it as the series goes on and especially so once Jolyne is introduced. And unlike many artists, he draws the male and female characters alike in outfits that show off their bodies, making the whole thing feel a lot less skewed than it otherwise might.
    JJBA is obviously something of an exception amongst anime and manga in terms of the sheer level of fashion present, but I'd love to hear your thoughts on other series (animated or otherwise) and what you think of them. It feels like there's a lot to be said about character fashion that tends to be glossed over.

    I love that Lisa Lisa is the creators first step into female fashion design and it is such a good one, I definitely think that it paved the way for him to start doing more women outfits

    I just saw your male outfits video today and loved it and then this came out! It’s really interesting hearing you talk about jojo fashion, I feel style is such a core element of the series and what makes it so unique and one of my favourites, but I agree that Araki can definitely experiment more with female character design, Some of my fav outfits are Yasuho, Ermes, Trish, and ofc Lisa Lisa, looking forward to any videos about video game fashion!

  • @thinkublu
    @thinkublu Před rokem +6

    Other people have already talked about araki's advocacy for strong female characters, but the other video also shows the opposite - he also started injecting his interest in fashion as the story went on, and having beautiful male characters, something that very much isn't usually present in this kind of story
    Also, a bit of trivia on midler, she didn't actually have a design in the manga or anime, all that was shown was one panel of her collapsed body but when they were making the '98 fighting game based on stardust crusaders they asked araki to make a design for her, hence why the only images you could find of her were the game sprite and araki's art
    Also, personally my favourite outfits are Irene's and Yasuho's, I genuinely want to wear them, especially Irene's
    I'm also a big fan of Jolyne's, but particularly when she wore her prison jacket over her normal outfit

  • @MajoraZ
    @MajoraZ Před rokem +6

    Loved the videos! I've never been into fashion (with 1 exception), to the point where I sort of prided myself on just caring about comfort (aside from if fluorescent lime or iridescence is involved, though that's not the exception I mentioned before) in clothing: I pretty much only leave the house in track pants, a sleeveless shirt/muscle T, and a light jacket. But the previous video, in particular the part where you mention liking jackets unzipped towards the bottom so they flare out, made me realize that it's not that different from (and is related to) stuff like character or creature design: I'm absolutely the sort of nerd who writes multiple paragraphs about all the aspects of Pokemon or Digimon designs and why X specific anatomical feature or Y color choice makes that one of of my favorites.
    I'm not sure i'm gonna suddenly coordinate outfits or anything, a particular hangup I imagine I'll still have is the fact that clothing to me is still ultimately utilitarian and social expectations are (sadly) a thing, but you've definitely given me a bit of a new perspective on it.
    Speaking of creature design, I think it might be neat for you to do a video on some of Jojo's stands, too! Many don't have "fashion" in a literal sense, but I think aeshetically a lot still have the sort of high concept fashion designer look that a lot of the human outfits in the series do, especially in parts 5, 6, 7, and 8.
    Lastly, I said there was one fashion thing I am really into, which is that Mesoamerican (Aztec, Maya, etc) history and archeology is a huge passion of mine (I actually act as a consultant for channels on videos on the subject), and by extension Mesoamerican clothing and fashion and artistic motifs are something i'm interested in I'm not sure how much that's something that would be of interest to you, but I wanted to go ahead and throw it out there as something to check out if it does: Mesoamerica often gets sterotyped as ruins in jungles and people in big headdresses, but they were huge urban civilizations with really refined and varied artisanal traditions and practices, and that includes fashion and clothing: I find that when showing people accurate depictions of Aztec clothing or architecture, it's closer to their idea of Japanese kimonos or Minoan palaces then their mental image of what "Aztec" really is.
    I could throw out a ton of suggestions and share resources, but some quick ones would be Kamazotz/Zotzcomic/Daniel Parada: He does infographs and art focusing on Mesoamerican clothing, hairstyles, body paint, and jewlery for different cultures and time periods. OHS688 does a lot of similar work, though be aware that about 70% of his stuff uses furry/anthro characters, though the fasion is still accurate. Rafael Mena is another, though his pieces are more portraits and life scenes then infographs (though Daniel and OHS do some portraits/life scenes too).
    Again, there's a lot of other people I can suggest (and if you're interested, let me know, and I can shoot you an email when I get the time), but those are where I would start!

  • @jamesevans6332
    @jamesevans6332 Před rokem +4

    Loved this follow up, consider me subscribed! Just got a couple of things to say:
    10:19 The weird look for Miuccia's jacket makes sense in context; it's meant to look like a brain and goes together aesthetically with her Stand, Jail House Lock, which manipulates memories. It is a rad concept I must say and probably one of my favorite outfits in the series
    12:49 I am of the opposite opinion; I think Jolyne's jacket works super well with the rest of her outfit. It gives her a cool silhouette (at least from what I remember from reading the manga), and I think the simplicity of the solid blue goes well with the patterned material her top and pants are made of, along with the complexity of her hair

    Another amazing video, just like the first one! There are a lot of really cool designs here, and I'm hoping in Part 9 we get some more amazing outfits for women, and honestly I'd love to see more female antagonists with dark and evil designs.
    Some of my absolute favourites here are Ermes, Trish, Tomoko, Yasuho, and obviously Lisa Lisa. Jolyne's as well, but I actually love the way the long flowing grey coat looked on her in the prison, I have a bias towards long coats lol
