I guess from now on, the folks who work at Carnation Cafe, Blue Ribbon Bakery, and Gibson Girl will all be wearing the same outfit.

    This is different from before, where they all had their own separate outfits. Coke Corner also has a new outfit which looks surprisingly like the ODV outfits.

    Long story short: I absolutely hate how the costumes are just becoming more and more generic now. I hate the idea of "area" costumes instead of having specific outfits for every place. I will miss the mint colored skirts and vests of the Gibson Girl Ice Cream Parlour, one of the only places where one could wear mint and not feel out of place. I certainly hope that the Plaza Inn hasn't been affected by this.

    What a stupid decision. Maybe if the wardrobe department hadn't lost so much money giving away their costumes, they would be able to afford unique outfits.

    Blech.
