Hey, it’s another thing that’s been on my to do list for literal years! I’ve wondered for a long time if the brand Takuya Angel was an inspiration for the ravekimono outfit from NL, realistically I reckon not or at least not directly as the styles are pretty different, but the concept always made me think of it.

So this project was originally conceived as a texture default, but morphed into a meshing project! I wanted to combine the essence of Takuya angel styling with elements of the rave kimono outfit… which turned out to be much more complicated than I’d anticipated and resulted in me texturing, completley reconstructing, and then retexturing the mesh a couple of times. After hammering away, I came up with something I’m actually really happy with! Again it’s maxis parts, the original shoes from the ravekimono outfit, the sleeves from Rented-space’s two-sleeved edit, a bit of jacket pinched from BG, the party dress, and a bit of the tiered dress from the S2S asian fusion set- it all ended up at 2636 polys. The textures are also based on maxis parts, using the male hakama outfit and the fabric texture from the rave kimono outfit notably, in combination with photo elements.

A lot of the stylistic inspiration came from a group picture from the defunct site Japanese Streets featured in this Dutch article, but also I had my FRUiTS books and some other J-fashion & Kawaii books to hand for reference photos, and the brand tag on Tokyo Fashion. I didn’t want to straight up copy any of Takuya Angel’s designs, but retain a bit of maxis flair, so the name of this set just refers to the root inspiration! ᓚ₍ ^ · v · ^₎

I made 3 sets of recolours:

Three colours inspired by the original colour palette of the rave kimono outfits. The pattern is japanese clouds referencing the pattern on the rave kimono obi. These ones are the ones used in the rave kimono default replacment, but the custom versions are also in the files, marked as RK. I made my NL rave kimono hair texture defaultto match these, with the same pattern, though by merit of being made to match the original colour palletes of the outfit they do alsoo match the original outfits aha.

Five recolours using the Sakura Origami patterns by Shishi2011 on DA which I love and have used many times! These ones are marked as sakura.

Four solid recolours to round em out, for completion’s sake. The colours are a combination of Aelia’s and Kinu’s

I also put together a recolour PSD for recolourists!

Availible standalone or repo to AF, meshes included and compressorized.
