Bound for Fashion

The official GemStone IV encyclopedia.
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Similar to laceable attire, Bound for Fashion items allow one to mix and match gowns or shirts with corsets or cinchers by WRAPing them. Items must maintain a base description and cannot handle a long description or show description due to the nature of the items. They can also be worn separately. Wrapping can be done while the cincher is in hand or worn, however, when UNWRAPed, the cincher will remain worn in the inventory until removed. When items are wrapped, neither can be removed until they are unwrapped.

Chest worn

Analyze

You analyze your berry silk gown and sense that the item is largely free from merchant alteration restrictions, but the creator has stated that "The item has restrictions on changing the noun."

The creator has also provided the following information:

The berry silk gown is meant to be wrapped by an accessory.  The gown can be altered into a ballgown, bliaut, blouse, cotehardie, dress, gown, robe, shirt, surcote, or tunic.  The gown cannot have a long or show description.

The gown is not currently wrapped by an accessory.

To wrap this gown with an accessory, use WRAP gown WITH {accessory}
To unwrap the accessory from this gown, use UNWRAP gown WITH {accessory}

You get no sense of whether or not the gown may be further lightened.
