A story about fashion with ulterior motives, March 20, 2025
Related reviews: about 2 hours

This was a funny Exceptional Story from Fallen London. Exceptional Stories are paid stories that are more self-contained than most content in Fallen London and take a few hours to complete.

In this story, you've been asked to run a fashion boutique and to come up with different outfits based on increasingly ludicrous themes. As you have no prior experience and the clothing is genuinely kind of questionable, you have to wonder: what are the real motives behind your employment?

Gameplay mostly consists of wandering around London or your workshop to get ideas for the new clothes, plus some investigative sequences.

Overall, it was fun making the outfits (you can choose to keep one if you wish) and the newly revealed plot was fun.
