[Well Dressed Filter (Arthur, Parker, Una, Brax (reluctantly), and anyone else who's got fashion sense and shows it. Except Moriarty, because they had a ridiculous fashion bitch-fest earlier.

Clothes. And the acquisition thereof. I tried to ask the Admiral before, but apparently I wasn't specific enough. The resulting garments I was was given...

[He holds up a marching band jacket in one hand and a pair of flower print bell bottoms in the other.]

Unfortunately, I don't know human fashion well enough to know precisely what to ask for.

Well. Clearly we need to find you some suits. And a few more casual pieces as well, perhaps.

I'd advise some plain white dress shirts, perhaps some in Oxford blue as well. [She gives him a thoughtful look.] Two-button suit, I think, one black, one charcoal, one navy-that should cover all possible purposes. Some cashmere sweaters for when it gets cold, in plain colours. Short-sleeved dress shirts and linen trousers for hot weather-again, simple colours like white, cream, or khaki.

[Pause. She realises she's infodumping like crazy.] I'm sorry; I don't mean to overwhelm.

[Narvin is furiously taking notes. This all seems like very good advice, and specific enough that the Admiral couldn't misinterpret with something awful.]

For the sweaters, what colours constitute "plain?" [Forgive him, he's worn nothing but black and white for a very long time.]

For you, I'd recommend charcoal grey or blue. Probably not camel; I don't see that suiting you, exactly. Nothing cable-knit, no Fair Isle-solid colours only.
