    Loved it! Who knew there were so many clothing items that can be clued in not-clothingy ways
    • lbray53 3s · 2023-12-31T13:37:23.970Z
      Well fashioned.

            Excellent debut. And great clueing. Now I have to go look up Loki.
            • Alex Sisti 3s · 2023-12-31T15:22:40.482Z
              Nice debut... can't wait to see more!

                  Wow, great clues!
                  • michaelm 🤓13:35 · 2023-12-31T15:54:51.550Z
                    Great Title! Excellent diversion in the clues. Wish I had dressed up for this SSS. Thanks and hope to see more!
                    • Hector 🤓6:21 · 2023-12-31T15:39:43.137Z
                      Very fun, with many easter-eggy things. Happy New Year, all!
                      • Mwoychick 🤓8:41 · 2023-12-31T16:41:54.746Z
                        Thanks for the puzzle and congrats on your debut - well done & a fun solve
                        • hoover 2s · 2023-12-31T17:26:42.724Z
                          Nice! I saw SKIRT/SUIT as I was filling out the grid, and MAKEUP and BLAZER and LOAFERS when I got to them, but I didn't catch the others until I went hunting for them for the meta after the fill. I do feel a bit underdressed in my grubby jeans.
                          • KayW 🤓6:20 · 2023-12-31T17:42:13.604Z
                            Excellent debut - fun theme and well done disguising the themers. Thanks!
                            • woozy 🤓44:17 · 2023-12-31T18:49:06.282Z
                              I have to apologize. You asked me to test this and then christmas came and ... I utterly dropped to ball. But it looked like Cap'n Rick did a fine job testing. I especially like the change of the prompt. The current one seems a more natural and relevant to the theme and meta.
                              It's a nice and clean puzzle and I did enjoy it a lot.
                              • fivehalves constructor · 2024-01-01T03:00:22.313Z
                                No worries! Glad you had fun

                                      Nice debut, I like your "style". Great fill and cluing.

                                          Nice one. The title, mechanism, and answer form a stylish ensemble. Keep 'em coming.
