What does this accessory help with?
Five answers, all of them read from this decoration's own row in the game data.
Good for
The styles it raises, strongest first. Placing several of them is not the same as multiplying this number.
What does it count as?
The rules a brief can hold this decoration against, named the way the brief names them.
Counts toward
A brief asks for a number of these, and every one you place counts.
Count and length are different things: placing three buttons counts three buttons, while a length of trim is measured along the edge it runs down. This one is counted per decoration.
How accessories workPlacement & cost
How this decoration goes onto a dress, and what the game charges for it.
- Placement
- Individual decorationPlaced one at a time.
- Cost
- 40 eachOne price for every one you place, whether it is the first on the dress or the tenth.
- Counted as
- One accessory per decorationEach one you place is another accessory on the dress, which is what a count rule reads.
Whether a brief counts pieces or measures a length decides which of these matters, and the two are never added together.
Style contribution
The weights this decoration declares, strongest first.
Bars are drawn against the strongest contribution any accessory declares, so two bars in this list mean the same thing.
Several accessories pulling at the same style do not simply add up: after the first, each further accessory contributes less. The number above is this decoration on its own.
How style scores workEvery accessory you place also counts toward the dress's Elaborate score, whatever styles it declares.
