Prestige level 2

Unlocks when your prestige reaches 2. Every fabric in the game unlocks on prestige; none of them come from a character's relationship ladder.

Style scores

Raises 9 styles and lowers 0.

Fabric style scores add to the final style of your dress together with its patterns and accessories. A negative weight is a contribution too: cloth that lowers Formal is exactly what a brief asking for low Formal wants. How far it moves the score also depends on which part of the dress carries it.

Commissions where Grey-Dient Silk can help

Dresses the game itself validates with this fabric, and the requirement of each brief that the fabric answers.

No validated dress in this build is sewn from Grey-Dient Silk. Rather than list the briefs that would merely allow it, here is where its material, colours and styles are actually asked for.

Briefs that name what this fabric is

The commission board already indexes Grey-Dient Silk's material, colours and styles, so each of these opens on the briefs that ask for one of them.

Silk requirements

Briefs that ask for a share of Silk in the dress. Any Silk cloth contributes — none of them names this fabric.

Style requirements

Briefs that ask for the styles this fabric moves. Moving a style is a contribution, not a guarantee.

Material and colour requirements are measured as a share of the finished garment, so the same cloth on a larger part counts for more than it does on a collar.

Check what a dress costs and whether it passes, before you spend the fabric.
