Ever since Isabela this word strikes fear in the hearts of men.

The CE edition doesn't make my eyes burn as much as the original.

That I could imagine her wearing professionally.

The blue one though...meh. [/quote]

Bleeding out of my eyes and nose vs just my eyes?

There's still bleeding going on:(

could be worse though.

She could be wearing Miranda's original outfit.

Shhhh! They'll hear you and think that's a brilliant idea!

It's not a skirt, it's a long jacket. Indiana Jones has one.

I still can't figure why people don't see that. 

It's reminiscient of a skirt.  I believe it's actually longer than the Alliance dress blue jackets.

She looked ugly in the first game, much better now tbh

   

she was ugly as hell in ME 1 and a stuk up ****** in ME 2 . maybe her stuck up ass attitude has changed 

You got all that from the 20 seconds you saw her on horizon?? B/c let's face it, we all know you didn't listen to the dialogue... you skipped it. 

That and everything in ME1 as well, if I were to guess.

I think it's quite clear it's intended to invoke the impression of a miniskirt -- given the combination with thigh-high "boots" and even the imitation of garter belt on the underlying layer between these pieces.

[Sgt Stryker]

So what if it "invokes the impression" of something? What you see is what you get, and I see a long jacket.

If it invokes the impression, it means the design is such it can be interpreted in more than one way. And so where you see a long jacket, someone else will see a miniskirt.

Or to put it differently, there's plenty existing female military uniforms out there which include a long jacket, but manage to stay clear from looking like anything else. That this one doesn't, it'd be naive to believe this is entirely unintentional.

I would not have as much problems with the "jacket" if it weren't for everything that's below it. In combination it just looks damn weird.

So you see a jacket and insist on seeing a skirt?  Right, you do that.

No, i see a jacket which combined with the rest of the uniform looks like a miniskirt. And yes, whether you don't see the similarity doesn't change that.

It evokes a microskirt, like a skirted jacket is meant to evoke a miniskirt.

In other words, the function of an outfit isn't always congruous with the intention of its design. So you could choose to see either, or both, if you wanted. It's more objective if you recognize both, though.

 You see, while looking at this I can totally see the jacket...



...and here is where one might stop thinking jacket:



As far as I'm concerned the second part makes the whole "uniform" more than a little less serious than I'd wish for. What is this, and why? And I find this version less stupid looking than the standard blue/white one.

I for one would want the female military characters in my somewhat serious sci-fi stories to look different. Just imagine the BSG uniforms would continue Ash style and tell me that would be fine:




edit:

If anyone wants to argue that ME is meant to be less serious than BSG because it has a race of hot blue lesbian alien wizards and such, you're welcome I guess...

Like, say Systems Alliance uniforms...

Edit:  Compare, who looks more like they're wearing a jacket, and who's wearing a miniskirt and thigh-high boots:



Heck which one just plain looks more ready to give a presentation to important Alliance/Council officials?

Seriously, this picture says it all imo.

[Lord Zeel]

I can't believe this foolishness is still going on. Didn't the mod tell you guys, she GAINS armor throughout the game? What else is there to harp about?

Mercy. Let this die, damn it.

[capn233]

To be fair, in that scene Ash had just returned from an undercover assignment as a call girl.

datz nasty n mean but hella hawt tbh

I honestly don't get the skirt complaints.

1. A skirt is totally removable and that is a long jacket with pants leggings with high boots over top. It is not a separate piece by any stretch.

2. She isn't even exposing any of her gams so the legitimacy of any gripes is seriously lacking in justification. It isn't sexy in the least.

I suppose one could use the "little black dress" term to refer to it instead, but then of course someone is bound to object how the outfit isn't black...

Where did you get this (with this res and quality)? Can you PM the link?

[AdmiralCheez]

Maybe the white tights are less about sex appeal and more like a Robin Hood homage.



Manly as hell.

[Harmless Citizen]

Whether it's a jacket, skirt, or tunic, it's eye-searingly ugly and difficult to take seriously. I imagine these are the main complaints.
