the second one, is a gown inspired on the english and french victorian dresses in the colors of orlais (gold, beige, and blue) and everyone wanted to have a ball gown for their female characters (:

I feel so awful for putting Vivienne into that awful uniform. She at least should be allowed to fetch something from her wardrobe!

I think that was exactly the point. You're representing the Inquisition, nothing more, nothing less. The Inquisition is a brand-new faction that is not beholden to any one country. Thus, the clothing at the ball had to be symbolically neutral. After all, when playing the Game, everything has meaning, especially the clothes one wears. If the Inquisition wore Orlesian garb, then the Orlesians would see that as the Inquisition positioning themselves as conciliatory to the court. If they wore Fereldan or Qunari or Dalish clothes, then it would be interpreted as the Inquisition planning on pushing for the interests of those factions. Thus, they had to have an outfit that would both represent the Inquisition as an independent faction and symbolize what the Inquisition is about.

 

In contrast to all of the flamboyance of Orlesian dress, the Inquisition chose to come in no-nonsense dress uniforms, subtly indicating that while they're there to participate in the Game they are not participating in Orlesian excesses, and are there for a larger purpose. Plus, while most Orlesians wear individually-tailored gowns and suits, reflecting their own personalities and political position (just think back to Leli's analysis of shoes), every member of the Inquisition wears the exact same outfit. The message is that these are not individuals, but followers of the Inquisitor, and that they stand together for the Inquisition's goals. It's a sign of group solidarity in a place where the name of the Game is to elevate yourself by throwing everyone else under the bus.

 

 

This is exactly why I liked the idea of having everyone in the same uniform, but I would of LOVED if we would of had 3-4 choices to pick from in terms of the uniform.  I agree with the poster that mentioned they wanted something more Tywin Lannister, less wedding Prince William. It is still a powerful moment walking into the ball as a unified front for the Inquisition in an environment where everyone is trying to hard to stand out and be an individual. Overall I'm not heartbroken either way.

 

Now the Skyhold outfit is a whole other ball of wax. I hate judging people in that awful outfit, I wish we could just wear our armor. I fail to see any good reason that we are subjected to that beige poc.

Remain filled with righteous hate, Dazzle!

We shall not be beaten by such an upstart circle mage!

 

 

Disclaimer: I AM actually joking. Vivienne's not my favorite, but I won't hate on her. I'm better than all the Sera haters, see?

All inquisition members wearing dress uniform would be fine if this had actually been established in game as the inquisition's dress uniform. But it never shows up anywhere else. E.g. it could have been used for the inquisitor's inauguration scene, or for judgments, whatever. As it is, the uniforms comes out of nowhere and disappears, never to be seen again. So yeah, why can't I wear a dress? And put on some makeup for the occasion?

 

On a side note: it would have been too funny to have an option "dance clumsily". I can just imagine the scene with Josie trying to teach my Cadash dance steps - no way.

Aside to the aside: Kudos to the animators for some pretty good Vienna waltz steps there!

I think the military dress uniform serves the purpose reasonably well when the Inquisition needs to present itself in a formal and, well, uniform way (I agree with Eshamae though that it should be established in game and appear in other scenes), and Leliana and Josie look dashing in a hot chick in men's suit kind of way, but my female Dalish inquisitor looks tragically like a servant in a livery (and I really hate it when she has to dance in that outfit with Florianne).

Well, a Dalish Inquisitor is mistaken for a servant at least once...

 

And called a Rabbit more times than she should be. Still, Arianne handled it!
