Summary
One fashion-forward fan of the hit Nintendo seriesAnimal Crossinghas shared images of two outfits they created that capture the clothing styles of Isabelle and Tom Nook. While theAnimal Crossingseries boasts hundreds of villagers that can potentially join players' islands, no one comes out of the most recent games in the series without interacting with these two iconic characters.
Both characters have a long history with theAnimal Crossinggames and have built up sizable fan bases with their numerous appearances. In particular,Isabelle has been a popularAnimal Crossingcosplaychoice since her debut inAnimal Crossing: New Leaf, where she served as the mayor’s secretary, carrying out several essential daily duties for managing the town and organizing all the special events.
The two outfits shared by Reddit user mayalcaulfield show two distinctly different styles, but the clothing combinations match the in-game visuals of Isabelle andTom Nook fromAnimal Crossing: New Leafalmost perfectly. Isabelle’s outfit is based on her original fall and winter look, featuring a mustard cardigan over a white frilly blouse and red ribbon, while the Tom Nook look is simpler, featuring a red tie underneath a green sweater vest. The creator doesn’t technically refer to either of the images as a cosplay, and none of the anthropomorphized animal qualities are present in either outfit, save for the first one’s wig being styled to match the design of Isabelle’s droopy shih tzu ears. Instead, they refer to the looks as “real-world outfits,” and while mostAnimal Crossingfans would be able to identify their inspiration in a heartbeat, they also look like something that could be worn in a casual setting.
Animal Crossing Fan Creates Everyday Fashions Based on Characters
In addition to sharing the images of these two outfits, this fashionable player has experience creating anotherAnimal Crossing-based outfit. The creator shared abonus imageshowing their everyday outfit forAnimal Crossing’s Mr. Resetti, the ill-tempered mole who lectures players for shutting off the game without saving. Featuring a yellow hat, denim overalls, and a white polo, the look does match the grumpy mole, though the accompanying tool bag really nails down where the inspiration comes from.
These aren’t theAnimal Crossingfan’s only fashion creations that they’ve made. They’ve also shared images of outfits based on Padme Amidala from theStar Warsfranchise and four characters fromGossip Girl, as well as a suit of samurai armor made out of recycled goods, to name just a few. Their artistic skills don’t end with fashion, either, as they’ve also hand-crafted some miniatureKoroks fromThe Legend of Zeldagames to hide around their home.
