Okay I have discovered photos of Japan's production of Natasha, Pierre, and the Great Comet of 1812 and

Don't mind me, I'm just over here crying over how pretty those costumes are

I mean

Just look at that lightly layered skirt! So simple yet so elegant!

That wrap over the shoulders! That detail in the bodice!!

Those sleeves! They're perfect for this setting and time period!!

That gorgeous color! Those adorable gloves!

Those barely noticeable stripes at the bottom of the skirt! Look at how loose and flowy the skirt is! Look at that neckline!!!

Look at that collar! It sparkles! That fur!! Those sleeves are so regal!

This... this costume is my favorite. Just... that detail in the pattern. That little bit of fur at the elbows. How you can barely see where those black mesh gloves start. That neckline is so fascinating to look at!! That detail!!!!

Just look at that jewelry! There's so much going on with this costume and yet it's so symmetrical that it's pleasing to look at. Also that hair?? That hair is one of the most spectacular things I have ever seen before in my life, no joke.

So yeah, I guess you could say that I like these costumes. I guess.
