As seen in the later parts of Promare, the pants have a high waist with a vaguely corset-shaped top.

Unlike the movie, I’ve added a drive-through zip, that lets me use the facilities without entirely removing the pants.

Wig

The original 2020 wig was made from alcohol-thinned paint and desperation. From 2020 on, Lio has a custom-dyed and wefted wig.
