oblivion vampire lore: clavicus vile bestowed the vampires of cyrodiil with the ability to completely conceal their vampiric features and they are indistinguishable from normal people
High Rock’s fashion has been hidden away from the world in general, a couple eras have passed since the other provinces have shared their ideas of attire and the bretons are always leading by example.
In Evermore, specifically, there is a strong influence of Hammerfell trade, with intricate silk jackets and tailored shapes to slim the figure. There is no specific role of dress for any gender, androgyny and ambiguity is not unheard of or treated differently.
First you have the lower class, working class, or travelers attire. Those that hunt, fight, or work tend to wear tougher clothes or sew together scraps. Sometimes the bohemian fashion is a choice and not a sole means to cover one’s body. Travelers and styles from Hammerfell are common in Evermore.
The Knights of Saint Pelin also prefer a lighter design in current years over wearing full plate armor.
Masculine fashion has a very close relation to the Bankori area. Overcoats are numerous and popular among the upper class in style similar to Weyrest’s coattails and Sentinel’s knee long silk jackets. Bretons appreciate vibrant colors and patterns, but Evermore might prefer more neutral or desaturated tones. High Boots and slacks are far more common then tights, but there are an eccentric few that prefer older trends.
Effeminate fashion is by far the most progressive, with bustle skirts and bodices. A brave few will endure a tight-fitting corset but many prefer the comfort of a long dress with plenty of frills. Dresses can range from being rather plain to outrageously ostentatious. Some say the most popular designers got their inspiration from scrying into the Shivering Isles. That’s a joke….mostly.
None of these designs are my own! They are just an example to use to fit certain styles. It is a nightmare to credit it all but if you can message me for the source I can provide what I can. If you are the owner or photographer to one of these outfits and want it removed I’m more then welcome to remove it!
I own all the rights to Evermore and the Bangkorai region ask ZoS. I don’t make the rules I just enforce them. (I mean JK I just really love Evermore and I am actually working on an interactive text game based in 4th era Bangkorai)
If you guys want any more headcannons on Evermore in any era shoot me an ask!

Headcanon:
Baby Khajit are often mistaken for kittens and small cats, so they would accidentally be adopted by loving humans, who soon freak out when the cat fucking talks back.
SO…
‘who ish the cutesht of them all??’
‘I am’
Now that would be a story for the ages.
Fun fact: Every form of feline in the Elder Scrolls series is actually a breed of Khajiit. Apparently what form of Khajiit you’re born as is defined by the cycle of the moons
OMG WHERE DID THIS CHART COME FROM ITS GREAT I LOVE IT
Well, not EVERY feline, there are cats who are genuiely cats. However, some khajiit really do resemble housecats. Other resemble tigers. And others resemble mer (bosmer, more specifically.)
imagine being the oldest child but you’re a fucking housecat
The ones that look like ordinary housecats are naturally incredibly gifted with magic. Like, more powerful than Altmer. There are horror stories from people who tried to invade Elsweyr only to discover fireballs raining down on them from the highest branches of the trees, where even Bosmer can’t climb. Those really big ones meanwhile are referred to as “battlecats” and carry other warriors into combat. Every single one of them has at least human level intelligence.
And yeah which one you’re born as depends on the phases of the moons when you’re born, so a family will usually be a random scattering of types. Kind of like how the birthsigns work, except instead of ‘you run a little faster’ or ‘you have a little more magic’ the result is ‘you grow up to be a fucking tiger’.
There are reasons I really want the next elder scrolls game to be set in Elsweyr.
