League Goes Boho

"The new League stuff says your name all over it, btw", I was told by a friend a couple of days ago.
And she was, obviously, totally right. 
Nena Janus has just released two sets of nomad inspired skirts, patterned or in plain colors, and a set of gypsy tunics, which are a must have for every bohemian wardrobe. 
They are available in single colors or patterns, or in fatpacks (a fatpack for each style), avoiding you the trouble of picking.

I want to spend a couple of words on the skirts, which hit my heart not only because they are amazingly beautiful, but also because they are absolutely *wearable*, something that is not always granted when dealing with sculpted skirts of that kind. 

I really appreciated, in the League's Nomad Skirts, the choice of keeping a system layer that matches the pattern or the color, together with other prim attachments on upper and lower legs to enhance the "wholeness" of the skirt, instead of the alpha layer. (While the alpha layer is a good tool to hide hips in case of impossible fits, in my opinion it should never go under the avi's knees: seeing a foot appearing from nowhere, as if it was detached from the rest of your body, when walking or moving, it's something I can't stand.)
That being said, the designer's advice is wearing the skirts with a calm AO (not many pirouettes and such) to achieve the best visual effect. 
Last but not least, the fit was amazingly easy even on my out of average shape - I usually have many troubles in the waist-hips-butt zone.

Now, I'll let the clothes themselves speak.
