From YKTTW Working Title: Costume Porn
roxana: While it can be overdone it must be confessed that some of us quite like costume and decor descriptions.
Floria: I like them too. If it's historical or speculative fiction, it can be a good way of seeing how much thought the writer's put into world building, as well.
Madrugada Why did you pull the page quote, VB? Yes, it was long. That's part of the point of the trope.
Dragon Quest Z: Probably just too much space, when it's important to get to the description.
