Misused: Winter Royal Lady

Okay, so this part:

The second parenthetical part is inaccurate as a broad generalization. I'm considering what to replace it with:

• "(blue has been associated with the nobility in various times and places)"
  • In the context of the rest of the sentence, would be kind of redundant/repetitive.
• "(popularized by Louis IX of France)"
• remove it

One more thing...

This line is a bit confusing. It sounds like it's referring to upperclass people in general (which is not strictly true, since I doubt that upperclass people are more likely to live in cold areas than middle/lower class people). I also think it's unnecessary. The second paragraph can start from "Because of how ice and snow..."

I'd just remove. I personally think "blue-collar" anyway. White though is definitely something with an upperclass association: The Rich Have White Stuff.

The trope draws from winter-themed royals/nobles (see title), who would live there. I stated earlier that "upperclass people in general" is something I consider included through Tropes Are Flexible, but they are not the main gist of the trope.

Remove the parenthetical part, or the mention of wearing blue entirely?

Alright, done.

The bit in parentheses.

Ah, I see. I still don't see why the quoted line needs to be there though. "Characters wear winter clothing because they live in cold places" seems like an irrelevant tangent, and doesn't really flow well into the next sentence.

The intent was for "dress to fit the part" to segue into "here's the dress code". I'll move the Ice Palace somewhere down below.

Right. Sorry about that.

Anyway, I've changed the Laconic, and rewrote some examples to focus more on the aesthetics. What else needs to be done?

I think that's it.

Okay, time to close.
