- Formal wear made for the Senator of Dahrtag
- Protective and durable
- Blasterproof: As clothing goes, this gown is exceptionally durable against blaster fire in particular, able to withstand even direct hits. It is not indestructible, however—one's best bet for survival if somebody starts shooting is still to run for cover.
- Sleeps With Vibroblades: The gown also boasts some defense against kinetic blows from weapons such as vibroblades, albeit to a lesser extent than energy. It could probably withstand a glancing blow, but a direct hit would be pushing it.
- Waterproof: The fabric has been treated so that it will not retain water (and become heavy) when submerged.
- Fireproof: The gown is resistant to fire damage.
- Pockets: It has pockets on the sides.
- Ionic: The gown has no protection against Ion energy. Stay away from lightning while wearing it.
- Lightsabers: The gown has no real durability against lightsabers.
- Revealing: The gown leaves a fair amount of bare skin exposed. Anywhere that isn't covered up will remain unprotected.
Much to Thelma's delight, the newly elected representative of her homeworld commissioned a set of formal wear for various political functions. The resulting wardrobe is heavily inspired by the popular fashions of Lamont, the capital of Dahrtag.
The first of these outfits is a formal sleeveless gown made from pale green silk. It is decorated with crisscrossing lines of black and gold sequins. A very dark purple satin sash wraps around the top of the bodice; this is paired with dark purple silk opera gloves. The back of the dress features an elaborate art deco diamond shape made with various crystals sewn onto the fabric. The gown is accompanied by a bright pink silk scarf, adding a splash of contrasting color.
