The rack comes down at seven.
Everything in the studio is secondhand and stubborn. Marisol sorts it by temperature rather than size, which is why the moss rail and the harbor rail never touch. Scroll on and the floor starts moving.
Runwaylook is the little styling studio on the corner. Garments roll off the overhead rack, you slide the dress form under the ones that belong together, and three neighbors with strong opinions tell you how you did. Layer a hat, a top, a bottom, shoes and one finishing touch before the runway clock runs out.
Slide the dress form left and right. Every garment you catch snaps into its slot. Catch one that fits the theme and the room lifts. Catch a clash and harmony drops, so let those keep falling.

A hat sets the volume, a top sets the mood, the bottom decides whether anyone can walk in it. Shoes and one finishing touch settle the argument. Five pieces, no more, or the look starts shouting.
Teddy runs the fabric stall and notices hems. Nan spent forty years in costume and notices everything else. They are generous, they are specific, and they will remember your best look next week.
Every finished outfit is pressed onto a card with the show it walked, the coordination score and the kindest thing anyone said about it. Your cards stay on this device between visits.
Nothing here is a mystery. Learn the four temperatures and you can read any falling garment in about a quarter of a second, which is roughly what the clock gives you.
Each show names two temperatures it wants. Cream is always welcome as the third.
Arrow keys, A and D, the two pads, or a thumb dragged across the floor. The form follows.
Hat, top, bottom, shoes, finishing touch. Catching a slot twice swaps the piece.
Clashes cost twelve. Letting an on theme piece hit the floor costs four. Zero ends the night.
Three neighbors comment, the card goes in the lookbook, and the next rack rolls out faster.
