#WordWeavers Day 5: How detailed are your descriptions of characters' clothes/looks?
I plan to go for feel, vibe, and meaning more than specific detail. For example, it's important that readers know Margot Chu is short, fat (and yes, more than just "well-padded" or "pleasingly plump") and often wears red clothing and/or accessories in order to picture her, but nothing would be served by giving specific height and weight measurements.
But some details *are* important; see tomorrow...
