King Christmas Wawa's December Luster Suit
The word 'Christmas' in King Christmas Wawa's name indicates the feeling that the king was planning something marvelous around the holiday season. The increase in price of the general admission for The Arrival of December hinted at the special occasion. The king would be arriving in his grandest, most heavily decorated suit. The event hyped up Newbeak to the point that citizens purchased admission tickets and then camped in Newbeak Park for days to get the best view of the king. Out of all of the events to date, The Arrival of December was one of the most memorable and glorious occasions in Newbeak's history.
The king arrived on the night of December 27th, bringing an extension to the magic of Christmas to Newbeak. Spectators of the event paid only 45 KCWC to witness the historic appearance of the king in his newest suit. More wealthy citizens even paid for the first V.I.P. seating organized for an event by the army. At last, the doors of King Christmas Wawa's very own armored escort vehicle opened, and the king stepped out in his newly tailored suit. The December Luster Suit seemed to fit its name perfectly, as even the bare fabric of the jacket and cape glittered with the reflection of the lighting in the room.
The December Luster Suit was first given life after being sketched out by the king himself. He claimed that he wanted a suit that was slightly different from his previous designs. He wanted it to be the most impressive and fully-decorated design of all.
Around late November, the December Luster Suit began to take form. It was constructed by a group of experienced suit tailors who were dedicated to sewing all of King Christmas Wawa's newest suits and custom garments. The suit jacket was made first, with a base layer of thick navy blue felt. The exterior layer of the suit is a polyester and spandex fabric, a royal blue satin. This gave the suit its luster, even where gemstones and rhinestones were not present. The suit is also lined with a satin spandex off white fabric.
The jacket, lined with royal blue fabric, is also adorned with many blue and gold-style crystal gemstone charms, including many crystals of white, green, and gold color. These gemstones are highlighted with an underlayer of hundreds of gold rhinestone-mounted crystals. All of the gemstone-decorated seams of the suit are lined with gold-plated Cuban chains. Along the collar of the suit are many metal buttons.
The cape of the December Luster Suit was designed similarly in style to the jacket. The front and back of the cape were padded with felt and lined with satin spandex fabrics. The underside of the cape is made from the same off white colored fabric that lines the suit jacket's interior. The front of the cape is lined with the same royal blue fabric as the jacket. This side of the cape is also covered with crystal gemstones of various colors, including the suit's main theme of navy blue and gold. Both sides of the cape are trimmed with sterling silver-plated Cuban chains. The cape is attached to the suit jacket by gold-plated chains, a technique used for all of the king's capes following the September Flame Suit.
The boot of the December Luster Suit is lined on the interior with the same suit that lines the inside of the jacket as well as the underside of the cape. Instead of using the satin-style royal blue fabric to line the outside, a more coarse fabric that fitted the style of the boot was used. The tailoring team also did not want to use stretchy fabric on both the inside and outside of the boot because they feared this would cause the structural frame to collapse. Along with using a different fabric, the soul of the boot is made of leather and padded with felt. The boot also displays many gemstone charms lining the bottom, which is trimmed with the same gold-plated Cuban chains as the jacket. These chains also separate the boot into four quadrants along the sides to resemble seam designs.
The December Luster Suit cost over $300 (30,000,000 KCWC) to import necessary materials for. This, along with the estimated 60 hours of labor required to make the suit, contributes to a total estimated worth of around $1,000. Considering that King Christmas Wawa's Army sold around 650,000 KCWC worth of tickets as total profit from The Arrival of December, one would assume the cost of the suit would be a debt that would take many events to come to pay off. The reality is that, instead of using government funds to purchase the king's extravagant suits, King Christmas Wawa exports resources to trade for these materials. The king also accepts donations from various donors loyal to his political campaign. This is what allows the king to purchase these lavishly decorated suits for use through the years.
When King Christmas Wawa appeared for The Arrival of December, he quickly realized a major flaw in the design of the suit. During test trials with other water bottles trying on the suit before the king, the army was able to successfully keep the suit standing, even with the cape attached. The problem the army was looking for was that the weight of the cape would make the test bottle fall backwards when wearing it, being that the suit and cape combined weighed around two pounds. The major problem with their successful test is that it was done on flat ground, whereas King Christmas Wawa would be walking on the turf of Newbeak Park, where he would stand above a red carpet. This made it way more difficult for the king to balance the pressure of the suit as centered as possible. In addition to this, while the suit was kept in storage, before being worn for the event, the pressure point created on the back seemed to compress the felt in the area, making an even more exaggerated backwards slope to cause unbalance. With this flaw, the king was actually unable to stand while wearing the cape. Instead, he used extra support pads as well as leverage from WSS officers to help wear the cape during the event. It must have been quite a relief for him to finally take the cape off after its initial display.
The December Luster Suit may have been given an estimated value based on expenses, but the suit itself is priceless due to its significance. The Arrival of December will forever hold a glorious place in the history of Newbeak and King Christmas Wawa's legacy. Today, it is displayed in His Majesty's Newbeak Museum, where it will be kept until worn again by the king. The suit and cape are currently separated to accurately display the artwork on each. These national treasures will forever hold their place as a key symbol of King Christmas Wawa's legacy.
