King Christmas Wawa's Rhinestone Uniform
In July 2024, King Christmas Wawa contracted a team of newly skilled tailors to develop his first fully hand-sewn, decorated uniform. Prior to this, the king's team of dressers only had experience making suits that were partially sewn but mainly held together with adhesive fabric glue. During the constructive build-up of tactical equipment and combat gear, the army had little to no time to make a quality, sewn uniform. The idea of creating a hand-sewn suit was suggested to the king, which sparked his interest. The king himself did not come up with the idea of the suit; rather, Commanding General Beakmen described in detail the design of the suit. And so it was made.
The suit cost a total of around $100 in imported supplies, and cost the army a total of $150 to produce. It was made from various layers of cotton fabric and felt. Perhaps the most expensive part of the suit is its cape, which was bejeweled with many crystal and metal button shanks, as well as rhinestones. The cape was hung from the suit by attached strings that hung on buttons on the suit. The suit jacket has a low collar covered all around with rhinestones. The jacket has chains hanging from the bottom, and would later have decorated metal pins placed on the back. The boot was made with a felt soul and gold-colored braided trim in patterns. The front middle vertical line includes set rhinestones. The suit does not have a set estimate value, as it has been valued at around $170 all the way to $1,000 due to its historical significance with King Christmas Wawa. In July 2024, the suit was packaged onto a truck and sent from Newbeak to King Christmas Wawa's military installation.
While the king had returned from a conference in Newbeak, he remained in his royal escort vehicle. When the king headed back to his main estate, he was greeted by both colonels of his two regiments, along with a truck containing the newly made suit. The king tried the suit on in a photoshoot and then wore the garment back to his mansion. Documentation claims that the king wore this suit for at least two weeks after this, before putting it back to wear his army uniform. King Christmas Wawa continued to have this suit on display on the floor below his state conference room for a few months.
Eventually, the king's tailoring unit was able to manufacture a variety of custom-designed suits for each month of the year, starting in September. With all of these new suits needing to be situated formally, the king decided to occupy a neighboring building to his officer deck in Newbeak. The building was originally topped with a large fish tank. When the tank was removed from the site, the army created a partial museum to display the king's assets. These included the new Rhinestone Uniform and its cape. The two were displayed in an acrylic case on the wall of the new museum.
After the king complained about his dissatisfaction with wearing the suit when he claimed that he preferred a higher collar design, it was believed that this suit would have only ever been worn once by the king. The king was never publically seen in his Rhinestone Suit, and it was only ever documented by his military staff who witnessed it. To this day, only several photographs taken in July when the suit was made show the king himself wearing the suit. It now resides on the upper floor of the Newbeak Museum, where it will most likely only be viewable by King Christmas Wawa and his top military officials. Whether or not the suit will ever be publically on display at the museum remains a mystery, but it remains as one of the most historically valuable assets of the king's collection
