Uniforms

A good-looking man or woman in uniform has no problem geting attention, especially when those uniforms are not the shapeless combat gear of today, but the well-cut garments of yesteryear. These fine unforms accentuated shoulders, a narrow waist and other assets, not to forget an often pleasing color scheme.
We had quite a few chances to see our explorers in uniform. We also had a villain in uniform, the equally evil and dashing Captain Askwith. We are quite sure that the authority with which he wore his fabulous uniform helped him fool the usually alert Miss Krux. So let's take a more detailed look at the uniforms of The Lost World.

Why do we like uniforms? While it's true that they are designed to cover a person's individuality, they are also often fetching in their simplicity and clear lines. A matching hat adds to the size of a person, rendering him or her taller and more impressive. Often the uniform is accompanied by stylish looking boots. It's not an everyday look, but it's a very welcome change to the regular, more casual Plateau style.

Visitors to the Fashion Plateau have requested that we also add those examples of uniforms to the site that were worn in alternate realities. We apologize for the oversight of omission and are happy to comply with the wishes of our esteemed visitors.
