Bab 229: Eulogy of the Prince 31

After my supposed father left the room, few servants and maids entered the room and bowed to me, they were all dressed quite uniquely, they were topless, the man wore a knee length pants and the woman wore a long skirt and a piece of long cloth wrapped around their chest, so they covered their chest like that. It was totally outrageous in Golden Camellia to wear something like this.

In Golden Camellia, a peasant should at least be wearing a long tunic, and the woman wore a long dress to cover their body. The only body parts for women that were allowed to be shown are neck and shoulders. It was the unspoken etiquette, or else, you would be seen as a whore or debauched man or woman.

I remembered that Milord often wore an almost see through shirt, which was quite outrageous for a noble man, especially a high aristocrat like Milord, because it showed fragility. Sometimes, if one observed his clothing attentively, they could even see the skin beneath his cloth.
