When the final accessory (a 100-carat tiara) for Vil’s red carpet look fails to arrive in time he refuses every alternative that is offered to him, explaining, “my goal here is not to simply garb myself in the finest garments and gems” and telling them to forget jewelry altogether and come up with a new approach.
The shop staff attempt to give up and Vil inspires them to keep trying (“Quite groveling and show me what you can DO!”), but it is ultimately Vil himself who arrives at a solution after Grim accidentally pulls down the curtains of a fitting room on top of himself.
Vil comes up with the idea of turning the curtains into a cape, and then with a theatrical way to debut it, opening an apple-shaped box on the red carpet that lets out a puff of smoke to reveal him dressed in his outfit’s final form (Vil: “Feast your eyes on the fairest in the land!”).
When asked about the outfit he explains that the cape allows his own beauty to shine through, preferable to relying on “gaudy jewelry” to dress things up.
Vil promises Ace fashion advice during his second birthday vignette, providing it during the Tapis Rouge event.
Vil has also given Rook fashion advice in the past, once recommending that he dress up for a play for which he had front-row seats, despite how Rook himself didn’t have any interest in dressing up. Rook explains that Vil gave him wonderful advice and even coordinated his entire ensemble.
Vil explains how he prefers to dress up when he goes to see plays as an audience member, which he considers to be part of the fun of seeing a play: “Getting ready to see a show makes me feel so excited… ‘pumped,’ even.”
