Pure awesomeness goes without saying, but I'm talking about the material us mortals used to try and appease her

The first time I ever saw it I thought it was suede... but later I thought it was something with "fur" (perhaps velvet) which gives it that sheen you mentioned... I can't imagine cotton being used for something like that, and any of the other materials I can think of are too shiny and are terrible for that kind of activity... but I don't know vinyl from my cousin vinny

Honestly dude, my material knowledge is just this: cotton shrinks in the dryer.

BOOM. I know, it's a mind blasting insight right?

Yeah, my inclination is to think velvet. I'd love to think it is velvet, a luxurious material befitting it's wearer and the presentation. Maybe it is. She really liked the outfit at first. Maybe that's partially why. It may have been tight, but it sure fit her fabulously.

Yea... I've often thought (bear with me for a second) if I moved my hand upwards it would be a dull black, and downwards the little fibers would look dark grey

Of course, if I was moving my hand up and down across her in that outfit, killing me here, I can't imagine wanting to care about the fibers. Dude. You are cracking me up here.
