You just have to accept that 10-year olds in Mabi are forever going to look good in everything.
It looks ok for 17-year olds, but you have to dye that robe nicely to get a good effect.
I've seen people use black or white mostly for this robe as one of the colors.
I dyed the owl robe in two different ways, character is 18, and personally find that the blue robe that I have looks better.
