Finally finished my mage set and I am trying to decide what colors to go with!
I usually use dark purple/black like this to match my hetero kite shield:

Should I dye the top part of my robe black and the bottom purple? or vice versa? Which would look better on the robe? What colors should the shoes be? Since you can barely see the gloves and gem in the circlet, I plan to dye them with cheap dull purples.

This^ Although the shoes could look nice in black, too, since the robe's purple will reach near the bottom.

Derp, I thought you were talking about redyeing the first robe for a moment. I was like >_>

But I agree with this.
I don't know about the shoes though. I think they'd look fine either way.

I'd go with the top purple and the bottom black. Since, your main color seems to purple for most of your bases. But the shoes that go with it would probably need to be purple to balance it out a little.
That's kind of why I don't like Hebona Robes sometimes, one part has to be matching with another, or it looks funny, and Hebona is limited to parts. D:

Thanks everyone :)
I am going to follow everyone's advice and go with purple on top and black on the bottom. I still can't decide on the shoes though. I kind of want them purple to balance the outfit, but I'm worried they might be too bright down there.

Have you tried messing with
this character simulator? It helps immensely when trying to get a visual on things like this.

Are they beach sandals? Because if they are, they might look nice with black soles and purple straps.
But if they're some kind of shoes with only one pallet, then I'm thinking black.

They're the hebona shoes. So you would go with black then?

Ah.
Well, looking at the picture more...now I'm leaning more toward purple. XD
I'm so indecisive. If I were you, I'd go make the outfit on the simulator and see which color you like better on the shoes. Because they really can go either way.

I'd go with purple on the shoes.
I've been using a Hebona Robe + Shoes for a while now (without the circlet/gloves though) with a similar colour set as yours, just with white instead of purple. The main thing is that nearly all of the bottom of the robe is black, so the purple will balance it out.

I think the shoes should be purple. It'll balance out more.
Edit: Ugh, nanja'd. But yeah.
