Curious question: What type of clothing do you picture Jaime, Cersei and Brienne etc wearing?
I'm by no means an expert in historic fashion, so I'm speaking in generalities and stand to be corrected, but I have seen official art and fanart with clothing styles ranging from around the early 12th Century through to almost Restoration era. Many official pictures do seem to just go LOTR fantasy, but Doug Wheatley's official, illustrations in the later chapters of Fire and Blood take a different track and have the women in clothing that is at least 15th Century Italian Renaissance, if not heading toward Elizabethan.
Obviously, there are limits to real world comparisons - women in Westeros don't seem to have to cover their heads with wimples or headdresses for one. But when you picture the characters in your head, do you see them wearing the clothing of any particular place or era? Or just generic fantasy aka the earlier seasons of the show (the later seasons seem to get a little fashion forward...). What do you think Brienne's famous blue dress looks like? Or Jaime's crimson silk and black satin get up that Jon found it so hard to look away from?
(edited because words and letters jump around for me too...)
