As we step into the autumn and winter of Diamond Tears, the characters' lives and aesthetics reflect the changing seasons and the emotional weight they carry. The cool breeze of the French Riviera sets the tone, as both the beauty of the coast and the chill of the season mirror their personal journeys. Let's explore how these characters' aesthetics evolve in this colder, introspective atmosphere.
Daphne Arnault: Cozy Layers and Quiet Strength 🍂
Aesthetic: Warmth in the chill. Daphne has traded her glamorous past for a simpler, more grounded existence, embracing the quiet strength of her new life. Her style reflects the autumn and winter seasons on the Riviera—cozy sweaters, wool scarves, and comfortable boots.
Colors: Deep burgundy, forest green, soft beige, and charcoal gray.
Vibes: Walking along the promenade with the crisp Mediterranean breeze tugging at her scarf, hands wrapped around a warm coffee mug as she gazes out over the sea. Her quiet moments of reflection often take place near the water, where the waves crash softly against the shore, mirroring the inner turbulence she feels as she rebuilds her life.
Key Items: A thick wool coat, a knitted scarf, and an old journal where she writes her thoughts. A small pendant necklace, a reminder of her past, hidden beneath her layers of warmth.
Music: Soft, acoustic ballads with a haunting edge—reflecting her emotional journey and the solitude of the cooler months.
Riley: Thunderous Beats and Brooding Energy 🌧️
Aesthetic: Moody yet rhythmic. As the drummer of the band, Riley's aesthetic in Diamond Tears is a mix of brooding intensity and raw energy. His style is practical yet rugged, with leather jackets layered over warm hoodies and worn-in jeans. He often walks the quiet streets of Nice late at night after band rehearsals, the cold air helping clear his mind.
Colors: Black, faded denim, deep navy, and stormy gray.
Vibes: The sound of drums reverberating in a quiet room, the crackle of vinyl records playing softly in the background, and the feel of a cold rain on his skin as he steps outside after a late-night gig. His apartment is sparse, filled with music gear and the occasional coffee cup, but his thoughts are heavy—focused on the unresolved tension with Daphne.
