In Class Writing 4.14

          Ti Moune is a person with dualities, she lives in the village, but she always dreams to live in the city. In this way, she is an outsider in the village, so her costume will be similar to the normal villagers in outlook, but has many differences in details.
          Firstly, I think the normal villager will dress simply. Their cloth will in brown colors, like having mud from the farming. Because the villagers are the poor people, their dress will not be fancy, the made-up for their clothing will be cheap cloth material. Their clothes will not look comfortable to wear, but suitable for farming in the lands. To indicate the poor of them, there can also be some patches on their cloth.
          On the other hand, Ti Moune should have a similar dress like villagers. But she has a dress which other women in the village does not.  One thing I like to make Ti Moune difference is by letting other village women wear pants which will help them in farming, but let Ti Moune wearing a dress. This can show how Ti Moune dislikes the basic life in the village and show her desire of having a better life. Also, Ti Moune's dress will have pitches, but those pitches are decorated by Ti Moune which looks more natural and good looking. I want those pitches to show that Ti Moune spends some time in thinking to make herself different from others. This fits with the book that she has the desire to be beautiful and leave the village. The overall color of Ti Moune' dress will be similar to the villagers, which will have a brown color and looks dirty. This will show Ti Moune is actually one of the villagers, whatever she does to changes the details like her outlook, the inside of her will still be a poor peasant. Lastly, there can be some symbol of the butterfly which also indicate Ti Moune' desire on her dress.
           In conclusion, the main idea of Ti Moune's dressing will show her desire. Showing she has a similar outlook of cloth with the villagers but has differences in detail will be a good idea. Especially for the audiences, it is easier to Ti Moune has a dress which different from other villagers.
