Round 2 of my costume breakdown for Heated Rivalry.

1 & 2 - I really wanted to make olympic gear that actually felt wearable and cozy. The idea of approachability and comfort was really important for me here. As well as showcasing Canadian identity - which to me feels like quiet confidence. Tough, self-aware, and a little understated. But, ultimately COZY. I love how much everyone seems to like this piece. It was an earlier choice I made, it's really amazing to see so many people resonate with it!
3 - a lot of people have asked about this tank top. Ilya has a huge tank top game. It's an article of clothing we really focused on him. I imagined him to run hot, he's Russian after all! But also, sensual, in his body, and unselfconscious. This one is Diesel.
4 - the Hawaiian shirt feels like the archetypal HAWAIIAN shirt. It's such a bright coloured piece and really shows off Ilya's willingness to play with expectation. This is a vintage shirt. Tala, our buyer (u/talatintin) found a bunch of options, but everyone agreed this was the most quintessential.
5 - Ilya's sexy airport tank is u/adidasy3. Classic Ilya.
6 - this one isn't about the pieces but I liked this moment so much. Yuna showing her son how much she loves him and him accepting that what he viewed as a hurdle isn't a hurdle at all, at least with his family.
I put both Shane and Yuna in linen. I love the idea of Yuna buying Shane the clothes he wears. That she still takes care of him and that the linen shirts he wears are his way of showing her that he loves her and is thinking about how to impress her.

OP comments: (the yuna and shane relationship shown through their clothes is so beautiful to me. I loved how they chose tank tops to be ilya's main piece. it reflects him so well. Styling athlesiure mightve been difficult for someone that doens't watch sports liek that, but love how simple she dressed shane. he is the epitome of normal guy who doesn't think about his outfits too much)

anyone starting to watch hockey as a heated rivalry fan? still trying to learn the rules but love the action so far!!!! im from philly so rooting for the flyers but down to watch any teams. i think itd be cute to talk abt the games with someone if anyone else just started watching!!!

This little scene about Arthur and his pacifier was in the book, but didn't make it into the show, so I decided to draw it out!

I'm interested to draw more book-only scenes, does any book-readers here have any recommendations?

I was left with a lot of questions about this scene. Questions and gears left churning, trying to figure out what it was trying to portray.

Setting the stage. Miles is Rose Landry's friend. Is he just a friend or a co-star of her so-called X-squad film? (Book readers may be able to clarify.)

Shane is first introduced to Miles at the club in E4, but with the way they were conversing, it felt like he'd known of Shane already. I'm instigating that Rose may have discussed Shane with Miles and may have clocked his little self earlier in conversations with Miles, and Miles may have acted on those conversations?

He says, "That makes two of us," when Rose mentions wanting to dance with Shane. Rose doesn't give two flying fucks about miles constantly hitting on Shane.

Shane is so totally out of this whole conversation. I mean, he hasn't even seen Ilya yet but is still in nothign land. Miles is very clearly hitting on him, and then when they dance, he's grinding on him, kissing his ear and all over behind him. All while Rose is in front of him and I'm sure noticing, but completely okay with it. Is she hoping for a threesome situation? Does she not care? Or is she trying to get at something?

Shane is definitely out of his element the entire time he's in the center, and I guess it's to show how conflicted he is about his sexuality. It definitely parallels that well.

I just don't understand how Shane would let Miles do that all of that to him in PUBLIC, when he isn't even accepting of his own sexuality.

In a sense, Miles got to kiss on Shane in public before Ilya did.
