Private Gothic Modeling

Meeting that cute feline girl at the bar the other day had given Drago some ideas, and he had whipped up few very nice prototypes for new kinds of accessories that very same evening. Now he had the polished and finished versions and they were ready for mass production. But first Drago would post them up in the shop as limited edition, see how much pull there would be and go from there. Running a business had really been a lot of trial and error, but Drago thought he might finally be getting the hang of it.
And now, all he needed was a feline assistant to test out these products.

As if reading his mind Drago's doorbell rang and he smiled a bit to himself. Shiro was one of the greatest fans of his clothes, had been for a while, and Drago had made his fair share of clothes for the girl. With an affordable friend discount, of course. What better model for the new merchandise? Especially since Drago still couldn't quite afford professional models for all his clothes.
Drago walked over to the door and was almost immediately enveloped into a hug after opening it.
"Never too early to see you, hon."
Drago answered with a small grin that showed the tips of his fangs.

"I'll show you what I have for you, I think you might like it. Come here."
Drago beckoned with his finger and lead Shiro into the workshop and then further into the smaller space at the back. The workshop had originally just been one big space, but there were space dividers and fake walls here and there to mark different smaller sections. The space Drago lead Shiro in was separated from the rest of the workshop with a black velvet curtain.

In Drago's own personal "creative space", as he liked to call it, there was a table with 6 different small accessories, 3 meant for tails and 3 meant for ears. Drago walked over and lifted the first one on the left and showed it to Shiro. It was a three-layer bow made from leather, silk and lace, light purple, silver and black in colour scheme. The bow was attached to an adjustable band that was lined with metal studs and some more silver embroidering.
"This is an accessory for a tail, can be used for pretty much any tail but probably suits smooth and relatively thin tails the best. Kind of like yours."
Drago smiled a bit, and showed how the band could be adjusted.
"Also works as a bracelet or anklet, but I designed it so the rubber guards inside the band keep it from slipping off even the slipperiest of tails."

As Shiro put the bow on Drago looked closely how easy it would be, and once it was on the stepped close and if Shiro let him he tugged on the bow a bit to see how well it stayed in place. Once he was done Dragomir flashed Shiro a wide smile and nodded.
"It looks great on you, hon. Though for it to be completely your colour scheme I'd have to replace the silver with gold, to match your eyes."
Dragomir said thoughtfully, perhaps he could add more colour options if the product was popular.

"And stop that edginess nonsense, you of all people should know that goth is about much more than that."
Dragomir said jokingly and laughed a bit. He stepped away and gestured for the black backdrop he had set up on one of the walls.
"You know the drill. Just stand in front of that and I'll take few pictures. Your outfit right now is good, since the focus will be on the accessory."
Dragomir said and picked up the camera he had on one of the tables. He was really grateful he'd taken several photography courses, he didn't have to pay for a professional photographer to take the pictures.

"Your best feature is the one that makes you feel like a queen, kitty."
Dragomir said with a small grin and a playful wink, and then proceeded to observe Shiro testing out how the ribbon held. Yes, looked like Dragomir had chosen the right materials, the tail didn't look weighed down and the ribbon didn't look out of place.

Dragomir didn't need to give Shiro any instructions at first, the cat girl knew the basic poses and Dragomir snapped pictures like a pro, changing angles and positions now and then. Dragomir felt like a professional photographer and he sometimes played with the thought that he could pursue that as a career, but no. Designing and making clothes was his passion.
"Okay, try to curl your tail and show off how the bow fits comfortably yet still looks great, and then take it off your tail and put it on your wrist. Versatile accessories are the best accessories."
Dragomir instructed, and resumed the photographing once Shiro followed his instructions.
