NOTE: This is a variation of the Dion Rogers fanart version of Rinoa. I changed a few things to suit my body type and tastes better, hence the longer wig and whathaveyou. I felt that because it was fanart in the first place, it was a little more open to interpretation
No, the white string on my hips is supposed to show. It's ribbon. And I didn't misunderstand you- I just wasn't sure what you were talking about at first.
