I've long said that if I could start any business, it would be one that made actually good videogame-themed clothing. There are places out there, sure, but for the most part we're still shackled to the dreaded 't-shirt with a screen-printed design' that, quite frankly, looks terrible on me.
I'm a nerd and a fashionista, darling, which means I'm constantly on the lookout for ways to make that Venn diagram work for me. There was the gorgeous (though expensive).

The videogame merch gods may have finally nailed exactly what [[link]] I'm looking for though, as Australian clothing brand BlackMilk is collaborating with my all-time favourite game, Final Fantasy 14.
The collection contains 12 themed pieces that show off the world of Eorzea and beyond. The announcement over on only shows a quarter of what's to come, but I'm already completely sold on what BlackMilk has cooked up. There's an oversized t-shirt featuring the Mothercrystal—yes, I said I don't like printed tees, but I do love oversized fits—and a gorgeous long-sleeved velvet dress featuring the map of Hydaelyn.
