I Just Realized...

I wanna make a [tumblr] fake post so bad.

To further the point about T’Chaka’s father’s spouse being from the river tribe is that-

if you look at the general pattern of the river tribe dresses (parallel stripes, hues of green and brown)

you see similar patterns in T’Chaka’s afterlife outfit...

And T’Challa?

He wears a distinctly North African (achkan?) which matches up with the North African elements of the merchant tribe, where i presume Ramonda is from:

Even over here, we see on the far right in the background, a guy in a mining tribe outfit like the one below: 

So their ancestral spirit wardrobe is basically from their mother’s side...

Black Panther Headcanon!

Remember T’Chaka’s suit from the flash back scene of Black Panther?

And that sash, which he wore over his suit.

And then the Merchant tribe’s dresses

And then Ramonda’s costumes, especially this one

They all have a purple fabric and gold metallic embroidery in it, and I’m assuming that it’s a traditional style of the merchant tribe, since we see it in multiple merchant tribe costumes. Most of their clothes have something purple with gold on it.

Since the spouse of the Ruler of Wakanda would be from one of the four tribes, there is a ¼ + ½ chance is that Ramonda is from the Merchant tribe. In the comics, Ramonda wasn’t from Wakanda, but in the movie, considering the costume details, she could have had a major connection.

My main headcanon is that when a Black Panther gets married, they wear a sash in honor of their spouse’s tribe along with their royal ensembles as a mark of marriage. 

Similarly, a traditional headdress is worn by their spouse as a mark of marriage and status as the Royal Consort.

Looking closer at T’Chaka’s sash, there’s a cream, black and green pattern done down the middle, which looks a lot like the colour palette of the River Tribe. (Below)

I think that could stand for the tribe of his father’s spouse, who may have come from the river tribe. In addition, I believe that T’Challa’s clean suit look with with no extra accessories would change if he happened to get married.

I don’t know if that will ever happen now in the movies, but it would have been awesome to see T’Challa and Nakia’s wedding and a ceremony where they get dressed up as a married couple for the first time.

I’m imagining T’Challa in his sash with the River Tribe’s colours (Cream, Green and minimal black), embroidered cowries and a purple/gold pattern down the middle (for his mother). And then Nakia wearing a green gown and embroidered cowries with her headdress.

Damn I really wish I had that scene and I’m sad now.

Also thinking of the music that might have been included. With drums and singing and all.

regardless of who anyone likes,

this gifset gets everyone hot and bothered.

Who’s more attractive me or T’Challa?

You’re hot in different ways, but I clearly have a favorite so 👀 idk if you want my answer…

DJ Snake’s “Run It” for Shang Chi just dropped and I noticed something...

See what Rick Ross is wearing??

That’s the jacket version of T’Challa’s achkan from Black Panther. Nice one.

I am bat. Fear me.
