Splatoon - Squid Sisters Tagging Question

Posted under General

I've been wondering recently about how to tag certain things involving the Squid Sisters.

First off, should all posts with both present be tagged cousins, because as it stands right now, they currently aren't tagged that way.

Second, what is the type of outfit that Callie wears. It's like a combination of the strapless dress part that Marie wears, and a pair of puffy shorts combined into a single piece. I've seen some posts tag this as a unitard, but the definition of a unitard is a tight-fitting garment, so the puffy shorts part of it should disqualify that tag. The Splatoon wikis I've seen claim that she's wearing shorts, but most of the pictures I've seen make it look like a single piece, and my google skills have failed me at trying to find a real world equivalent so I can discover the name of that garment type. Does anyone else have an idea on how to name this?

Did a little more googling, and I found out that what Callie is wearing is called a "short jumpsuit". So, for the time being, I'll be tagging her posts wear she wears her regular outfit with "shorts + jumpsuit + strapless", since I don't want to create a new tag specifically for her. If I find other characters that wear that type of outfit, I'll create a new tag.

Also, unless anyone complains, I'm going to start tagging posts with both Callie and Marie with the cousins tag.

Her outfit does not resemble a jumpsuit at all. post #1457561 is what someone would expect. I wouldn't call it shorts either, as they're considered a separate article of clothing and not attached to anything.

I'm not intimately familiar with Splatoon, but from a casual browsing of the TV Tropes page, it's spoilered information. So yeah, probably not a good idea to change the tags.

I know it doesn't resemble a traditional jumpsuit, but it's what the fashion industry is calling it. It took me a while of Googling, but "short jumpsuit" is what brings up the garment that matches what she's wearing. I've even seen strapless versions. I can see how using the "shorts" tag, or "jumpsuit" tag would confuse people looking for those specific items. I guess I could create a new tag, "short_jumpsuit", and I'll tag any other characters that I see wearing the same type of outfit.

I wasn't sure on this one, which is why I didn't start it yet. The problem with this one, is that they are frequently and openly called the Squid Sisters, but if they're not tagged sisters (which would be an incorrect tagging), that begs the "why" question. I'll hold off on this one for now, unless anyone else has any thoughts on this.
