haha I can’t believe they made Fire Nation into a real thing

Jokes aside, Fire Nation’s ornate design and heavy red & gold motif were inspired by places like China, Thailand, and Korea.

In order:

1) Thai and Burmese clothing

2) Chinese clothing

3) Korean clothing and and crown

4) Korean masks & Chinese festival

5) Chinese armor and interior design

6) Chinese architecture

7) Thai architecture

Check out the following video I made for more examples across all nations!

Avatar live action adaptation’s costumes and set designs are gonna be stunning if the original show is any indication. I’ve compared show’s existing designs to their real-life inspirations. If they take some creative liberty, like how Game of Thrones did with its costume designs, I think it’s we’re going to get a visually stunning show, at the very least.

Måneskin for Billboard Italia

“The amazing thing is that we won because of so many people at home voting us, and that’s what counts the most for us, because that means that people are truly enjoying our music. So we are so honoured and happy, and we really wanna thank everyone who supported us. And this is just the beginning for us.”
