Video Game Fashion: Catherine

Official Website Screenshot

Today’s video game fashion feature is Catherine, a 2011 adventure and puzzle platformer game for the Playstation 3 and the Xbox 360. It follows a man named Vincent, a commitment-phobic bachelor who is dating a woman named Katherine. Katherine wants to get married and is perturbed by Vincent’s indecisiveness. One day Vincent goes to the local bar, gets drunk, and wakes up to find another woman in his bed… another woman who just happens to be named Catherine.

Going back and forth from the local bar to the inside of Vincent’s head, you interact with Catherine, Katherine and some of Vincent’s friends as he tries to hide the two women from each other and eventually decides between them. At the same time, men have been dying in their sleep. When the same dreams these men experienced begin to plague Vincent, not only does he have to choose a woman to be with, he has to stay alive long enough to do so.

Yes, the premise for this game is a little crazy, but trust me: Catherine is a gorgeous and completely unique experience. If it sounds like something you’d like to try, keep reading for three outfits inspired by this puzzling platformer:

Vincent

Vincent Brooks is our 32-year-old protagonist. The man has a bit of a dilemma on his hands. He’s been dating a woman named Katherine for five years, but she wants something more. However, he can’t give her that — or at least, he doesn’t know if he can — so he keeps brushing her off. One day, he meets another young woman named Catherine and it complicates everything. Now Vincent doesn’t know who or what he wants.

Vincent is the stereotypical man who never grew up. I decided to channel his, let’s say “relaxed” vibe, in this look with some maroon jeans and a matching pair of red Converse. A pink crop top and a striped bomber jacket continue the outfit’s youthful feel.
