Looks almost like a jacket where the pockets are at different heights. You didn't snag one of my early sewing projects, did you?

hehe nope.

I had to make it black and white cause colors would have given it away in 5 seconds so -- that is your hint!

*stares* What could that possibly be?
These images are zoomed in right?

Oh. I know what it is. Anyone need a hint?

Is that some sort of picket fence?

Definitely not.

it is a part of the preview -- zoomed in - from any pose in any item - currently in the stores

I'm not so good at this. Perhaps if I shopped more.

Showtime dress! -thing. maybe?

EDIT: pants. I meant pants.

Nope. Hint: If you're going to preview items, do it without a base.

I have very little idea of what I'm guessing. I'm just scanning the shop thumbnails.

Is it the Blood Prince Skirting? Colour would be a give away for that one.

Alright, so just because it looks like a jacket to me doesn't mean it has to be one - especially since I couldn't find any with such pockets. Furthermore the right side appears darker, which suggests those two parts are actually different colors. So... Tune Up Boots?

why does it have to be a pocket? :O

It doesn't. Could also be some decoration, a buckle, a stud, anything like that. Just need to purge my initial impression from my brain - which turns out surprisingly hard. Once you see pockets, you can't unsee them XD

What has diamond patterns on one side and no diamond patterns on another side o_o?

Whoa, if you hadn't mentioned that, I wouldn't have seen it, Potironette!

The crosshatching isn't that obvious on the actual item, though.
