My comment for this page from Gaia: sic mundus creatus est:I spent almost two hours looking for reference photos of beautiful dresses for this page. It was time well spent because Viviana and Lilith look absolutely stunning!

Forgive me if I missed something, but shouldn’t vivi have prosthetic legs?
@ Samantha:
Perhaps you missed Lilith creating two living red pandacoons out of dirt?
I didn’t notice this on my first read through: the stages look surprisingly… simple.
We’re talking about the queen of the world and the most powerful and important wizard. Sure, they are just happy to appear in stages that look like the stage for some no-name town’s festival of the cabbage. But people are generally very reluctant to receive them that way, because they’ve learned from other monarchs who would’ve found it disrespectful.
“I spent almost two hours looking for reference photos of beautiful dresses for this page.” And yet in the first two panels, Viv looks like she’s cosplaying with Miss Frizzle’s dress. 🙂 OK, the rest of the dresses look good. “A bit wizardy” seems to be a style, but with reason.
@ Vicious Sand:
My take on it is they are wearing the local style for each appearance.
So is Lili the royal consort, now? :p

No, Lilith and Viviana are the two heroes that saved Gaia.
@ Vicious Sand:
Do not diss Mrs Frizzle’s fashion sense. She is always perfectly dressed for the occasion.

Two pages ago there is a discussion on this in the comments, where its speculated as an implied side-effect of Lilith’s spell or, given how Lilith is hinted at having god-like powers (e.g. the creation of the racoon-like critters), easy to do. It doesn’t seem to be ever explicitly stated.
Before that: At the beginning of The Last Queen of Gaia, Viviana is shown shortly having to adjust to the prosthetic legs after the initial shock, wobbling a bit on the corridor. But after that, she is shown only moving quite naturally, and making even quite a point of it when climbing the pedestal during her “improvised” speech. During the chapter, she is shown receiving some medical care related to the legs, including a doctor recommending to not walk for the next twelve hours.
In “The Door” and “The Bipartite Mind” she is shown throughout wearing stockings, so the prosthetics are not visible, only implied to be there.
While looking through the archive I also noticed, that she never wore shorts before losing her legs, only ever long pants.
