Ribbon thighhighs?

Do we have a tag for those thighhighs with a ribbon threaded through the top? Usually white with a red ribbon.

I guess it can occur in other legwear as well: post #1077276

I would use thigh_ribbon for the first example. The others could use a new tag, though. I tend to see those in miko-themed outfits. Perhaps that has a Japanese name that could be used?

the red broken line string/ribbon doesn't appear to be limited to thighhighs/legwear as they appear in haori too like from kikyou_(inuyasha) (post #1110669). when it appears in the sleeves it's called sode-kukuri, according to google, though i can't find the kanji and references outside inuyasha.

thigh_ribbon doesn't have a definition, and half of it is ribbons on the thigh without legwear. Should it apply to just any ribbon on the thigh area?

Hmm, 袖括り means sleeves fastener... so what would the one in legwear be called?

other variations:

lace-up_thighhigh maybe?

I ran across post #1090562 which reminded me that we never came to a decision on this. Perhaps a general ribbon_trim for any clothing with this feature on the edges, whether legwear, sleeves, etc.?

Go with ribbon_trim.

I've noticed the extreme prevalence of the legwear tags makes it a little difficult to narrow down the results to ribbon-trimmed legwear. A lot of results will come up of characters with ribbon-trimmed sleeves who wear thighhighs without a ribbon trim. I figure we can have some ribbon-trimmed* tags as with the many lace-trimmed* examples, though not quite so many. We can narrow it down to these categories, and implicate ribbon_trim:

ribbon-trimmed_sleeves
ribbon-trimmed_legwear
ribbon-trimmed_clothing (at the ends of dresses, shirts, skirts, etc. besides the sleeves)
ribbon-trimmed_gloves
ribbon-trimmed_ornament (for garters, hair ornaments, etc.: what should be used on a garter attached to legwear is a question mark for me, though)
ribbon-trimmed_underwear
ribbon-trimmed_swimsuit

I got to categorizing them, mostly as planned, but added two more (collars and headwear)

Implications:
ribbon-trimmed_sleeves -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_legwear -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_clothes -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_gloves -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_gloves -> glove
ribbon-trimmed_ornament -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_underwear -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_underwear -> underwear
ribbon-trimmed_swimsuit -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_swimsuit -> swimsuit
ribbon-trimmed_collar -> ribbon_trim
ribbon-trimmed_headwear -> ribbon_trim

Done

There's been several more "ribbon-trimmed" variant tags since I proposed these implications. Some of them may be worth adding to the implications (like ribbon-trimmed_skirt).

Is there any need for ribbon-trimmed_thighhighs, though? I'm thinking of tagging those posts with ribbon-trimmed legwear and thighhighs as appropriate, and then doing away with it by alias.

Well, ribbon-trimmed legwear are nearly always thighhighs.

It would be maybe the same relation between lace-trimmed_thighhighs and lace-trimmed_legwear. So I'd more likely populate the ribbon-trimmed thighhighs tag then.

Mostly, but there's over 20 legitimate examples here:
ribbon-trimmed_legwear kneehighs

I can hardly find anything that's not thighhighs with lace-trimmed_legwear, but separate lace-trimmed_kneehighs and lace-trimmed_socks tags exist there. Lace-trimmed thighhighs is such a high count tag that rolling them all into "legwear" would add an irritating amount of false positives to a search for non-thighhigh variants. Not sure if if we should do the same with the ribbon-trimmed tags (it's at least not as much of an issue currently).

I've often thought about why we don't just convert everything over to the *_legwear format.

The only issue with the current scheme is that if it wasn't for the autocomplete showing lace-trimmed thighhighs as one of the top results under lace-trimmed_*, I'd have no way of knowing whether to use *_thighhighs or *_legwear, especially since almost every other qualifier for legwear uses the *_legwear format.

Using the consistent *_legwear format for all qualifiers would therefore make tagging easier at the cost of having false positives. The post count of lace-trimmed socks and kneehighs is about 15 each and the error rate is about 50% for both (if everything gets converted over to *_legwear). Since the overall count is so low, I'd consider that a cost I could deal with.
