I'm not Iris but I can help!! You have a beautiful strawberry 'vari by the way. He is very unique - no need to change him at all!Sounds like you want to look pretty regal and shiny while still being functional. I really like keeping most of my sylvari close to their planty roots (hehe), so barring cultural armor you could try matching armor pieces to the Carapace top. (I don't have a plantman, only plantwomen, so I can't entirely test for myself.) The Leystone top also looks pretty snazzy to start. If you wanted to go really far down the functional path you could start with the Seer set; if you wanted to go really far down the dignified/regal path you could start with the Aurora set; and since plant armor is the most functional armor for sylvari, if you want that, try a mix of all three cultural sets. I'm thinking Orchid pants and boots, Dryad or Snapdragon top, and shoulders and gloves are your choice. (Nightmare is nice but too frilly for your tastes, I think.) I tried as hard as I could to suggest things that look nice in red and green - hope I could help!!
