[ He can't say he disagrees, getting a look at what the stranger is wearing: it's a brief flick of his gaze, cursory, up and down the length of him, before he shrugs a shoulder, like he's leaving that comment up to the stranger's discretion. It definitely isn't the sort of style that he's seen others wearing around here, but it's also not a style that's particularly popular in the city back home, either.

It feels slightly--dated, in a way that he can't explain. Perhaps something that only the wealthy would wear. The way the stranger talks seems to back up that assumption for him. ]

With a nod of his chin to the scarves, he then tilts his head back to the side, as though gesturing the stranger closer. ]
