Friendly Thursday: Esmerelda

Esmerelda doesn’t have time for your nonsense. She’s busy deciding on the latest fashion trends and working to keep Subeta looking stunning. Details of the populace’s incompetence do not interest her.
But many things displease Esmerelda. Many MANY things. You’d have to try really hard to get her to stop what she’s doing and focus on you, though. If you can figure out what it is you have to do to grab her attention, be prepared for a one-on-one appointment with the most scathing personal critique of your life. That’s all.
Once you unlock Esmerelda, she will appear in the Secret Tab.
Unlocking Esmerelda is not limited to just this month like with our Throwback Challengers. While we'll continue releasing a challenger on the second Thursday, you'll have plenty of time to unlock them.

If it helps, I used these items to unlock her:
Boop

I don't really know what I did to unlock her, I just showed up wearing one of my standard outfits and was immediately unlocked.

How do you know if you have it unlocked? I saw the invitation to battle but my connection was bad so had to refresh



I got a tad impatient with testing only a couple items at a time, so what worked for me is still rather general:

@Aeon - Ah, true! I'm not sure if that's it, but that could be related, I guess.
Some musings on what could work

I haven't unlocked her yet, but seeing all the suggestions in the comments, I'm gonna try them out for a bit and see if I can find a magic combination of some sort.



HOW DID THAT LAST BIT WIND UP OUTSIDE OF SPOILERS?!
I was 99% pretty sure I closed the tag before I submitted... Eep! If a staff member is still around, please feel free to fix it.

30+ random items seems to have worked for me. I don't think any of the items I equipped were in the beautique.

Also, to others struggling with unlocking this even using outfits posted:
Are you trying on the Subeautique main page or are you in one of her two shops? I unlocked her on the main page here (Click!), which has links to her "restocking" Subeautique Clothing and her static inventory Subeautique Makeup.

Maybe this will help?

Cause I tried copying other users' outfits and got nowhere. Tried to keep to a consistent colour theme, nothing. Finally just went nuts.


Hmm...
I wonder what her fear is gonna be.....
The best fears we had so far were Jacques and Bubbles.

... Absolutely no idea what just happened, but I unlocked her without doing a thing. :P
Yay?
Yay?




Oh hell, stupid phone posted before I could close the spoiler. Can staff edit comments? Sorry all.
