So the sister insulted the future queen...oh boi.

And that guy will get demotion at minimum, maybe even kicked out of the family if he's too dumb to realize not only was his partner wearing an ill-fitting cloth, but also not even question 'why' would a family that rarely appear in spotlight not only made a special dress but also ask for divine protection embroider specifically for this party.

No clue yet on what happens to the sister (only some chapters are visible)

But holy hell is the father trash.
He just couldn't believe that the girl in front of him could possibly be the same Yui he sold away, since the daughter he sold couldn't use do divine protection.

When the king declare about making Yui the new family head his thinking was like "yo wat why are you trying to give the title to some outsider"

You can say that having the spirit favors you is the most lucky encounter for royal.
On Chapter 10.1, it tells you brief summary of divine embroidery effect.
On Chapter 3.1, it tells you the result of the spirit's life if not being healed in time.

Yeah but it's no basis for a system of government - if I started claiming that I was the Spirit King and Lord of Mankind purely because I had a fabulous but fishy smelling hat and threads and that my invisible friend Dave told me to wear it and thus rule all over you then most sane people would lock me up....

Artwork is pretty though.

Understandable question.
I have to reread the chapters but so far, the system of government seem based aristocratic but their country have strong spirit affinity. But the royalty can see the spirit and can ask them for favors. (Chapter 5.2 & 6.1)

The seamstress hold the power that resembles with their first queen's power.

My main problem with this series (besides the questionable societal basis for autocratic rule) is....
Why do the villains have to be so incompetent?
We've all seen the "Devil Wears Prada" right? The lady in that who's supposed to be a rough movie version of Anna Wintour is clearly a despicable piece of crap - she's a horrible horrible person. And yet the one thing about her that is any good is that she is a fashion maestro. She could literally dress a vagrant in binbags and do a "derelicte" and make them look fabulous daahling... Just because she's evil doesnt mean that she's incompetent. Fashion is fashion is fashion and doesnt adhere to any moralistic values of good and evil.
So why does the villain in this story have to be so damn crap at the one thing he's supposed to be the arbiter of?
Why couldnt he just dress everyone up in Hugo Boss Fascist uniforms so that we can see that a) he's evil and yet b) he's capable of making people look good
Instead he dresses him in some weird Mumu looking thing with gems glued on!! I prefer my villains to have some basic ability....

They are made incompetent so that the author doesn't have to think too hard about how to go about having the MC defeating them. Their defeat isn't suppose to be a long drawn out arc. They're the equilivate of the Monster-of-the-Day in a Super Sentai (think Power Rangers) show. Show up, be evil, get defeated, allow the audience to feel cathartics, move on to the next plot line.
