Marque, whether or not any outfit looks different from what has already been done probably depends more on the imagination of the creator than on the program used. A pencil skirt done in Max is still a pencil skirt!

That said, I have to warn you BinkiKitty -- this program is not perfect, and anything complicated is going to take just as much work as it would in any modeller. But it works the way I think.:-) I have a pile of paper dress patterns and it's great to simply take a pair of scissors to a big old hunk of cloth using the patterns as a rough guide.  The last couple of images in my gallery use outfits I made, if you are interested.  They are not unusual -- just a couple of folkwear patterns.

Have fun!
