To say that NO ONE buys "regular" clothes is not accurate. I've personally got over $7000 in my poser runtimes, having purchased the majority of the "normal" clothing here for all Gen 3 and 4 characters, male and female. I don't know what more I can personally do to support the modelers! :)

 My own needs are:

1. Office Wear... preferably professional casual.
2. Blouse/slacks sets that meet at the waist (no crop-tops!) Something a college girl would wear when not in "boy hunt" mode.
3. SHOES... anything BUT high heels. Running shoes, flats, low heels... anything casual.
4. Dresses that can be worn at times other than evenings... i.e. not cut to show 3/4 of the breasts, and not form-fitted to the point that they look sprayed on.
5. A nice coat, a la London Fog for the ladies would be appreciated (and purchased by me)

In short, anything BUT the fetish wear that is the majority of what's offered.

In the terns you've used: More Ann Taylor Loft and Nike (but please, no sweats!)
