Ok found it, here is the same item rendered in Poser and in Vue with Shaders unticked. As you can see, there is no colour or pattern to the skirt in Vue without having the shaders ticked... Now this depends on whether you see this as an issue or not.. If you wanted this particular pattern, you need to have shaders ticked because this item doesn't have a texture map..

Injustice will be avenged.
