In hindsight, I think it would have been better to give the pinafore a slight offset from the body to start with and make it sit on top of the top everywhere. Not only would that have avoided the problems with the constrained group, but it also makes simulations work better (I think) where the top is crunched up a bit underneath.

Well, live and learn… I’ll try to remember this lesson for future outfits.

That said, I think I might be publishing the tights/socks with the variable length materials as an item of their own now, given that they’re a bit more elaborate and could work with all kinds of other clothes.
