Lyrra, Here are some of the things people have been talking about in the previous post listed in the link above. I've gone through it and pasted those ideas here. Goth clothes (tight pants, boots, ruffled poet shirt, fitted long jacket with big lapels and large cuffs) - see hottopic.com or the movie Interview with a Vampire for some basic examples. ;) Would be great if they at LEAST fit the basic appropriate full body morphs (thin, young, toned, etc). This set could also double as a vampire outfit. Cyberpunk clothes. Not *armor.* I am talking ripped fishnet shirts over black tee shirts, vests, combat pants that tuck into some decent boots, and good jewelry and hair to match. Sort of "The Crow" like. People try to do this with his body suit, but it would be nice to have actual conforming pieces that look good. Or, for something really wild, clothes like Brad Pitt's in Fight Club. Fun, different stuff. Mike is tired of being boring. ;) Think Mike as a raver. Strider from Lord of the Rings. 'Nuff said. ;) More period clothing in general, preferably to match some of Vicki's available sets. Native American Mike. Doesn't have to be Native American in particular; Daniel Day Lewis looked pretty good in his hybrid colonial/native gear in Last of the Mohicans. JEANS! Real JEANS for Michael! And also for Vicki. The Vicki pants don't make very good jeans... More super hero outfits or characters?! I would love to see more Native American clothing, current trends in male fashions, ANYTHING as long as it FITS Mike2 with the muscular morphs. More Western wear. Western style chaps. As Eowyn said..JEANS..something that actually looks like jeans. Shirts and jackets that can be opened as in the dress shirt for Mike. Michael could use a line of athletic clothing/uniforms. Name any sport and make clothes for it. uhm... okay. I would kill for a decent tailored three piece suit for Mike. I know that Poserworld has one, but it's all one piece. Give me one that's in separate parts and DOESN'T look like David Byrne's Big White Suit from Stop Making Sense. Beyond that: things with a little more contemporary flair. All of Mike's stuff is hopelessly trapped in the "classic" look: polo shirts, suspenders, sweaters, and the like. But IMHO the few attempts at doing something like the greatcoat used in Matrix have failed in capturing the structure of it. Need inspiration? Pick up a copy of Details or Homme Vogue. Definitely a ruffled poet shirt, something romantic. Also, a longer, loose fitting open-front vest. Maybe something like a vagabond might wear, too. Something bohemian and comfortable. Pirate stuffage!!!! Poet stuffage!!!!! Matrix stuffage!!!! I would love something Baroque or Elizabethan or even REAL Gothic. What I'm really looking for is untidy, down-right wornout clothes. And, yes, I would snap up in a heartbeat, anything goth, ripped, or ruffled. As long as you can open it up to the waist. I'd love to see a good 15th to 18th century sailor or pirate for Mike. medieval Russian costumes for both Mike and Vicky -- big, jewel-encrusted robes, great big hats, these things are a texture artist's fantasy come true. Then, later in the 19th century, the Boyar uniforms: again, big, beautiful stuff, reminiscent of the guards in The Wizard of Oz. I would like to have a generic, long clothing for man, that can be turned into different old tunics and other classical clothes by use of transparency maps. A sort of "universal tunic".
