Sneaks back on after being out of the loop and snickers... Have that trouble too eh Lyrra? Heck, add me to the willing doners list ;) Anyway, on to business... Lots of things already made for women but a few things are sadly lacking... Top of the list, a good set of dog earred hair style. You know, like ShenShen from Elfquest, nice and bouncy but long. With or without the added down length beneath. And while on the subject, a good long curly haired style would be nice. I've seen wavy and straight, though not so much wavy.... but I have yet to see a really good curly do like say Leetahs or the above mentioned ShenShen's. In the clothing department..... a few things I haven't seen but I'd like to.... the first being very easy.... a poncho! Again with the Elfquest reference.... like Tyleet's though for a normal sized person of course ;) Also as with so many other things, maybe something in the period adventurer type that isn't made for a teeny-bopper? Lord, that only works if you're 20 going on 16 with perky attributes that need no support, but for those mature adventurers who don't believe in getting frost bite on their clevage but choose to look just as good without looking like a cheep elven date for the evening ;) maybe something in a comfortable tunic with a sensible neck line? And some clothing I'd dearly love to see is a fully bustled Victorian gown. I know PhilC did a lovely one, but she's a bit.... well.... toned down if you get my meaning. I absolutely fell in love with the versions that Annie's Attic did for their Calendar Bed Doll collection... though I can't seem to find any pictures of them at the moment.... but basically, lots of crinoline and bustle.... the kinda dress that makes it impossible to sit down in without needing a specially made backless chair. But on the more sensible side, a nice Victorian lady's riding suit would be delicious. You know the sort? Kind of like Mina's traveling suit in Bram Stoker's Dracula?... long skirt, high necked blouse with ascot and mutton leg sleeves on a soft sude well fitted jacket? Just some thoughts... hope any of them help Littlefox
