O.K., supposed you were buying some clothing for Millie, how should it fit - should it be an "honest" fit, as shown on the left, or would you rather have it fitted the way Zygote did on the right - correct some of Millie's "problems" by just ignoring the mesh, which will give you a slimmier Millie, but which is going to require the user to meke the body part under invisable. I'm not saying one way is "correct", what I'm is asking is which people prefer - I'm at the stage I can go either way on my first Millie items.

I like the one on the left. Never was too crazy about skin tight clothes, besides, real clothes tend to stretch out a bit in the sleeves and neck, especially after they've been worn for a while. Kate

I agree with Kate. The one on the left is more "real world" looking.

The left. You are making Vicky clothes--terrific!!! (Could I put a bug in your ear about a coat or jacket????). If this is a sample, I can see possibilities already. I ignored adding a dress or skirt to my holiday wardrobe because I just found the way I had to adjust the thighs, hips a pain. I tried P4 dresses and Steve's and they were easier in P4--maybe its the buttock vs. the hip/thigh thing,---but your skirt seems smooth and doesn't have much of that v flip in the front, so since I'm not a modeler I don't know. Ohhh, just noticed the shoes too-very nice. Like your P4 ones--which I like (but would never EVER wear G) I assume you are going to offer her clothes for sale. Diane B

Diane- Yep, they are going to be for sale, I think I'm going to try selling with Zygote and see how it goes. The heels aren't as high as I put on the Posette, Vickie is a little past that- and after seeing what Zygote did I made 'em with morph heels and toes. As to the skirt, she still can't sit down in it, but I think I do my skirts a lot better than Zygote does - I make my hip cut much closer to the knees than they do, and play with the fall-off zones until the center smooths out better. No big secret, but I'm suprised they haven't caught on. Posess are identical above, BTW.

Thanks--looking forward to them. I realized after my post concerning the Vic dress to Chad that I never 'sat' my P4 woman either, but when I compared the 2 and Steve's, I just felt I had a lot more problems even standing in a fairly straight post with the Vic dress than the P4 or Steve's dress. The morphed toes and heels are a great idea. I like the areas that you can play with in Zygote's clothes (sometimes easier than doing a whole map).

Left looks better.

That wrist looks painful ;-)

The left one. Using invisible parts is a pain in the a**, plus some clothes don't totally cover the part needed to be hidden (ex.: clevage).

O.K., looks like everyone (including me) likes the honest fit, that is the way they will ship. I've also decided to include a sit-down skirt, I worked on one over the weekend, it wasn't as hard as I thought - the hard part was doing MTs so she could sit cross-legged!
