Set 10:
( Most Aren't Mozart )

Again, there are more Besen and Lidiquinata (Not to mention that Maxis pirate) suit meshes with which I can play with. About the only gapping holes in men's fashion that I haven't attempted to cover are the sans-culottes of the lower classes. Sorry, mob. And really long winter coats- but the greatcoats are more a regency image. We have plenty of men's regency jackets. Also I didn't make any military uniforms, because no one is marching a regiment of redcoats through the streets of Valmar. And banyans or morning gowns. Those are informal, oriental-inspired men's robes worn at home especially if you lived in a hot or humid climate or were of an intellectual and philosophical sort. I do plan on using the alpha suit mesh to make some of these at some point for my Maiar that will later travel to Middle-earth as the Five Wizards.

And tri-corn hats. There's a mesh out there for them. If there's a strong demand I can always make the 32 matching colors.

But enough. We've finished with the lads, next are the ladies.

Ready for the 18th Century, gentlemen?


We feel very pretty now.

Charmingly Massive 18th Century Clothing: Sets 1, 2, 3, 4

Foppish Founding Fathers
Sets 1 through 10

First:

I hate working with meshes where the jacket was obviously built off the MAXIS pirate coat and boots mesh- because with that mapping around the front edges of the jacket lining trim for it is a nightmare for me. But Lidiquinata and Besen and Sussi before her did make some nice meshes for both adult and teen, so I do have and use them. However, I thought of a better way (at least for me) to build the jacket via alphas. And another personal tick when making clothing is that if the outfit would be something worn in layers, I like using the various stages when sensible as the different categories. What do I mean by that?

Using my new mesh I made 32 colors of a simple 18th century suit complete with matching jacket, waistcoat, and breeches over a white underskirt and stockings. The suit works as both everyday, formalwear, and outerwear. Yet to remove the jacket and leave the waistcoat creates a more informal and indoor look. (The fact that my male Sims never took their coats off looked a bit weird whenever I played.) Remove the waistcoat and now it is not only an informal everyday outfit but good for active-wear. Once I was down to 'shoes, stockings, pants, but no shirt' I needed a new mesh that was the nude top paired with Lidi's bottoms.

Trust me, all will become clear in the next few posts.

Warning, long posts incoming!

Okay, I uploaded here almost everything from the Keep that was part of the biggest set I've done so far. Or maybe those 100 hairs... Either way, this is a whole hood's worth of clothing. I'm saving you some of the long rambling superfluous biographical info, but I will repeat my spiel on why this set even exists:

maple, bullfinch, seashell, terracotta, comburent, custard, retro sage, green olive
emerald, herb garden, verdigris, cove, kingfisher, retro blue, forget-me-not, adonis

tired, but now I feel less like a dragon without a hoard gold

So I just inflicted on my poor Reading List the overload of Rococo Sims clothing.

You're welcome.



The next round of things will probably be more objects and object recolors. I'm not about to start uploading all the hairs just yet.
