1890s working girl mini-setHello everyone!One of my biggest pet-peeves when watching others play the decades challenge (please don’t hate me for it, I swear it’s more of a ‘sigh, again’ than 'lmao you moron, what are you even doing’) is when people put their 1890s sims in clearly Edwardian clothes, because 'it looks simpler’. Lately I was contemplating this phenomenon and suddenly realised - duh, but how are they supposed to dress them in real 1890s clothes if there’s close to zero working class outfits for that decade? They’re right, almost everything available looks too fancy for simple workers!And so I rushed to pinterest, gathered some inspo and made this teeny tiny set. It clearly belongs to 1890s and has all the typical features of the 1890s high fashion, just… A little bit toned down. So the skirt has a similar shape (in fact it’s the same skirt I used for my last coat), but it’s slightly narrower and shorter; the blouses have puffs, but not as huge and stiff as in more expensive outfits. And there’s an apron too. Nothing screams 'working class’ as well as a good old apron.Just a small note: please remember that 'working class’ is a very broad term, so it’s not like everyone who had to work for a living would be dressing like this! European farmers would probably wear regional folk outfits; maids would wear hand-downs from their houseladies; women working in offices would most probably dress very similarly to the upper classes, just not as fancy (my absolute favourite for office girls is THIS amazing dress by Elfdor - half of my save wears it ;)). My set is most heavily inspired by Scottish fisherwomen - you can see them amongst other inspo pictures in THIS post.OK, enough blabbing, here’s the important stuff.The set consists of:- a woollen skirt in 3 lengths, each in 10 colours (the shortest one can also work for teens, and not only the working class ones!):- an overlay apron, working with all 3 skirts, in different colours, found under tights (see the main picture);- 2 very similar blouses, but with a bit different puffs. Each in 9 colours. Found under blouses or bottom-ups:The task of taking swatches’ previews for all those items at once turned out to be too much for my sanity, so you just have to believe me this time: the swatches are there. All in rather washed out colours. Work quite well with each other.Cross-compatible with Linzlu’s ’Picnic at Hanging Rock’ set (if you use my blouse & Linzlu’s skirt, there’ll be a small gap in between them - but it’s really small, you’d have to look really closely).Hope you’ll like this mini-set, enjoy!DOWNLOAD (free on Patreon, no ads)PS. It might be that I’ll turn silent for a while. I’m not feeling too well lately and currently the very thought of doing anything Sims-related makes me want to vomit - and sadly that’s not a figure of speech, I’m literally fighting nausea. I hope it goes away soon, as that’s obviously not how I want to feel about a game I used to love, but for the time being - I need a break. I hope you understand <3***Terms of UseDon’t: claim it’s yours or monetise in any wayDo: convert, recolour, include the mesh, edit the mesh to create something amazing - just please tag me once you publish it, so that I could also see it! -- source link
