Wow! Have to say this is a stunning set, so well done CJ-Studio !
Perfect on it's own and a great addition to kitbashing and the attention to detail on the textures is superb.
Haven't read the doc's as yet as I couldn't wait to have a play,  there appears to be an update but it keeps failing
 so I'll try again later...just wanted to say great work !

    It looks amazing-bought it yesterday due to the additional discount on flash sale (and because I wanted it) haven't had a chance to play with it yet.

    It is amazing...I couldn't wait to see what could be done with it and it simulates beautifully...hope you enjoy using it as much as I am ;)

    Really enjoying this outfit (just including a link so that other people can find it). It has kind of the same vibe as the Twilight Sorceress outfit but offers more options for people who aren't into skimpwear, and even the semi-transparent texture sets cover enough (at least when you are using top, skirt, and garment) to be SFW.

    For people like me, back-converting the outfit to G3F, here's some pieces of advice:

    Review the PA's tutorial under "Simulation Settings" carefully, and make a judgment call about whether you think you would be more likely to use the belt and collar on top of the garment layer or underneath it, because the tutorial explains that you should add and drape certain pieces of the outfit first, freeze simulation and then add and drap the other layers. When I converted the outfit, I created two sets of wearables: one was the skirt, top, and sandals, and the other was the garment (hooded thing), bracelets, wraps (drapey things that hang from wrists) belt and collar, using the morphs on garment, belt and collar to insure that belt and collar would be the outermost layer. I put this second wearable in a subfolder named with a reminder to freeze simulation on the other pieces first. If you like the belt and collar better underneath the garment and over the skirt and top, you might want to morph all the relevant pieces accordingly, and save belt and collar as a third, separate wearable from the other stuff. and add and simulate it after the skirt-top-sandal layer and before the other layer.

    Something the tutorial kind of points out, and I strongly confirm this for G3 converted version, is that you want to do an animated drape with your character morph added on the same keyframe as the final pose you want to use. Here's the result with Phyrra for G3/Mika 7:

    Odaa, it's a lovely render !  I haven't had time to try it on G3 as yet but did find it works very well kitbashing with the exquisite ornaments outfit.

    Thank you! I bet it looks good with those pieces as well.
