1889 morning/dressing gown for women (Sifix' Saga gown edit)

04.10.2020 edit: updated with new CAS placement, new colours for thumbnail (matching the other 1880s pieces), small corrections to the mesh (looked ok, but just in case...)

Evening everyone!

I'm a bit weary of the whole winterwear project, so this time I decided to make something else, which had been on my mind already for some time. As you can see, it's a morning (a.k.a. dressing) gown - an easy-to-put-on garment which you could wear - you guessed it - in the morning, when you didn't have the time yet to deal with any proper toilette, but also didn't want to run around in your nightgown. Basically, a perfect choice for a lazy family breakfast! As long as there are no guests staying over, of course...

Looking at that reference picture, I kept having a strange feeling that I've already seen something very similar - and indeed, it was Sifix' beautiful Saga gown that I was thinking of. It would've been perfect... If only it wasn't for that very non-Victorian décolletage! So, I edited the mesh a little bit to fix this problem (adjusting some other things on the way too, because oh well, if I'm already doing it then why not go the full way...) and Sifix was kind enough to let me release this piece to you guys. So, here it comes!

13 swatches - Sifix' original ones (just with some different texture, as I like my stuff more "grainy") + 2 new: in full black and another variation of the red swatch (because I couldn't decide which undershirt looks better :P).

• Base Game compatible
• HQ mod compatible
• mesh included = you don't need the Saga gown for it to work (but in case you want it anyway, here it is, once again: CLICK!)
• custom thumbnail; bump & specular maps copied from the OG dress (loads of shine!)
• all LODs
• tagged as casual, sleepwear and witch (idk, I find it quite witchy...)
• disallowed for random
• PDN for recolours included, though I added literally one layer compared to the OG dress. You don't need it for the mesh to work.

Known problems: none, but let me know if you spot anything!

Btw, it's the oldest piece of clothing I ever made. 1889! I keep going back in time lately. That means it's still got some bustle - nothing extreme, but the big butt is there. Or at least that's what I was trying to achieve :).

I hope you like it. Enjoy!
