Thank you for the kind comment

However, My dress is indeed not to short for 50s inspiration =) Seems a lot of people haven't realized how long shorter styled dresses or the "mini" has been around. It actually has been around since the 1920s

Here is an example of a cute, firty, and SHORT tennis dress from circa 1950 that I linked in a previous comment :lovestruc


As you can see here, my dress is not much shorter or longer than this one =)

This is photo of Marilyn from 1947

Here is a link of several short dresses from throughout the years that I linked in a previous comment >>>>Click Here<<<<< :lovestruc

I wish there was a longer version as well. I'd like the short to be for teens, ya, and adult and a longer version for ya and adult.

I would also like to point out it isn't to short to be 50s as you see here: This is from the 50s =)

Which is a very cute flirty dress, which is what mine is =)

Which comes from This website: http://www.makeuptalk.com/t/99750/history-of-the-mini

Would just like to point out that dress in that picture would have been used for sports, not everyday life Somebody could have worn it out, but she'd be... Talked about, that's for sure. That's besides the point, really like it, and as others have said, would love to see a longer version

This is a TENNIS dress. They always wore much shorter dresses for tennis. All the rest of the time the hem was on the knee or below. It's much more feminine and graceful, and you don't risk your panties showing if you bend over.
The game has far too many short ones and the longer ones are often awkward, so I would happily welcome yours in a longer version whenever you have the time and inclination to work on it. Thanks!

A tennis dress and Marilyn in a BATHING SUIT! These are not really clothes, they are for sports and for swimming, so they were different. (You mistook that bare stomach thing for a street outfit? LOL!)

This may seem redundant, but I was wondering what meshes/mods you use for your Sims facial features. I am new to modding the Sims 3, so I'm curious as to if it came with the make-up/eyes (etc.) mod you downloaded..? Thank you.

Lovely dress, by the way! No complaints here.

Thank you!

As for my Sims facial features, well I use sliders to make them..
All sliders by AWT
All sliders by Bella3lek
Chin to Neckline by Heiret
All body by Jonha on MTS
Chin width by GnatGoSplat on MTS
Nose Depth by Nik Sim on MTS
Upper Lip Shape By SageCUtoAMF
Eyelash Sliders by Sclub
Eyelash removal by Sclub
Chin Cleft by TumTum Simiolino

I also use Master Controller by Twallan so I can have multiple custom sliders also I have the sliders to be set at x5

and that is about is honestly.. The make up you see on my models and some of the eyes Were created by Lemonleaf and some I created myself =)

I love this dress..!! The moment I saw it, I knew that I had to get it...! ^_^ Please continue making such amazing cute dresses. There's a lack of quality dresses in the game and I hate having to make my sims wear those horrible dresses.
