About this mod
Forehead jewelry + a new outfit for Josephine. Four colors to choose from.
- Permissions and credits
I'm one of those people that can't stand wearing turtlenecks, so Josephine always looks miserable to me; I keep picturing her sweltering underneath all that stiff, starched satin. So I tried to create a breezier, more breathable dress, perhaps something she could wear in Skyhold's garden.
There's also a matching piece of forehead jewelry. You can use both mods together, or separately.
Dress
Comes in 4 colors. To remain true to Josephine's complexion, I've given her a couple small beauty marks on the newly-exposed skin areas; if you don't like them, download the "no beauty marks" version instead. Install only ONE josie dress mod at a time.
Jewelry
Adds a draped piece of jewelry to Josephine's forehead. Also comes in 4 colors, to match the dress. Install only ONE forehead jewelry mod at a time.
EDIT: mumtherford has combined the blue jewelry with their josie complexion! Looks awesome; see user-submitted images for a screenshot. The mod is posted on their Lady Ambassador page.
Recolors and Permissions
I have no plans to make any more recolors, but I've posted up my files if you want to try making your own. Feel free to use those files however you like: make your own mods, post them up, whatever. (Well, please don't sell my stuff for money, but other than that...) I'd just appreciate a shout-out for my contribution to your project. Happy modding!

- Has no effect in Trespasser. (It doesn't cause a crash, but since Josie is always in her uniform in that DLC, you never have a chance to see the retex.)
- It IS compatible with mods that alter Josephine's facial textures: that includes mole removal, altered makeup, smooth complexions, de-shine, and forehead jewelry. It's also compatible with mods that alter Josephine's hairstyle.
- This mod only alters Josephine's body textures, not the mesh. I don't know of any mods that alter Josephine's mesh, but if such a thing exists, this mod should be compatible.
- Like Antivan Princess, her "sheer" white sash is an illusion: since you can't actually make the textures semi-transparent, I painted the sash with a faded image of what the underlying belt and dress ought to look like underneath. That means it may look a little weird from some angles.
- There are some slight seams on her chest, marking where she used to have shirt wrinkles. I've hidden/minimized them as much as possible.
- I've matched her skin to her face as closely as I can, but just like a pj mod, the color can look a bit off in some lighting.
Jewelry
Adds a draped piece of jewelry to Josephine's forehead. Also comes in 4 colors, to match the dress. Install only ONE forehead jewelry mod at a time.
- The jewelry WILL show up in Halamshiral (during the Wicked Eyes questline) when Josephine is in uniform.
- Has no effect in Trespasser. (It doesn't cause a crash, but the mod doesn't show up at all.)
- It IS compatible with mods that alter Josephine's dress or hair. (Well, I haven't tested the hair, but hair should be fine.)
- It is NOT compatible with most mods that alter Josephine's facial textures: that includes mole removal, altered makeup, smooth complexions, and other mods that give Josephine jewelry. I've provided three versions to at least meet any requests for mole removal. (I'm sorry, I can't combine this mod with the popular complexion/makeup mods! That would require access to other mod authors' files.)
- It IS compatible with mods that merely de-shine Josephine's face. (i.e. my mod alters the diffuse and normal, not the spec)
- As far as I can tell, you can't add metallics to facial textures, so I faked it: the jewelry's shine has been manually painted on. It should look good in most lighting.
