Description

===========

This mod adds to Skyrim a new outfit and boots inspired by the pictures of Victoria Franc�s.

The female dress comes in six different colours, with two textures for the corset: default and tartan, and with two skirt lenghts: long and short. The male suit comes in six different colours for the vest and two textures: default and tartan, and four different colours for the jacket, trousers and boots.

All outfit variations can be bought from a vendor, Victoria, that is at Dragonsreach Throne room, in Whiterun.



Outfits Statistics (Long and Short versions)

--------------------------------------------

* Slot = Body

* Weight = 1

* Base value = 100

Boots Statistics

----------------

There is also the option of replacing the wedding outfit and boots and/or the party outfit and boots with the Romantic outfit. For the replacers versions you have to choose only one of them for each replacer but you can mix different colours and textures for each of the pieces of clothing.



You can also add the outfit and boots to your inventory by using the following console commands:

Wedding outfit:

* dress: player.additem 00088956 1

* boots: player.additem 00088958 1



Party outfit:

* dress: player.additem 000e40de 1

* boots: player.additem 000e40df 1



And there is another version of the mod that replaces the Radiant raiment you are given in Solitude.



The standalone and the replacers versions are completely compatible: you can have all of them installed at the same time.



It can be installed using Nexus Mod Manager (download it here: http://www.skyrimnexus.com/content/modmanager/) or manually. For the replacers version, as there are several options to choose from, I strongly recommend that you use Nexus Mod Manager.



The female bodies used for the dress are the default UNP and the default CBBE v2/v3 bodies and the male bodies are the default FavoredSoul bodies. If you use another body mod you may see weird textures in places were the outfits show the skin.

Incompatibility

===============

For the standalone version: none that I am awere of.

For the replacers: As it replaces the wedding outfit and/or the party outfit and/or the Radiant raiment clothes it will be incompatible with any other mod that modifies/replaces those outfits. If you find anything else, please tell me.





Known Issues or Bugs

====================

The short skirt clips a little when running. You are wellcome to improve its weighting.



There is a bug in the CK that makes that 1st person female models don't show the correct textures if you use texture sets (as is the case of th standalone version of this mod).



If you find anything else, please tell me.





Future plans

============

Make other mods and play the game :)

2.1, 21-01-2012 - fixed position of boxes, now they won't go through the ground. Fixed version of the file displayed by Nexus Mod Manager.

2.0, 20-01-2012 - added short skirt meshes for the dress. Made it possible to use different colours and dress type for the wedding dress and the party dress replacers.
