#rococo ts4

Hi! A little over a year ago, I messaged the lovely @sychik if she would be open to making a robe volante mesh. She agreed, and the mesh was completed last year in September. Only now have I gotten around to recoloring it. This would NOT be possible without her; she made the mesh. All thanks to her.

A Robe Volante was a gown that was invented and popularized by the French in the early 18th Century (mainly 1720s and 1730s) as a means of comfort to oppose the previous mantuas that Louis XIV enforced on the ladies of his court. These previous gowns had very tight corsets, were extravagant, and were ultimately not comfortable to wear. The Robe Volante had loose corsets and was very flowy and lightweight for the standards of the time. It was also eroticized, as it allowed the men to see the lady's ankles when they walked. It began to fall out of fashion in the early 1740s, as it evolved into the robe à la française.

This Robe Volante for your Rococo sims has 100 swatches! 99 have 18th-century patterns, and 1 is completely black for mourning. It is also only 6k poly!

Display Index organized by 1720

Works for everyday, formal, party, hot weather, and cold weather!

Also converted for toddlers and children; see below.

As always, please let me know if you have any issues

Hi, lovelies it's been a while since I've posted cc, but nonetheless, I'm back and here I have a baroque/rococo-themed Hungarian Noble set for y'all.

The items in this set are textures taken from the wardrobes of Hungarian noblewomen. This one is from Countess Orsolya Esterhazy of Galantha. I'm sure some of you have seen some of her dresses before

The Esterhazy family was extremely rich and affluent, and one of their castles in Hungary was known as the 'Hungarian Versailles'. This style of dress (1650-1750) as seen above took heavy influence from Spanish culture, and Hungarian noblewomen were glad to wear this style of dress every day, not only for special court functions, but to show their status. Headdresses were symbols of family status, women wore decorated bonnets to cover their hair, and young, unmarried girls wore partas (which I have the meshes for but couldn't get to work properly).

Another texture is from the Hungarian Transylvanian era and is believed to be from the dress of Catherine of Brandenburg, who was elected Princess due to her marriage to Gabriel Bethlen.

Another dress texture is believed to have belonged to Baroness Dersffy Orsolya from around 1610.

Other textures included are from a 1750s Hungarian Court Gown, one worn by Countess Stephanie Majlath in 1867, a Gold and Green ladies' robe from the 1900s, and a pale green ladies' robe from the 1900s. I have pasted all of these though to a baroque/rococo style mesh as their textures suit them anyway.

I used mesh pieces from @acanthus-sims and @buzzardly28 for the dresses, courtesy of maya40 for her beautiful textures and for being so kind to provide me with information and history on her country.

In this set, you are getting 7 dresses (each ranging from about 13k-15k in polygons, sorry), 1 bonnet mesh from cynnix which was retextured by maya40 to match these dresses (multiple swatches), a 1660s bonnet with 3 swatches from maya40, 2 Hungarian veils retextured by maya40, mesh originally by cynnix, 1 baroque lace collar with 3 swatches found in glasses category (mesh by maya40, textures by me), and 1 Hungarian laced bonnet by maya40 with 3 swatches. All of this is BGC, and when downloading please read my TOU.

That was a lot so I'll add more pictures for visuals

As always, let me know if you have any issues! @mmfinds

Sophia & Augusta, a mid-1790s dress, hair, and ribbon (hat) overlay for your sims in celebration of me reaching 500 Tumblr followers last week, which is very shocking considering I had around 110 in the middle of January, so thank you :)

There are scarcely any 1790s items in the sims, especially mid to late, so here you go! I also think I'm the first person to make a 1790s hair.

I used mesh pieces from @the-melancholy-maiden @buzzardly28 @javitrulovesims @cringeborg and @vintagesimstress to make all of this.

Augusta 1790s Dress works from about 1794-1799.

Sophia 1790s hair works from about 1791-1798 (and is 14k poly, sorry). Hair isn't really that compatible with other hats aside from this ribbon overlay.

BGC, hair has all natural swatches, ribbon overlay, and dress both have 30 swatches. Everything is found towards the bottom due to my display index (you should see my thumbnail)

With the dress, all the patterns are historically accurate for the time and most are striped as stripes were very popular for the latter half of the 18th century.

Here are some different angles of everything

Now, here are some actual 1790s portraits and fashion plates

Merry Belated Christmas (if you celebrate) and Happy New Year! I was going to post these on Christmas but got busy, then decided let's wait till New Year's and was busy again. So here I am on 1/2/24 releasing this at 3AM-(a month later after the previous accessories, sorry)

I've recolored a shawl accessory by Sherazade that they've converted from a Sims 3 creator deltasim

Awellah: Includes a Turban and Shawl. This turban will fit the late Georgian era (1780s+ when Turkish Influence was prominent in the West), and Regency Era (1795-1837). The Shawls can fit any era I suppose, but the recolors of the Awellah Shawl are in paisley prints which were in fashion during the Regency era.
