Basic White 1-pc Swimsuit

This is a basic 1-piece swimsuit, the simplest variant from the patterns I have made. It has a relatively modest neckline and leg cut on this one- it's more modest than most of my previous suits. I'll be selling these once I have made more of them for about 8 bucks apiece for basic black, red, or white, and 9.50 for printed cloth.

I will update this shortly with more pics of a CG 1.0 wearing this suit for comparison's sake. These should give you an idea though. I am also going to try suits cut higher than this and the first competition-style suit I did. Might even try a "slingshot" if I can get the hemlines to not look sucktastic.

2 lessons learned from making this piece:
1) I now have direct evidence as to why white swimsuits are lined, with the exception of certain items by Wicked Weasel and other merchants who sell swimwear of a racier nature.
2) I should probably adjust this pattern ever so slightly if I want to make one of these tailored to the Soldier Story bodies, since they aren't quite the brick....hooooouses that CGs are.

Randi is modeling this one. Shhh- she doesn't know about the lining problem ;) I will likely line the next white suit I make.

Front. It looks a bit better on a CG in retrospect- fewer pelvic joint issues...

At least the back is decent, technically....though I suspect most of you have no problem with the unintentional lack of modesty ;)

Just a few more cute pics thrown in for fun.

(I am a bit disappointed in the feedback I got for this on the board....mainly because everyone focused entirely on the lack of modesty. To be fair, it's a very plain suit, so I guess they needed something more interesting to focus on....buncha pervs, heh heh --K).

Randi's a sweet kid and all, but you boys needed a little more cheesecake, didn't you? You guys are so predictable....not that I mind that much."
