PixelDolls - Cheongsam (qipao) dresses

Wow, how difficult could this be? Set up a white background, change clothes
, ctrl ` a few times... and ta-dah, post done.

Unfortunately, Second Life didn't want to co-operate, and refused to rez my textures, leaving me all blurry. Multiple rebakes, tweaks to the graphics preferences and relogs didn't help.

(And of course, all those relogs didn't help with trying to keep consistent settings for the pics.)

After some googling, it turns out it might have a Phoenix Viewer setting - more info here if you're having a similar problem, such as vendors in shops staying grey when you're mad keen to shop. Since making hte change, all seems to be going smoothly

Anyway... the blog must go on.

When I was tping around to follow up on yesterday's sale silks post, I came across these beautiful cheongsam or qipao dresses. I love cheongsams... so elegant and romantic!


Here are some more of the colours available... (partly just to experiment with images on a white background).

The dresses are 99L each or 299L for fifteen. I think that's what they call a 'no-brainer'.

I have to warn you, there's nothing fancy about these cheongsams. Forget prims and flexis - there's a shirt and a skirt and that's it. But they're pretty! And great for laggy sims! (Although.... glitch pants would have been nice.)

Find the dresses in-world at the PixelDolls mainstore.
