Thank you for this! Now our grannies will make a splash indeed, your versions look so much nicer than the originals. I've never understood why Maxis hates elders so much. What, as soon as you've hit 60 (or whatever age Maxis thinks qualifies as "elder"), you can no longer have nice clothes and will pull your trousers up under your armpits? Right.

Thank you! These are so far superior to what the poor elders were stuck with....I'm right with NixNivis- what have older people done to deserve such a short shrift from EA?

Oh, thank goodness! I go away for a while, and come back to shaped-up grannies - YAY! (I think they were working out for the last 3 months or so ;-D)

Ohh so that's why your elders look so much better than mine! :O

Yes, this is needed. Those textures were hideous and I never understood the stick arms/weird bodyshapes for elders. Thank you!

Thank you for the comments, they are much appreciated. Poor elders got most of their meshes when EA's art department was going for a cartoony look. Then they changed to more realistic later, but almost stopped making stuff for elders!

Now that I'm actually getting nearer to 60 than I'd like to admit (I still have some years, but I'm no young pup), I am starting to resent that elder bodyshape more and more. Most people who are 60-ish who I know do NOT slouch, and if anything is sagging, they buy the proper undergarments or bathing suits to ... errr .... prop things up a little. Thank you for recognizing that, Cat!

I've been on a default replacing kick lately and this fills a vastly annoying hole.

My elder sim females and I thank you very much for this! The Maxis elder female simwear is, frankly, ugly as heck, and don't even get me started on that awful saggy breasts and stick limbs elder Maxis mesh! Now my grannys don't have to look like death warmed over anymore!

Thank you! It's amazing how a few changes to the mesh and editing the textures changes the look of the awful default clothing we were given.
