I'm really annoyed looking at the tops actually. Looks like it's impossible for them to make pieces for females covering their belly. Just some variety would be nice.

Agreed. Everything for women is always made for Young Adults/Teens with slender bodies. I thought EA was trying to be diverse? Does age variety not qualify for some reason? The long coatdress would be nicer if it covered the belly and didn't have sloppy shorts underneath. It looks weirdly mismatched.

To be fair though, we haven't seen the entire CAS. Hopefully there are more pieces with a universal fit. The male boho shirt would be nice on female Sims, too. And I really love the sashed jeans, going to use them on one of my pirates.

I have several pieces of non-cc tops for female that cover their entire torso from their shoulders down to their waistlines in my game. And some of these tops have been there since the launch of Sims 4.

Sometimes wonder if whoever makes this stuff has an adolescent male 'thing' about what females look like. Seems common among packs, not just this one.

Every one has their own taste. And some people prefer to see female in a crop top.

I honestly don't think it's that, I think it's because EA is in California where there's a mild climate and they're used to seeing more spring/summery fashions most of the year. Belly shirts and ankle pants must be crazy fashionable over there because we've been getting those in game for six years. Over where I am, in the Northeast, it barely gets into the fifties (and usually below freezing temperatures, sometimes below 0 degrees in winter) for at least half the year so those styles aren't really practical, even in summer, when it's hot and muggy. Tank tops, sure, but belly shirts? Hardly. And the obsession with pants above the ankle for guys is just weird to me. I guess they might be wearing them in the colleges, but I rarely see them. It's covered bellies and long pants or tank tops and shorts for us over here, lol.

That's true. It could be that EA is based in California is the reason for so many crop tops for females.
I too think that pants above the ankles for guys is weird. Unless they are really long shorts. But I don't see long shorts being that long.

Aw man, I love wearing crop tops! I think they look flattering on pretty much everyone, especially when paired with high waisted pants/skirts/shorts. I also really like the long, floaty coat-top (I know there’s gotta be a word for it) over the shorts. I’m Aussie and people definitely dress like that over here.

We always get contempary fashion in The Sims. When Katy Perry was doing her stupid 'cherry nipples' thing we got Katy Perry's cherry nipples in Sims 3. And in Paranormal, they're focusing on the 'voo-doo' approach to the supernatural, so we're getting a flowery New Orleans vibe in the trailer.

However in the game, we'll be able to mix and match, hopefully.

Yes I must admit we haven't seen the full CAS yet. It's just a tendency they have to make way more crop tops than it's normal from my perspective (living in Finland hey, anything that reveals the belly is summer attire). I do like the crop tops too, just want to see more diversity. Especially hoping for clothing that would look nice on elders. Looking at that dark blue top I think it would be super nice and have more use for me if it covered the belly.

I'm not a fan of the CAS in this pack. It's too groovy for me (the 70s' are not my favorite fashion period).
Also, a lot of it look like the same stuff we've gotten in other packs. The only thing I like is the dark blue top the 3rd woman is wearing.
