(Non CAS)Mermaids wearing a pink skirt

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? Swedish
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? Not sure, but it is the latest possible update.available, and i always use automatic updates.
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Island Living, Get famous, Get together, Seasons, Get to work, washing room stuff.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Get a mermaid wich are not created from zero in CAS into a bathtub.
What happens when the bug occurs? When the mermaid transitions from tailless to having their tail in the tub, a pink jacket appears on them as a top regardless of any prior lack of it.
What do you expect to see? Not a pink jacket on a bathing mermaid, that's for sure.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes, but it still apear even after i completly remove all mods.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure 

This does only apply to mermaids that are not created from zero in CAS.

It is only this pink skirt that always apear, no other type of cloathes, the pink skirt does not exist in CAS (at least i can not find it in CAS), it does apear even when i completly wipe the modmap clean, and it still do when i try to create a complete new game with a new caracter. I realy hawe tried to serach for this particular problem but i could not fint any solution that works. (When i try MCCC it also remove the tail and that cursed skirt re apear again eac time the bathtub or a swimingopool is used skinny dipping)

Does anybody know if there is any way whatsoever to get rid of this pink skirt once and for all?

    The issue you have could be a couple of things.  

    I think the pink skirt is probably an unlockable clothing item that is normally hidden in CAS but I have seen those CAS items get put on NPCs from time to time and sometimes on played sims on age up.  If you can't find it in CAS, then that's probably why.

    This sounds similar to the old bathing suit in the shower bug though.  It still happens from time to time for some folks and there is a mod that you can search for over at MTS that will fix it.  So I suggest you try that.

    Another thing it could be is a bad piece of cc causing it.  I have had cc that was tagged incorrectly and never showed up in CAS.  If it had the random tag, it would still be used by NPCs.  So another thing you can do is take a look at your clothing cc with Sims4Studio to see if you can find if it is in the game or a cc item.  If it is a game item, it will show up under the creating clothing cc options and it will show just about everything in the game.  If it is cc, they you can look at each cc file you have to see if it is there.

    If the item is a cc item, it could also be something like a hat or a piece of jewelry even though it looks like a skirt.  I had a cc male underwear that kept showing up on female sims when they took a shower.  It took me a while to find what was going on.  In the end it was underwear that was set to be a ring and was allowed to be applied to the bathing outfit. It did not show up in CAS.  Needless to say, removing the file fixed the issue for me.  You might have something similar going on.

    Hope this helps.

    Sorry for late reply, Thank You wery much for Your help, i realy, realy apericiate it!

    i tried the reset bathsuit mod, but it only got worse and she are now using some strange random cloathes in the bathtube as it seems.

    The only reason i downloaded MCCC was in order to see if it would solve the pink skirt problem, wich it did not, or it did, but it also removed my mermaid tail leaving strange streached foots, wich i suppose is underneath the tailskin.
