Dark Wave Fantasy Add-on: Sleeves & Skirt

I love 3DStyle's work, and of course their Dark Wave Fantasy series. A really wonderful Tudor style set - with only two 'flaws' that make it difficult for use in historical renders. Unfortunately, the (very beautiful) skirt absolutely does not fit the courtly fashion of the time, and sleeveless tops were of course never worn back then. 

Therefore, I would like to see an add-on with a matching skirt and sleeves in the style of the 16th century. But maybe someone has an idea with which products one could complement/replace these pieces? Thank you!

    There are separate sleeves in the Ottoman dress set (https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-ottoman-fantasy-for-genesis-3-and-8-females), could be a possible fit with some tweaking maybe. As to the skirt, I think I'd just cut off a more fitting one from another outfit, either with the geometry tool or by hiding the parts I don't need. Or you could put a skirt beneath the one in the Dark Wave set and have it dForce itself on top of that, like a mould.

    Thanks, tsroemi, your suggestion sounds very good. I looked at the Ottoman sleeves and think they fit quite well. I'll also try the sleeves from Universal Dress and the add-ons from MFD; those might fit as well.

    You can see how voluminous the sleeves of dresses were in the era of Henry VIII in the portrait of Catherine Parr, Henry's wife #6.

    Ah, hadn't even thought of the Universal Dress and MFD add-ons, great idea!
