Hi,
I was wondering if there were a way to change the gender of clothing and hair styles from female to male so that men can wear them??

there are a couple ways...one way...changing it in simpe will result in the men having breasts....

if you can find a mesh that is close enough to the female version - you can do it in bodyshop...whatcha need brooke?

the hair can be changed in simpe fairly easy

brooke - the chief problem with converting male to female and female to male is that the neck line (hair line in hair meshes) won't match up without surgery in a mesh editor.  Usually it is best to locate a similar mesh for the target gender then use BodyShop to extract the BMPs for the clothing, then start a new project with the target mesh.  Then copy over the appropriate files and adjust them in an image editor to your liking.

I might have a play around with it and see what i can come up with. I only need it for one shot for a contest so it doesnt have to be perfect.
If it cant be done then no big deal!

Thanks for your help guys!!
