In the bodyshop, I did regular steps to get first 2 attached pictures. Then using the photo editor, I recolored first 2 attached pictures into 3rd, 4th, and 5th pictures. Then I opened the bodyshop for this clothes and 6th picture is what I got. How do I delete the part that looks like grey? Hope someone can please help me with this. Screenshots

Oh, ok.

I think I got to do both and skip some parts, since I would be shortening the dress.

Like for example for me, in the Unimesh 1, I should skip parts that says Editing.

Cause the editing part shows the stuffs that I'm not trying to do currently, which is not
the shortening dress and it only has "~00MORPHMOD.1".

And do I need to have "Wes's Vertex Data Merge plugin"? Cause it doesn't list on the "Unimesh 1".

Set your dress aside for a day or so, do the dresses that the tutorials say, and then return to your dress once you know the basics.
