I am still learning and have been experimenting with making clothing like everyone else but I noticed that when you make a skirt that even with the bustle turned all the way down you still end up with a bubblebutt skirt. Are there particular tricks to use in getting rid of this issue so you can have a smooth A-line skirt?

Thanks in advance.

The only thing you can do about the tightness of regular skirts is to vote for a fix here:

Thanks Leff. That's the information I needed most and I voted.

Part of the problem is that some people model the butt of their avatars based on their target for what it should look like clothed. The result is that when they add clothes on top, it looks exaggerated, kind of as if you were wearing two layers of clothing in real life.

While waiting for the proposition to be accepted, you can do like many others do and like I recently resolved myself into doing... Tweak your shape!

Make sure your shape is copy and modify (if you are not original creator), create a copy, wear it, and reduce belly, butt and hips... save it was "whatever name you want - SKIRT".
That's all we can do, really u_u;
Good luck!

My av has generous hips and booty to begin with, so when I wear a skirt, I lower the Hip Width and Butt by 2 clicks each. (20 points) They're both in the Legs section of Shape, so it only takes a second in appearance. Alternately, if you wear the same Shape all the time, you can tweak it and save it as a Skirt Shape.

My butt is a 41 and I reduce it to a 25 when i wear a skirt. It sucks but its pretty normal.
