    Looking at today's new releases I spotted this (which jumped into my cart): https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-madame-bleu-outfit-for-genesis-9-feminine

    Not exactly what you're looking for but the dress has the puffy sleeves and a plunging neckline, and is meant to be used with an obi so a corset should work.

    I do have MD still installed, so if you're deseprate enough to do the rigging/dforce I could probably make you the obj on Sunday.

    (Attached is 5 minutes with the modular shirt that comes with MD, just with the sleeves widened. I would still need to do the collar, lining, seams, work out the fabric weights, topology etc. You could use your own shaders to the material zones or I could add some textures with the obj. It's been on my todo list to work out how get MD stuff back into Daz for simulation (usually I export the pose and do the simulation in MD).)

    Heh, you mention rigging an obj, and I'm like, well MD would be waaay easier....

    No worries. The only other thought was if you had https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-mi-two-piece-business-suit-for-genesis-8-and-81-males how far does the shirt open? Because your reference image looks like it has a dropped-shoulder seam, maybe you could expand the whole shirt, shrink the cuffs back to tight, then sim? I can't think of anything else high-quality with a collar. I have an openable unitard (deforce Union suit - I think my version is a freebie, not the one in the store) I can get to work like that with a clincher (timeline sim the corset/clincher 200% scale to 100% to pull in the shirt fabric), but it still has no nowhere near that much gather in the sleeve.

    Look foward to seeing if anyone else has a suggestion

    It doesn't look like that shirt has any open morphs beyond the first button. I'll have to take a look at other button down shirts...I know there's a bunch out there.

    This is so difficult since most of those attributes aren't medieval at all. This made me think of a few products at Renderosity: Dzheng's Poet set 1 & 2 or his Fazhion set 4.  You might be able to use morphs to open the shirt more or a little transparency and texture work would give more of that bare chest/Chippendale look. He also has a corset set in there.

    That's why I said fantasy, lol.

    Dzheng's sets were already mentioned above and sadly, there's not much to them. I'm looking for stitching detail, etc...and that is difficult/impossible to add with tiled shaders...unless one is good at making real textures specific to that uv. The clothing needs to be able to stand up next to a photoreal model. That's the problem with a lot of clothing out there...it's just dforce tubes with no real detail work, so it can look ultra fake.

    Here is an example of exactly what I'm looking for just for reference - 

    Oh, I didn't see this until I posted. OK, more MD stuff but https://www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/d5Y8M/20-medieval-man-shirt-vol-01-video-tutorial (and https://www.artstation.com/marketplace/p/0elY7/5-medieval-men-s-belt-marvelous-designer-clo3d-zprj-fbx-obj)

    These are nice, but they don't come with materials. That is beyond my scope of expertise.  

    If they come from MD they must be UV-mapped, and using a cloth shader preset on them should work. One of them seems to be free so it might be worth a try.

    It is difficult/impossible to add stitching detail with tiled shaders. I have a few wonderful tiled shader sets (I collect Fabiana's as they are my favorite)...but if the starter outfit is missing stiching detail to pull in from a normal map, then the end product won't have stitches or any of that sort of detail...and then it looks off. From a distance, that's ok, but not up close. 

    I'll check out the free one, however.

    would the top of this dress work?

    can hide bottom with geometry editor, or not

    https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-cb-avast-sea-clothing-set-for-genesis-8-and-genesis-81-females

    I have this and if I remember right, the top ends right under the boobs so it would be a bit too short. The corset I'm going to use will be an underbust style (but more of a waist cincher compared to the one pictured), so I'll need at least some shirt material on the torso.

    This shirt from Linday could work as well using the method described above to puff the sleeves and then pull the cuffs back in - 

    https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-wet-and-dry-boyfriend-shirt-dress-for-genesis-8-females

    I like Linday's clothing because it is typically super-detailed. 

    This one might be a winner.

    I didn't but tossed it into my wishlist after suggesting it here and just got it as my Advent calendar 2.99 item

    now I am going to try it on a muscley guy yes 

    update Maxx 

    I see what you mean about the shirt, did not realise all separate bits

    used shirt and corset with Corssican pants and boots

    Current flash sale reminded me of this set, which includes a nice shirt: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-giuro-vendetta-hd-for-genesis-8

    The expansion pack has several different open morphs for the shirt: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-giuro-vendetta-hd-expansion-pack

    I have this - I'll have to take a look to see how well it works with G9. Thanks!

    I'm invested- and curious with what you end up getting and how you end up using it :) Might have missed it but did anyone mention this one? It's open, has a collar, gen 8, and doesn't look too modern- not sure if it is what you are after though- good luck!
