First of all, I'm really sorry about asking this. I know it's probably been asked several thousand times before by people other than myself, but I did a search and didn't notice a current thread with this.
As you no doubt are aware, a screenshot exists with some clothes you can't make, yet were obviously in the game at some point:
http://starwarsgalaxies.station.sony.com/images/screenshots/20011101002.jpg
The human on the far right is of course wearing the "Leia Slave Bikini Outfit," of which only the top is available. She also has some pretty cool shoes. Any word/info on the skirt/shoes being available in-game? I've seen many a bothan NPC thug wearing the skirt.
The wookiee in the picture has a neat sash. Does this exist? The trandoshan looks like she is wearing a cape. Again, non-craftable.
Moving right along to this picture:

The zabrak on the left is wearing an excellent cape. Non-craftable. From the looks of this picture, male fashion in this game is sadly limited to Boushh's flightsuit, rebel marine armor, and the all-black pseudo-Jedi look.
Then of course there is the loot-only "robe" that many force-sensitive NPCs and nobles wear. And the "boots" that are slightly different than uniform boots you can craft. And the one set of super-short shorts. And the "pants" that occasionally drop, again different than what can be crafted.
I'm not a tailor, but my fiancee's character is. She's been wanting to make these clothes for a long time (been playing, like me, since July). Since the art for them obviously exists in the game, why in the heck can't you make any of this? Is the answer "space expansion" or something?
I'm sure it urks you all. And again, really sorry to bring this up. But I'd like to wear this clothing, and I'm tired of some of it not being available in any form, and the rest only available in randomly rare looted colors, and never being able to get the color I want. Is this an issue you folks are fighting for? Or did it kinda drop off?

Hmmm I'm not sure. The list of clothing items on the "top 5" thread is a list of known uncraftable clothing for which the game already has art. As for the clothing not on that list, it doesn't exist in-game as loot. Some items might be seen on NPC's (nightsister garb is unique) but other than that... just doesn't exist. Trust me, we're asking for capes and the like

Sorry I missed the top 5. I did a search, and it didn't even occur to me to look there, where I noticed this is your #1 issue.
Oh well. Thanks for replying, I'm waiting as eagerly as you folks are.

Just thought I'd mention that those links you posted are of conceptual art pictures released while the game was still in development and not actual in-game screenshots. Therefore, we can't assume that the art is done for everything you see with the exception of clothes we know to exist as loot drops only.

Hmmmm I disagree. Those are the actual in game models not concept "art." They aren't screen caps so to speak but those are the 3D models.
My bet is that the are for capes and such are there, but they have really bad clipping issues. It would at least be nice to get confirmation on why we can't craft them. If it's a clipping issue, just tell us. DOn't leave us just wondering.
