Picked Upload! This is a picked upload! It showcases some of the best talent and creativity available on MTS and in the community.
Here's a little default-replacement mesh to make the Artist career turtlenecks a bit more ....figure flattering. The changes are subtle, but I think they make a world of difference. I flared and lengthened the pants a bit, reduced the crease, slimmed the thighs, lengthened the sleeves, and pulled down the sweater just a tad. And it has a working fat morph, of course. Stick it in your Downloads folder to install - remove it from your Downloads folder to uninstall. The recolours pictured can be downloaded here.Because this mesh affects hidden career outfits, I also made a little unlocker mod to make those career outfits show up in Bodyshop & CAS. The mod unlocks the turtlenecks for both genders, ya/adult/elder - but the default-replacement only affects the ya/adult male mesh.

You can put the unlocker mod in your Downloads folder, but if you do, the delete button will be enabled in Body Shop. Do NOT delete the Maxis clothes from Body Shop. Doing so may corrupt your game files. To hide the clothes again, delete my package file from your Downloads folder. If you want to be extra safe, make a subfolder in the following location and put the file there instead of in your Downloads folder. This way the delete button will be disabled.
C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 YOUR LATEST EP\TSData\Res\Catalog\Skins
(or the corresponding folder on your system if your game is not in C:\Program Files)

Polygon Counts are exactly the same as the Maxis mesh. I just moved some stuff around.
Additional Credits:
Extra special thanks to Tiggerypum for helping when the fat morph asploded (don't worry it's all fixed now!) ....and for her tutorials of course. And as always, thanks to HystericalParoxysm, Wes_h, The SimPE & Milkshape teams, Delphy, decorgal, everyone at MTS2, and Rufus Wainwright's lederhosen.
