VictoriaCommings Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Cause I was gifted an Altamura skin then upgraded to a full version of the Jenny skin. When I go shopping, I see a bunch of other brands but hardly see any clothing for Altamura bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rowan Amore Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 Can't say I've seen much specifically for that body. I have seen people mention that maitreya will work although probably on an item by item basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictoriaCommings Posted December 22, 2020 Author Share Posted December 22, 2020 Yeah Maitreya is what I see most often Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claireschen Hesten Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 I don't see a lot of Alatmura specific rigs around sometimes stores that take part in the Saturday Sale will offer stuff with that rig. When an alt used one of the free bodies of all the well supported bodies around i found anything for Maitreya had the best compatibility Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
June Starlight Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 There is also a group called Altamura Friends (or something along the lines) - you can find a group joiner in Altamura body store. It is used for promotions by designers that make Altamura sized clothes. Might be helpful to find more places to shop. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chic Aeon Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 SOME items made for Maitreya will work for altamura gals. There are a few clothing items in the altamura shop. For awhile there were more clothes "marked" as altamura but many of those didn't fit anyway ^^. The shoulder and back area on anything with straps seems to be a problematic area -- so no "harness" garments for sure. Anything with long sleeves is most likely OK, like sweaters and jackets. Swimsuits will be difficult. For the guys the same applies. Short sleeved tops and vests are difficult to find but sweaters and jeans are fairly easy. Note that the newest bodies given out are BOM (nice for changing skins) but have no alpha cuts. So you will need to use alpha textures of old to block out any poke through. When I was at altamura this morning the NEW box out (bigger) wasn't set for delivery yet, but inside were a bunch of alpha textures. You can also get packs of those on the Marketplace. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tazzie Tuque Posted December 22, 2020 Share Posted December 22, 2020 another way to find Altamura clothing might be to put Altamura in search on MP, I know some designers (including myself) put Altamura in the key words so that should be picked up in search. Not in the merchant/store search box but in the general search where it says "keywords" . I just tried that to see what came up and I got over 800 pages of Altamura stuff.

Kitteh Whiskers Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Not very. When I came back to SL couple years ago, I got a full body too not knowing the outcome. After a lot of struggles trying to find clothes, I saved for a Maitreya. It's by far the most popular so you won't have a hard time finding clothes and accs at all.

Lucia Nightfire Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Coincidentally, all this week I decided to fire up my old head and body tracker system and hung out at several popular events to gather data. Here is what I recorded: Top 200 heads with 10462 unique wearers: Top 100 bodies with 11409 unique wearers: How about the market share that #1 has... #33 & #34 have different creators. I guess they decided to let "someone else" be the premiere for that brand AFTER the initial release... Top 200 head & body combinations with 10116 unique wearers: Use the this chart to either see where your head & body rank or what not to wear so you don't look like everyone else, heh. IDK what happened with #70 as it is incorrect. 8 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jupiter Firelyte Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I didn't think Altamura is very popular. I picked up one of their free bodies with head for an alt. I find that a lot of Maitreya clothes fit well; I recommend you demo before buying. @Lucia Nightfire, thanks for that! It's interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elise Voxel Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 It's been said many times already, but no, Altamura isn't awfully popular among creators. The most well supported brands for females tend to be Maitreya, Legacy, Belleza (particularly Freya) and Slink, with some support for Tonic, Kemono, Signature Alice and Inithium. The legacy, signature and belleza bodies tend to be popular among male avatars. Altamura tends to get a lot of attention whenever they put out a free body or head, but people picking those up are usually alts, users who already have well supported bodies and intend to use this on the side, or people who don't care about having clothing support. I've seen some freebies for altamura at the Ajuda SL Brasil sim, if you want to take a look. 6 hours ago, Lucia Nightfire said: Coincidentally, all this week I decided to fire up my old head and body tracker system and hung out at several popular events to gather data.
