This post contains versions for "the mystical one"'s Warlokk-standard modified top separates meshes for the "V-Neck Sweater" and "MidSleeve".

This set covers the range 34A - 34De. These meshes do evince a lip when paired with a skirt-- a subtle one for the V-Neck, less so for the MidSleeve. However, a simple belt on the texture serves to convert this from a potential problem to a feature. Examples:

There is one peculiarity of the underlying meshes to be aware of:

Although the "V-Neck" and "MidSleeve" meshes are very similar, they're not identical. See the image below, and compare the top row to the bottom: notice that the V-Neck versions are tighter across the bosom, have a slightly narrower waist, and do not have as sharply defined a lip at the join. But there's an additional difference: the V-Neck versions add incident-light-angle-variable shading on the lower sleeves. As far as I can tell, this effect is added by the meshes, including the Maxis default. Certainly in the screenshots, nothing's changing from image to image but the top-- and all fourteen tops' alpha files are pure black apart from the two squares for the labels.

Obviously, this can be a bug or a feature, depending on the precise effect you're after. Just don't think you're losing your mind if you notice that a projected dress evinces an otherwise unaccountable-for color change along the lower sleeves-- particularly since the effect is diminished when the model holds her arms out horizontally...
