Dropped the Ball with the new Jane skin?

Hey everyone! Cosmetic "connoisseur" here.

(This is all based on my opinion, so feel free to agree or disagree--it's just what I think about this)

Compared to the latest skins that have been released (The Greek Legends skins, "Unhinged Rider" Jeff, "Graff-Crafter" Nea, e.t.c.), the new Jane skin is nowhere near the quality of those skins. I mean, the dress is pretty, and the sequins on her face look nice, but past that it just looks bland.

The first thing being the fact that her hair in the trailer was BLONDE:

And is now brown instead:

Not to mention that the makeup is exactly the same as this head (compare with above picture):

Her shoes don't match her outfit at all...:

And the thigh-slit in her dress is so high that you can see her "black drawers" (I took this image while moving her back and forth, but you can still see them passively without moving her around):

I know it seems like nitpicking, but I had high hopes after the quality of the previous Survivor skins (the Adam and David ones especially, and I love the Yui one as well!), and this skin just looks bland and low-quality. Especially the easily visible black undershorts. I also know that the trailer is NOT the same as the game, but I just feel like they could have been more true to it, especially with the hair color. The shoes being a random pink color instead of a nice white or gold to match also bothers me.

I myself am not one who is bothered by set outfits, so I'm not upset by the fact that it's a set outfit--I'm just upset that it's not of high of a quality as the other skins, which are fantastic. I was really looking forward to purchasing it once it came out, but now I'm probably not going to be buying it. (also, I'm aware that it might look better in-game than in the store, but the other skins look great both in-store and in-game!)

What do you all think about the new Jane outfit? Do you agree or do you like it anyway?

    Dont be down on dem black latex drawers!!!

    Also, I disagree. I hate Jefffs outfit with a passion. Its the worst of the current ones, i think.

    I have to say the drawer is way too noticable compared to the other dresses.

    IMO, the greek collection was bit of a flop. They really did Yui dirty with those rags they threw on her.

    I have to agree that her underwear area is too easily seen with this cosmetic. I like the slit on her dress, but that black texture peeking from underneath bothers me. And you can see it easily when you repair a generator which is quite a common action during the game.

    That said, I don't know how it could be fixed. Lower the slit on her dress? Replacing black texture doesn't seem probable as all survivors have it so it wouldn't make sense to make just Jane different. Have her wear a pair of shorts underneath?
