Can't find any realistic police uniform with short-sleeve blue shirt

Surprisingly, I am having a hard time to find any realistic female police uniform with short-sleeve blue shirt. Can anyone suggest?

This was made for Genesis 3 Male back in the day but I've found that it usually autofits well to most female shapes.

Thanks for the tip. I would've never found it out. You are right the outfit works well for female. Wish it has more textures.

There's a huge lack of decent uniforms for DAZ figures in general... which is odd considering how many people use them for comics and cover illustrations.  Fortunately, changing textures on this one is easy as IH Kang tends to build their products in a very mod-friendly way.  Just select the clothing item using the surface tool, go to the "default" selection tab, then select the "base color" setting and delete JUST the image (so that you retaining the textures from the bumps & normals) and then replace the light blue with the color of your choice.  Here's a quick rendering of the shirt with a light tan color, which took maybe a minute to knock out.

    

Now, what IS a pain is changing the name and numbers on the badge and collar if you have more than one character in uniform in the same scene, or want to change the info on the shoulder patches, but neither is really that big deal if you have a set of 3D numbers for the collar and a basic familiarity with photoshop. (Or if you're really fealing lazy, you can just hide them.)

The following uniforms span a range of vintage and quality options and based on their SKU numbers, it looks like the first three are 3Delight products.

I agree there are too many similar outfits but not many usable. For example, if i want to open the shirt, I have to find another shirt or create a morph for that, requiring more time. Regarding texture, thanks for your tip. I will eventually have to edit the texture image to change the number, name, and color.
