Rose is the name of the person who created the Rikku hair for the Sims2, I think, based on Final Fantasy:

Chak would know for sure.
That hairstyle is well known to me (In th past I played a lot FF and of course I know Rikku^^) and I also have Rikku's outfit somewhere in my archives.
It reminds me of my first "modding"-attempts as I tried to add Rikku's boots from one mod into the Rikku Outfit mod (to save space in my load list)
Since the name of the dress-folder includes the word *Dementia* I suspected that it comes from the Shivering Isles. And indeed, here the Red Finery is classified as *Dark clothing of Dementia*:

PS. In the search-engine there I found out that the Red Finery is worn by Nanette Don, Ahjazda, Muurine and Sickly Bernice. The male version is worn by Shelden.
The Black Finery is worn by Relmyna Verenim
Re: Finery. I remain puzzled, because Form ID finder told me that the base was oblivion esm, not SI. At any rate, I still think the Finery dresses that appear in my game are replacers. I'll keep an eye out for the mod (if it is that, and not DLC) and will let you know if I ever stumble across it.
Edit: In case anyone is watching this, the dress is indeed from SI. I've pulled it out of the BSA using BSAopt.
Only one advice: open the _n texture file and add a very dark version of the actual hair texture to the alpha layer. That gets rid of the shinyness
Huh, now that I think about it, writing a longer wig tutorial seems a good idea *ponders*
Edit: Another trick for shininess, hopefully. A Nifskope Alchemy page (http://niftools.sourceforge.net/wiki/Oblivion/NifSkope_Alchemy#Material_Properties) states that, for NiMaterialProperties, there are “special cases” in the naming conventions. For skin:
“skin (lower-case). Applies the skin-only shaders to the mesh.”
Fair enough. But for hair, and so presumably wigs, the convention is different:
“Hair. Applies the glossy hair rendering Oblivion uses.”
Presumably, the upper case “H” is required for this.
