Welcome to our forum.
I've just consider a materila change to something like cellophane.
What does your wife think? What kind of bottoms does she wear? She is very tall too, right?
Cellophane is good, but it causes a bit of reflection in pictures. Might I suggest chain link.
When you were a kid, did you ever get your hair pulled by the chain links in the swings? I did, and it really hurt.Just something to think about.
