How can I get rid of a file I cannot find that, by all means, doesnt exist?

Since this is turning into a bitch session, on a semi-related note, I don't get why 80% of custom content is one two types:
Porcelain pale, shiny, moist anime dolls with big stiff hair wearing clothing that is both surreal and slutty, as if Salvador Dali goes burlesque.
or
Ultra-mod, Laugh In, Austin Powers, Ikea plasticy furniture.
I always think these things have been over done and every single possible item you could think of, and many you never would imagine, have been done on these themes and there's nothing left to do, yet they always seem to crank out more.
Every item that Peggy, Rose, Newsea etc crank out I always get deja vu and think I have seen it before and then I realize I haven't and that they just made 16 other items in the past that look just like it.
Their fixation with putting big, poofy, slutty, ultra feminine hairs on men and toddlers also greatly disturbs me.

Your best bet, if you do restart, would be to combine files in a more organized fashion and then perhaps use the 50% method to find and eliminate this dreaded plague.
MaleClothes
FemaleClothes
Accessories
Hair
Skins
BuildAndBuyMode
Hacks
Sliders
And a folder containing the fully packed Sims 3 Store stuff by month.
:(
But I can't find it in any of their folders (the backup files).

Here's a way: you say you still have your uncombined files, nope? Download the dashboard tool http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=387006, read the instructions, remove your combined files and download the shitty outfit from Rose's site. Put it with your uncombined files and launch the dashboard. The tool should find the conflict and point out the two identical files - even if they're named differently. Delete both. Recombine the rest of the files and replace them properly yada yada. It should work.
BTW you didn't have to reinstall your game to remove any installed sims3pack, just delete the dcc files created by the launcher. Don't touch Riverview's ones unless you want to reinstall the damn thing.
tried it, not found. Uninstalled every sims3pack I have, and it is STILL THERE. I must have a modified version of this stupid outfit. I guess I have to start over and just make a shopping list of downloads.

It was the same with The Sims 2.
Those hideous, hideous skins that looked like someone rubbed their entire body in grease were the most popular download. Second was hideous poofy hair. Third was really ugly simplistic "modern" furniture.
Same goes for The Sims 3, for the most part. People are stupid.

Well, I literally went 'shopping' and re-downloaded only what I remembered looking good in game. Wasn't much. The one site I tended to DL a lot from was All About Style, but even a lot of her stuff doesn't have that much purpose in-game, so I left 9/10ths of that out this time around, too.
As for that particular Rose clothing item... when it was installed in my game it wound up randomly on a sim that was obese. Really obese...and since Rose doesn't believe in obese...when you put that particular clothing item on a fat sim, she gets that skinny. That made me angry (maybe from the arm in my avatar you can tell I'm not a size 0?)...and thus it had to go.
Claeric - I suspect that this mesh is somehow like that stupid doll file - it's hidden somewhere in your game and I think nukage is the only way you'll be rid of it plus anything else ugly/malfunctioning, etc.
Thank God I learned my lesson about downloading lots way back in the Sims2 days - I don't. Never will. Not to say I don't like someone else's work and maybe use it as inspiration for a lot for my game, but I'll build my own, tyvm.
TwoToot:
As a random guess that will more than likely be useless:
Is the dress like the simpack doll bug? Where it infected sim3packs made after it was downloaded to your game?
