A Sim who is on a date can buy for his or her companion, and can have that Sim try on an outfit.Ĭlothing racks included in Hot Date and Vacation are not carried forward from those expansion packs. If the answer is "Yes", the Sim will follow the clerk to the register and pay for the outfit. After a short time, the clerk will approach the Sim, and the player will be asked if they want to have the Sim buy that outfit. The Sim will go into a changing booth, change into the selected outfit, and pose in front of a mirror. Players can have Sims try on outfits before buying them. In addition to the specially designated kids' clothing rack, children can use the racks for Swimsuits, PJs, and Winterwear, as long as they're in one of the community areas that kids can travel to. One, included in Hot Date, is for adults, while the other, included in Vacation, is for kids.

There are also two racks that allow Sims to buy several different categories of clothing. Vacation introduces Winterwear, Superstar introduces the High Fashion category, while Makin' Magic introduces Princely attire exclusively for Prince Sims.Įvery category of clothing has its own individual clothing rack, which only allows Sims to buy that type of clothing. However, the new outfit replaces the old one, meaning that a Sim can only have one of each type of clothing at any given time. Hot Date introduces the ability to purchase new outfits for other categories, which can be bought on community lots. However, custom wardrobes based on pre- Hot Date wardrobes still work in the old way.

If Hot Date or a later expansion is installed, the "Change Clothes" option opens a dialog which allows the player to flip through previews of the Normal outfits available for the Sim's age, gender, skin tone, and body type. Prior to Hot Date, the wardrobe's "Change Clothes" option would change a Sim into the next available Normal outfit for his or her age, gender, and skin tone, even if it didn't use the same body type. It is not possible to purchase Normal outfits, as wardrobes contain all available everyday clothes. All other categories have a default outfit, which is automatically assigned to Sims when they are created. Sims wear Normal clothes by default, and they are the only clothing category available in Create a Sim. Note that the Formalwear and Swimsuits options are entirely separate from the standard Formal and Swimsuit categories. There are also several categories of costumes, which can only be selected from the Porta-Parody Costume Trunk included with House Party. There are seven different standard categories of clothing: In The Sims, a Sim's clothing is not separate from the Sim's skin, and clothes are often referred to as "skins".

Swimwear did not initially appear in The Sims 4, but was added back in a patch soon after launch. The athletic category was carried forward from The Sims 2, making Sims change into it when exercising. Sims will change into everyday when heading out, formal for a wedding party, sleepwear when going to bed, swimwear when swimming, and winterwear as protection from extreme temperatures. Throughout all main games, common categories of clothing are everyday, formal, sleepwear, swimwear and (in an expansion pack) winterwear. Starting with The Sims 3, Sims no longer require a dresser or closet to change clothes, and can change into any category of clothing anywhere at the player's discretion. In console games prior to The Sims 3, Sims would produce changing booths before changing their clothes. In most circumstances, Sims will change their clothes simply by spinning around quickly. Sims are able to change the clothes they wear, either by using a dresser or on the spot before they perform certain interactions or go to certain places. In addition, other Sims may react differently depending on the clothes a Sim is wearing-or lack thereof. Although clothing is largely cosmetic in nature, certain categories of clothing may affect gameplay for example, wearing inadequate clothing in cold temperatures will make Sims uncomfortable. Otherwise, Sims are always clothed wherever they go. Sims are only without clothes when bathing, streaking, skinny-dipping, or WooHooing.
