FASHION STUDIO – ADULT SIMS ONLY – PRIZES: FASHION OUTFITS, LUCKY HAT AND LP
Only Adults can be a Fashion Designer, to begin this hobby you need to buy the fashion studio from the promotions r us store and place it in one of your sims houses.
I cannot find it in my home store to place it? You need to look in your inventory under the hobby and career items section
I cannot place the fashion studio, it says its locked/ limited item, what do I do? You will have this problem if you try and place it from the new items tab, look in your inventory instead to be able to place the fashion studio in one of your sims houses.
You can buy as many as you want so you can have as many adult sims as you want completing this hobby at once
Once placed tap on it and select one of the options:
- Design Fashion- 10 minutes
- Work Overtime- 1 hour
- Tailor Chef-d’oeuvre- 6 hours
- Create Next Big Thing- 12 hours
After the time has passed come back and click the exclamation mark above your sims head to find one of the fashion collectibles. Every time your sims complete one of the options above their fashion hobby skill level up percentage will increase, once they reach 100% they will level up, there are 6 levels. You need to reach level 6 to be able to unlock all of the fashion collectibles, once unlocked you will be able to find them.
The table below shows the level up percentage for each option:
This may change in future updates
| LEVEL | 10 minutes | 1 hour | 6 hour | 12 hour |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-2 | 2% | 12% | 74% | 150% |
| 2-3 | 1% | 11% | 66% | 133% |
| 3-4 | 1% | 8% | 49% | 100% |
| 4-5 | – | 4% | 24% | 50% |
| 5-6 | – | 2% | 12% | 25% |
For example if you did the 12 hour option, you would need to do this 4 times or the 1 hour option 50 times to reach level 6 from level 5
NOTE: it says 150% but you will start from 0% at level 2
The next table shows you for each level what fashion collectibles you unlock (so you can then find those ones too) and also the level up reward that a second and future sims will receive when they level up in this hobby:
| LEVEL | TITLE | 1st TIME LEVEL UP UNLOCKS | 2nd+ TIMES LEVEL UP REWARD |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Fashion Disaster | Brown Fishersims Hat, Fishersims Overalls and Gum Boots are unlocked in the hobby collection | – |
| 2 | Fashion Faux Pas | Blue Overalls are now unlocked in the hobby collection | 250XP |
| 3 | The Look | Striped Shirt and Red Boots are now unlocked in the hobby collection | 500XP |
| 4 | Fashionista | Dress Pants and Leather Shoes are now unlocked in the hobby collection | S750 |
| 5 | Whats Hot | Vest and Shirt Combo and Pink Dress are now unlocked in the hobby collection | 10,000 Town Value |
| 6 | Fashion God | Black Coat and Chichi Heels are now unlocked in the hobby collection.
You can now complete the collection! |
1LP |
NOTE: only the first sim completing this hobby needs to get to level 6 to unlock all the collectibles, future sims will be able to find any collectible even if they are only on level 1 in this hobby (and they can do the shortest option to try and find the collectibles quicker!)
You won’t find a new collectible each time, you will get repeats, if this happens just keep going, you will find them eventually! If it is still taking too long you can use the lucky spin on the row where you cannot find the item, this will cost LPs, when you click on the LP button it will clear the row and give you a random collectible on that row so you aren’t guaranteed a new item (you will get back any other collectibles you already had in that row) Need to earn some LPs to use the lucky spin?
The completed fashion designer collection is shown below, once you complete the collection you need to click ‘start a new collection’ at the top of the hobby collection screen, this clears the board so you can complete the collection again to earn more rewards (you will only get the option to restart the hobby collection when you have completed the collection):
You will earn XPs when you complete a row in the hobby but to complete the collection you need to find all 12 of the collectibles
The rewards for completing this collection are fashion outfits, lucky hat and 3LP:
- The first time you complete the collection you unlock the fashion outfits (you need to build the costume and swim store then you will find them in the outfits section, the female outfit costs S9,500, the male outfit costs S8,500)
- The second time unlocks the lucky hat (which can be found in the wardrobe for adults under hats)
- From the third time onwards each time you complete the collection you will earn 3LP
Time Limited Hobby Events– the fashion designer hobby appears often in these events, to complete these you have to complete the fashion designer hobby a certain amount of times during the time limit to unlock all of the prizes, you can find a list of time limited hobby events here. If you want to complete these time limited hobby events then have one sim get to level six in this hobby before the next event starts so you only have to do the shortest option when the event begins!

FIND THIS POST HELPFUL?
Thanks so much for writing this blog. Lifesaver
No problem 🙂
How do you restart the hair botiquet quest if you failed the first time?
You cannot do this yet because it isn’t available right now but it will be back again soon so you will be able to complete the hobby again then to get the hairstyles, just keep your eyes out for the pop up telling you it has started.
Should I use 1 hour or 6 hour option to find the chichi heels? Does it increase my chances using a longer time?
No it doesn’t increase your chance, the longer time increases your skill level
I finished 2 time. Where can I find lucky hat
From the wardrobe
I didn’t press the start collection again button at the bottom. Is there anyway to start the collection over with a new Sims or am I just stuck? I did the same thing when I completed the Horse Tricks Hobby, I didn’t click the start collection again button.
No you can press it at any time! Just do it now and start collecting again
I’m at end of level 3 but keep getting the same items over and over. What’s up with that?
It happens, just keep going, you will get other ones eventually
It really helped me. Thanks
No problem 🙂
How is that I got level 4 and 5 things when I’m a level 2 for the fashion studio
Have you had a previous level 6 fashion designer? That unlocks them for future times
Thanks!
No problem 🙂
Luv your blog! Thnx so much!
You’re welcome 🙂
Amazing blog. I have a problem with my fashion hobby. I was doing 10-minute actions all the time but once I reached level 5 I don’t seem to go any further if I do only 10-minute actions. Is my best choice 1 hour now?
Thanks
Thanks 🙂 get one of your sims doing a longer option until they reach level 6 then go back to the 10 minute option
In your blog you state that you can do the 12 hour option 4 times to reach level 6. I just tested that theory and it is incorrect.
I meant it is 4 times from level 5, once you reach level 5 it will take you 4 times to reach level 6 as you increase by 25% each time.
I have completed the long hair and the dress and man suit lines, plus the green hat one and have completed the 3lp once now for fashion studio… I have the hat in the wardrobe option, but the dress, heels, jacket and mans outfit and shoes did not show up… Glitch? I can even see the hat in the salon… I dont know whats happened…?
They can be found in the costume and swim store
Does getting the lucky hat have any benefit?
I don’t think so!
You should try ghost hunting. You can do it in less than 4 minutes and get LPs for completed sets faster!
Cooking is now the best way to get LPs quickly.
How do u get lps on cooking? Btw you blog is great and really helps me:)
This post explains how to earn LPs from the cooking hobby: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/01/14/the-sims-freeplay-how-do-i-have-so-many-lps/
Thanks, I’m glad it helps!
Your Sims freeplay article for the hobby “fashion designer” mentions place that you call the “Fashion & fancy dress shop”. I can’t find ANY building (or place to build either) with that name? Does it have a different name, & what is it next to?
It’s now called the costume and swim store
I was wondering about the purpose of the lucky hat?
your sims can wear it
So I just completed the entire set, and it says I got the new outfits, but I don’t know how to access them? Like I would click the wardrobe to change their outfits and (I’m not sure if it has anything to do with the new update) there’s nothing new there. Thank you c:
I believe with the new update you have to build the costume and swim store, then they will be in your wardrobe
[…] Cooking, Diving, Figure Skating, Fashion Designer, Fishing, Ghost Hunting, Horse Tricks, Vaulting, Showjumping, Woodworking, Juggling, Spell […]
You’re right. The lucky spin was a waste of LPs. I will keep trying to complete the sets and get the long hair styles!! XD
Can you help? My sim is on level one fashion designer, and I have completed the first set of clothes. How do I get other sets of clothes? I keep getting the same!!!!
your sim needs to get to level 6 to unlock the whole collection
Is there any way of wearing these items you make?
only the suit and dress rows as shown in the picture in the post.
I finished the set but have not built the custom & swimming store if I reset the hobby will I loose the fashion outfit till next time I finish the set or I can reset and then build the store and they will be there?
no, if you reset they will be in the store when you build it.
How ti get complete fashion designer sims freeplay
and how to get long hair event unlock??
you need to buy a fashion studio from promotions r us
The long hair event was only available for a limited time so you can’t do it right now, sorry.
If you quit a hobby, I know you lose all your experience, but do you lose the physical items you’ve won? Like outfits?
no you don’t
Awesome. Thank you!
Sorry, but I’m not sure to build the Costiume stor, because I need money for the Mall. Are this outfits free?? Like wedding outfits. I get wedding outfits free in salon, but I’m not sufe for this outfits… If theye aren’t free, than I’ll stop doing the hobby because I don’t have Coustiume and Swim store 😥
Yes the outfits you win in this hobby are free
I had to pay 9500 Simoleons to buy one of the fashion outfits I won from completing this hobby once through. It seems to now be available for all female sims.
Yes, they have changed it, they are now free once you build the costume and swim store.
I can’t get any items other than the top row of the collection, the brown fishermen hat, overalls, and gumboots. I have been playing for 3 hours. I have even had 3 people creating fashion. I have tried the different times of making items like the 10 minute and the hour one. I get the same result. Is it really this hard or is there a glitch?
one sim needs to get to level 6 in the hobby to be able to unlock all items, there are tips on this post: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/2015/09/30/the-sims-freeplay-ringlets-of-fire-quest-29th-sept-6th-oct/

Read this post for general hobby information: Frequently Asked Questions About Hobbies
I’m not sure if there’s anything that can be done, I’m just curious if anyone else had this problem or knows how I can fix this. I’ve been doing this hobby for at least a month…I’ve been level 6 for quite some time and I still have not gotten the last item which is the chichi heels. I’ve tried doing the 10 min option over and over and over again. I’ve done the 1 hour option all day as often as I can and still can’t get it. Is this a glitch or am I just really unlucky? Has anyone else had this problem?
This isn’t a glitch, you are just unlucky, unfortunately the heels are rare so they take longer to find, all you can do is keep going, I know it is frustrating but you will get it one day!
(OT) If I didn’t finish the quest on time, I will not be able to get the free limited items. Is this the same for all quests?
I’m at level 26 and I’m still on the Sous Judgmental quest, I always run out of time 😦 Your blog is really helpful, though. Thanks for this!
You have to complete quests in the time limit to get the time limited prize, but you can still complete quests once the time limit it up.
I’m glad it helps, you’re welcome!
I really love your blog! It really helped a lot.
I just want to share that before, I was disappointed that I did not get the Latin villa template and wasted so many LPs… Then I’ve search and read your blog and been following your tips eve since.. especially the hobbies and quests. Now I have unlock vaulting, horse jumping, broomstick flying, breakdancing, completed the infant outfits, and had a pet dragon 🙂 All I did is to keep going just what you advised.. even though I did not get some of the limited prizes, I keep on playing 😀 big thanks to you 🙂
Oh I am so glad I have been able to help! I hope you keep enjoying the game 🙂
Hi,I just completed the collection once. I have already built the costume and swim center. But I couldnt find the outfits anywhere. I checked in the costume store and also their wardrobes..but the outfits couldnt be found. Do you have any idea where they might be?
Also, I really like your blog! It is seriously so helpful! 🙂
It will be in the outfits section of the store and will cost you S9,500
Thanks, I’m glad it helps 🙂
Can I have more than one if I can where can I find it
Yes, buy the fashion studios from the promotions r us store.
Hi! Do you know which fashion designer option is the most efficient (time wise) in increasing the percentage of a level? I currently need to level up to be able to unlock a clothing piece, and can’t decide if I should do the 10 mins option repeatedly or the 12 hr option instead. Thanks in advance! I love your blog btw. :))
The 10 minute option increases your percentage very slowly each time so I usually do the longest option but if you have the time to do the shorter options you can see the percentage it increases on the first few times so you can work out how many times you would need to do it using that option to level up to see if it is worthwhile doing that option compared to another one but if you are going to be busy throughout the day stick to the longest option
Thanks!
Hello, I can’t find the dress in the costume store after collecting all the clothing pieces 😦
It will be in the outfits section of the store and will cost you S9,500
Occasionally there are free fan created outfits. How do you create a submission or get the outfits?
I don’t know how you submit them but you can find the current ones in the costume and swim store under outfits for female adults.
What do you get each time the sim levels up?
First time you level up you unlock the new fashion designs to be able to complete the collection, further times
Reaching level 2- 250XPs
Reaching level 3- 500XPs
Reaching level 4- S750
Reaching level 5- 10,000 added on to town value
Reaching level 6- 1LP
Do you need the costume & swim store to finish the hobby? I have 1 item left to unlock and have been working on it back to back for days, and have not gotten it.
No you don’t, just keep going with the 10 minute option, hopefully you will get it soon, some do take longer than others to find though.
Hi I’m currently doing the hair botique event and all by sims are level 6 and I got all clothes in like 1 day and a few hours but I just can’t get the heels and days are passing and I’m trying to get atleast 3 or 4 of the hair. Please help
If your sims are level 6 then try to do the 10 minute option over and over, the heels can take a long time to get so doing the 1 hour or 6 hour options is going to take you even longer to get them.
Hi, im doing social task . The task is doing design fashion in a neighbor’s house . So anyone have fashion studio in your home, pls help me to come your home in the sims . Can i know your facebook name if you have fashion studio in your home in the sims freeplay ?
You can find lots of people who need neighbours here: https://thegirlwhogames.wordpress.com/neighbour-requests/
If I have all but one item and I’ve been trying to get it for months, would using the lucky spin get it for me or just one I already have?
The lucky spin will find you one in that row so it may be one you already have but its worth a try if you have been on it too long!
I might keep spamming this hobby instead of the cooking one for more LPs. Having to check back every minute, with the alternative being staying on this game forever, feels like too much of a hassle. What do you think?
Yes its definitely worth a try!
Hey!
I finished the entire set and it never said I’d get the clothes for the guy and girl.
Is it a glitch? Am i gonna get them at all?
P.S.- I love your blogs, they help a lot!
There was a timed limited hobby event on this hobby recently, did you get a hairstyle instead? If so you agreed to doing this event instead: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2016/12/29/the-sims-freeplay-the-charming-barber-hair-event/ once the event is over you will be able to complete the hobby to be able to earn the clothes.
Thanks!
Thank you!
I redid the collection I got the clothes.
You really helped!
I’m glad that worked!
Why is it taking so long to level up my sim to level 5 to level 6?
Try doing one of the longer options.
Heyyy! Love ur blog it’s amazing 🙂 Hv a small prob right now tho. I hv a sim on level 5 but no matter how much I do the 10 min option the skill level hardly increases. Is it actually like tht or is it glitched? And what should I do next?
Thanks 🙂
Thanks! It isn’t a glitch, you will need to do a longer option to level up quicker.
I’m using an iPhone 6 and I don’t have the option to start a new collection.
You will only get the option to start a new collection when you have completed the collection, so found all of the fashion pieces.
I haven’t built the Promotions R Us store yet, but the game has told me that the Long Hair Event is in 2 days. Will I still need to buy it in order to get the fashion kit?
If you want to participate then yes, you will need to build it so you can buy the fashion studio otherwise you won’t be able to complete this event.
Would being inspired make unlocking the collectibles faster?
No, it makes no difference.
Hi is there more chance of getting a rare item if you do longer things, ? I have been doing various ones for ages and I still can’t get the chichi heels? Any advice?
No, once you reach level 6 in the hobby just do the 10 minute option over and over.
I don have even hair long . I complete the sims in level 6. Why? I don understand this even what they want it. ??
The long hair event is not currently available, you will get a pop up when it is available in the game and I will also create a post to let everyone know it is available.
Why are those chichi heals so hard to get?! I mean cmon it’s a tad ridiculous… probably have a better chance at winning the lotto than those popping up.
One of my sims has been on level 5/6 forever but it says 100% ?? How do I reach level 6?
If this issue continues you may want to contact the makers to see if they can fix this issue for you, this post explains how to contact them if you are unsure: https://thegirlwhogames.blog/2016/05/29/the-sims-freeplay-contacting-ea-firemonkeys/
