Summary
In the vibrant world ofThe Sims 4, clothing kits can play a crucial role in defining individuality and style for Sims across all ages. Each clothing kit brings its own unique flair to the game, offering players a plethora of fashion choices to adorn their Sims with. From casual wear to formal attire, these kits are meticulously crafted to cater to diverse tastes and preferences.
Each kit has been evaluated based on its versatility, the richness of its item collections, inclusivity across different age demographics, and how seamlessly it integrates with other base game and downloadable content. Whether players would like to revamp their Sims' wardrobes with modern trends or timeless classics, this ranking showcases the standout kits thatelevate virtual fashion to new heights.
12Fashion Street Kit
Bright Patterns, Minimal Cohesiveness
One might think that a kit calledFashion Streetwould be filled with very fashionable items, but this kit comes in last place due to its lack of cohesiveness. While there are plenty of colorful patterns, none of them match well together, resulting in an assortment that feels disjointed rather than stylish. A notable highlight of the pack—henna tattoos—are already available in the base game, raising the question of why players should pay for a kit when there are free options readily accessible.
Despite its shortcomings, theFashion Streetkit does have some redeeming features in the form of new sandals and the jewelry collection, which includes bangles, necklaces, earrings, and nose rings. However, players seeking more refined and customizable jewelry options might find greater satisfaction with the Crystal Creations pack, which allows them tocraft the exact pieces they desirefor their Sims.
11Poolside Splash Kit
Make A Splash With Poolside Fashion
ThePoolside Splashkitranks low on the list of clothing kits primarily because there are already ample poolside clothing items available in the base game and various DLC packs likeBackyard Stuff,Perfect Patio Stuff,Island Living, andSeasons. Players who already own these packs will find a diverse range of bathing suits, summer outfits, and sunglasses, making this kit seem redundant.
There are some good Create-A-Sim items like tank tops, swimsuits with floaties, and new nail options, but unless players are specifically dissatisfied with the current swimwear options, thePoolside Splashkit may not justify its cost. Its limited scope and overlap with existing content make it a less valuable purchase compared to other available kits.
10Throwback Fit Kit
Nostalgic Styles For The Modern Sim
TheThrowback Fitkit was thefirst kit released forThe Sims 4and the game has grown a lot since then. Considering its status as the oldest clothing kit, it does possess some commendable qualities. The game already contains plenty of modern and contemporary clothing options, so a set of throwback fits can be a refreshing addition. The kit’s bright neon and funky bowling alley carpet patterns perfectly capture the retro aesthetic it aims to evoke.
TheThrowback Fitkit isn’t without limitations, though. A significant drawback is the repetition of basic patterns across all clothing items. This kit caters to a very specific type of Sim, limiting its versatility. While the clothing can work for exercise and activewear, its utility beyond that is quite restricted. Despite its nostalgic appeal and occasional standout pieces, this kit ranks lower because it only appeals to players who enjoy a specific retro vibe in their Sims' wardrobes.
9Simtimates Collection Kit
Update Your Intimates With Simtimates
TheSimtimates Collectionkit, a collaboration with MeUndies, introduces high-quality, comfortable underwear and garments intoThe Sims 4.Released alongside the Bathroom Clutter kit, this collection features sleek and sexy bras, underwear, and pajama sets that promise both style and comfort. Reflecting MeUndies' reputation for producing excellent intimate wear, the kit offers a variety of options that make Sims' bedrooms feel like fashion runways, inspiring confidence with designs suited for various body types.
Although it contains some good clothing items, this kit ranks low due to its limited practicality. Outside the bedroom, Sims won’t get much use out of this kit, as undergarments are typically worn under other clothing. While the items are visually appealing and well-crafted, their utility in the game is restricted.
8Carnival Streetwear Kit
Capture The Spirit Of Carnival With New Streetwear
Inspired by the vibrant culture of Carnaval, theCarnival Streetwearkit offers a lively addition toThe Sims 4. Designed to capture the spirit of Pabllo Vittar and the aesthetics of Carnaval, it includes dynamic clothing, makeup, and accessories for all Sims, encouraging fluidity and creativity in fashion choices. Sims can blend these interesting pieces into any look, infusing their everyday looks with the joy and exuberance of Carnaval.
The Carnival Streetwear kit proves useful for Simscelebrating summer holidays like Carnavalor festivals. The fishnet clothing and makeup have garnered positive feedback for their uniqueness and flair. Beyond these standout pieces, however, the kit tends to be rather unmemorable. Its overall impact is somewhat limited, making it a decent but not essential addition to a Sim’s lookbook.
7Goth Galore Kit
Belts, Buckles, And Black For Rebel Sims
Voted on by the Sims community, theGoth Galorekit features a variety of textures and embellishments, such as mesh, belts, buckles, straps, and harnesses. Its sleek silhouettes and platform shoes are designed to help Sims flirt with their dark sides, making it perfect for everyday wear, parties, or any occasion where they want to stand out.
TheGoth Galorekit’s appeal is quite niche, catering specifically to goth Sims. For those who prefer pops of color or preppy styles, this kit may not offer much utility. It’s the perfect choice for Sims going through a rebellious phase and provides a fun and distinctive option for those looking to explore the darker side of fashion, it is not versatile enough to rank higher.
6Urban Homage Kit
Bold And Unapologetic Looks For Sims In The City
