How to change your work outfit in The Sims 4

Customizing everything about your Sims is one of the major draws of The Sims 4. From their hair color, eye color, skin color, clothing, accessories, and more, every minute detail about your Sims is up for you to decide.

There is one outfit, however, that doesn’t appear in Create-a-Sim for you to alter, and that’s your Sim’s work clothes. This can be an issue if your Sim shows up to their high-profile lawyer career in swim trunks. Luckily, we’re here to show you how to modify your sim’s career outfit. 

How to change a Sim’s work outfit in The Sims 4

In order to change your Sim’s work clothes, you’ll need to use the cheat ‘Sims.Modify_Career_Outfit_in_CAS’ in the cheat console. By entering this cheat, you’ll be taken into Create-a-Sim mode, and be free to choose their clothing when they go to work.

To bring up the cheat console, hit Shift + Ctrl + C on PC, Command + Shift + C on Mac, or all four shoulder buttons on consoles. You can copy and paste the cheat directly into the top-left, hit enter, and be whisked into CAS. 

There are no limits on what clothing pieces you can wear since the career outfit has no specific tags in CAS. If you want your Sim to show up in a clown costume for work, it can be done. Once you’re finished picking out their outfit, make sure to exit Create-a-Sim using the checkmark in the bottom right corner.

Now, whenever it’s time for your Sim to go to work, they’ll change into the outfit you’ve picked out for them. Whether they're a simple teacher or help out the Grim Reaper, they'll look good.

Luckily, if you’re unhappy with the look you’ve created for your Sim, you’re free to change your work outfit at any time. Simply enter the cheat again to change it up some more. There are limits to how many times you alter a work outfit.

Be aware that each time your Sim gets promoted, you’ll have to update their work outfit again. Many careers come with specific clothes your Sim will wear on the job and these update with each promotion they receive. The cheat will be the same each time, so remember to use it after they get a promotion. 

Career outfits are the only outfits you aren’t able to alter in the standard Create-a-Sim mode. While this makes sense when first creating a Sim, since they don’t have jobs yet, you aren’t able to do it when reopening the normal CAS after getting a job.

Sadly, there is no way to change the outfit a Sim wears to work without cheats. You’ll need to bring up the cheat console and type it in if you want to customize what your Sims wear when they go to work.
