Line 136:
Players can have Sims try on outfits for their own age and gender. This can be useful, as the "mannequin" figure that appears when using the Buy option for the Sim's age and gender isn't always a good representation of the Sim. For example, the "mannequin" will generally be light-skinned, even if the Sim is not. Also, while children cannot buy clothes, they can try them on. The player will not be given the option to add tried-on clothes to the Sim's cart, so having them buy those clothes will involve using a clothing rack's Buy option, and finding them again. When a Sim tries on an outfit, he or she will go into a changing booth, change into the outfit, and pose in front of a mirror. After a short time, the Sim will go back into the booth, change back into what he or she was wearing before, and go back to the rack. It appears that the Sim will use what he or she considers to be the closest available booth. If the Sim decides that that booth is inaccessible, he or she will spin-change at that point, pose briefly, then change back and return to the rack. If there are no changing booths, the Sim will spin-change into the selected outfit, then quickly change back out of it.
 
In a Sim-owned [[business]], clothing racks become point-of-sale objects which allow the business to sell clothes. Customers may browse autonomously, and aA controllable Sim can suggest a type of clothing to a customer. If thethis sale is successful, a selection dialog for the customer's age and gender will open, and the player can select the outfit which the Sim will buy. If Everyday was suggested, the player will be able to select a top and bottom, or a completer outfit. This dialog is different from the normal Buy dialog; it is taller, has larger thumbnails, and does not allow the player to select a different age or gender. If the outfit is the type of clothing the customer is wearing, he or she will change into it after paying for it.

If the player sends Sims to an owned business that sells clothing, those Sims will be able to use the rack to buy for any age or gender, but the dialog will contain a meter showing how many items are left on the rack.
 
Clothing racks use the same thumbnails that [[Create a Sim#Step 5: Clothing|Create a Sim]] uses, but do not give access to the collections that are available in CAS.
