'''Dressers''' and '''wardrobes''' are objects, usually purchased in [[buy mode]], which allow Sims to change their [[clothes]]. Sims using the dresser can change into their 'normal' clothes, and can change into pajamas/sleepwear, swimwear, and formal wear in all games; Some games and expansion packs introduced other changing options, such as 'High Fashion' in ''[[The Sims: Superstar]]'' or 'Outerwear' in ''[[The Sims 2: Seasons]]''.
 
==The Sims==
In ''[[The Sims]]'', dressers hold all items of everyday clothing available in the game. Prior to ''[[The Sims: Hot Date]]'', they could even change a Sim's body type, since body type in the game was only determined by the item of clothing being worn. BeginningUsing withthe ''Hot"Change Date'',Clothes" [[Maxis]]interaction dresserswould weresimply changed"flip" sothe thatSim theyinto onlythe showednext clothingoutfit for thehis Sim'sor bodyher typeage, thoughskin [[customtone, content|custom]]and dressersgender, basedregardless onof pre-''Hotthe Date''body dresserstype stillit workedwas in the old wayfor.
 
Beginning with ''Hot Date'', [[Maxis]] dressers were changed so that "Change Clothes" opened a dialog similar to the one used in [[Create a Sim#The Sims|Create a Sim]], except that it was larger and only showed clothing for the Sim's body type. However, [[custom content|custom]] dressers based on pre-''Hot Date'' dressers still worked in the old way.

In ''[[The Sims 2]]'', clothes would become available in dressers after being purchased by a Sim on a community lot, though some custom content allows Sims to get new clothes while at home. Sims also receive a set of clothes when they [[Birthday|age]]. Beginning with ''[[The Sims 2: University|University]]'', any career outfits a Sim receives are also available in a dresser. Once an item of clothing is in a dresser, it becomes available to all household members of the appropriate age and gender, for as long as the household continues to exist. When at least two items of a particular clothing type are available, the player can use the [[Plan Outfit]] interaction to choose one of them; if the Sim is wearing that type of clothing, he or she will change clothes.

===Notes===
*[httphttps://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=137530 This thread] by Irishman3 at Mod The Sims has mods that restore the ability to use dressers on community lots in ''Open for Business'', ''Pets'', ''Seasons'', and ''Bon Voyage''.
*''[[The Sims 2: FreeTime|FreeTime]]'' changed the way career outfits were handled so that they were no longer added to dressers. A mod by Lord Darcy, available at [httphttps://modthesims.info/download.php?t=282922 Mod The Sims] and [http://www.moreawesomethanyou.com/smf/index.php/topic,12429.0.html MATY] restores this feature.
*If a two-tile-wide dresser is placed next to a [[bed]], the reserve tiles in front of the dresser will keep Sims from being able to get in the bed from that side. Dressers that are one tile wide can be placed next to a bed without interfering with Sims' ability to use the bed.
*''Open for Business'', ''Pets'', ''Seasons'', and ''Glamour Life Stuff'' each have a low, flat-topped dresser that allows small decorative objects, but not table lamps, to be placed on it. The ''Apartment'Werkbunnst LifeMedium Stonewood Dresser''' expandedfrom ''Open for Business'' also allows this, but the slots are misplaced so that objects seem to sink into the dresser. With ''Apartment Life'', most flat-topped dressers can hold suchsmall decorative objects and table lamps.
 
==The Sims 3==
''[[The Sims 3]]'' introduced full outfit customization, including changing clothing, shoes and accessories, using the [[Plan Outfit]] interaction of a dresser. All of the dressers are flat ones, with no armoires available. Unlike ''[[The Sims 2]]'', dressers can now have objects placed on them. Sometimes the drawer can get stuck and the Sim will pull on it with both hands until it opens, causing the Sim to momentarily fall to the floor before standing back up and continuing their action.
 
The [[Fuss no Muss Styling Station]]{{Vgversion|TS3:A}} combines clothing, hair, and makeup options into one editor. Using the "Makeover Self" interaction allows the player to change all of these for free without having to use the dresser and mirror separately.

In ''[[The Sims 4]]'', dressers are used to change outfits and plan new ones. They can be bought for a minimum of §325, and the game comes with both flat dressers and armoires. Flat dressers can be used as a surface to hold lamps, collected items, and ornaments.
