Clothing

Note: The clothing system was revamped in version 0.8.2, and parts of this article are now outdated. -Pocket


Clothes have a number of different characteristics:

Category

There are 13 different clothing categories of clothing, which are mostly based on where the clothes are sold and what purpose they are used for. This is sometimes specifically tested and has some in-game effects (see below). It also has a major effect on how much the clothing costs (eg. all else being equal, formal clothing will cost twenty times as much as cheap clothing).


Quality

Clothing quality is measured on a scale of 1-7 (eg. 2 is very low quality, 5 is reasonable quality). The quality of a piece of clothing has a multiplicative effect on how much it improves the PC's Attractiveness when worn (all else being equal, very low quality clothing will have 40% of the Attractiveness bonus of reasonable quality clothing). Quality also affects how much the clothing costs, although not to the same extent as category (on average, and if bought from the same location, very low quality clothing will cost 88% as much as reasonable quality clothing). Finally, it has some effect on the starting Condition of the clothing.


Thinness

How much of the PC's figure the clothing reveals by virtue of how tight or thin it is. This affects how Attractive the PC is when she wears the clothing (i.e. the more revealing the better).


Lowcut

How much of the top half of the PC's body is revealed by the clothing. This is further affected by the PC's bust size, and affects how Attractive the PC is when she wears the clothing (i.e. the more revealing the better).


Shortness

How much of the bottom half of the PC's body is revealed by the clothing. This affects how Attractive the PC is when she wears the clothing (i.e. the more revealing the better).


Inhibition

Each piece of clothing has an Inhibition score based on how revealing it is. All exercise clothing has an Inhibition score of 0. Swimwear ranges from 0 to 50. All other clothes range from 0 to 35.

  • if the clothing's Inhibition score is higher than the PC's Inhibition, she won't feel confident enough to wear it.

  • if the PC's Inhibition is less than 10 points higher than the clothing's Inhibition score, the PC will find it exciting to wear it (which earns Inhibition XP).


Style

Some pieces of clothing have a specific style (see below). With the exception of outfits that can be used for prostitution, this is mostly invisible and has little effect on the game.


Sizing

Clothes are sized for the PC as she is when she first acquires them. If she then gains or loses a lot of weight, they will no longer fit her and will have to be resized (this costs 500 RUB per item at the tailor, or one piece of fabric if Tailoring is 60 or higher). The exceptions to this are exercise clothes, and the handful of clothes with the "loose fit" style.


Condition

Clothes can be damaged, and will eventually wear out. If the PC's Tailoring is 60 or higher, there is a 30% chance of repairing the clothes (and a 70% chance of the clothes being converted to fabric)


Skirt or Pants?

This has the greatest effects, not all of which are what you would expect (eg. if the PC is wearing pants, none of the named NPCs at the disco will ask her to dance).


Bimbo

Some clothes are considered bimbo clothing, which means that PC's [[Bimbo Level]] is increased by wearing them (unless this is turned off by a cheat).
