Boutique - Designer Item Request

There are a number of different types of requests you will receive from characters who visit your Boutique. The requests are fairly simple to fulfill if you have the correct clothing items in stock that the customer is looking for. Occasionally customers will request an item that you have designed for a brand representative at the Designer Lounge.  

When you have completed a commission request for a brand representative, the item is available in your portfolio. These items are available to sell to customers at your boutique. You cannot sell items you design for yourself via the second floor of your boutique and these can only be worn on your character or on mannequins at the Caprice Chalet.

The customer will usually talk about how they have heard rumours that you have designed a certain item, i.e. bag, shoes or dress. They will request to take a look at the item and the game will bring up the outfit selection screen like normal.

Custom design items appear with a shape around them and are found at the beginning of each clothing item section. The item does not need to exactly match the customers personal style and they will often purchase items that don't match their outfit at all. Select the item to show the customer.

If the customer is pleased with the item you have shown them (which is most of the time with these requests), they will purchase the item. 

The tricky part about these requests is that you may have deleted the item the customer is looking for from your Designer Portfolio as there is only so much space to store designs. You can reject customer requests for designer items if you do not have the item available. For example, this customer was requesting to look at a customer outer which unfortunately I had deleted from my stock and portfolio to make room for other items and designs. You can either reject the customer request straight away when they ask if you are sure you don't have that item in stock or when you are in the outfit selection screen.

The other thing with these types of requests is that customers will reject the item if they already own it. This happens often as you lose track of what items you have sold to customers before especially if a customer item has been in your inventory for a long time.

Here are some examples of customers wearing designer items, mainly ones that don't match at all.

This customer wore the design t-shirt under that original t-shirt.

The raindrop leggings do not match this outfit at all.

A perfect example of how designer items do not match the customer's original outfit.

Boutique - Caprice Chalet Characters Request

If you have downloaded rooms and added them to your dolls house at the Caprice Chalet, the character of the player who you downloaded the room from may visit your Boutique sometimes. These characters appear as a green character at the Boutique and their profile will show information off their profile card as well as their name.

The requests are simple for these characters and they will usually ask for only one item. The character will tell you the style they are looking for and ask you to provide them with an item that matches that style.

These characters will talk about how they enjoyed working with you at the Caprice Chalet and how they have noticed fashionable everyone is in the city.

After you have served the character at your Boutique, they may appear in other locations around the city. They will appear as a green character in locations such as Taylor Arcade. The character will let you know that they are looking forward to visiting you at the Beautician or Hair Salon soon for a make-over.

Why not download my Caprice Chalet room at 180-239-9851 and maybe my character will appear in your Boutique. Please refer to the Caprice Chalet guide for more information on rooms and the Room Codes Database for room codes that you can download.

Boutique - Customer Requests

There are a number of different types of requests you will receive from characters who visit your Boutique. The requests are fairly simple to fulfill if you have the correct clothing items in stock that the customer is looking for. This guide will cover the requests that customers will ask for when visiting your Boutique.

Fashion Show Outfit
Customers will head straight to your Boutique after a fashion show to request an outfit based off the style from your latest show. Make sure to stock up on items based on the style you used in the show and if you are unsure of the style customers are looking for, they will tell you the exact one they are looking for straight away. This is a great opportunity to clear excess stock you don't want anymore quickly as you will have lots of customers or to generate quick cash from selling outfits completely made up of expensive chic style items.

This customer requested a girly outfit as she loved the girly themed outfit I wore in the fashion show.

Request for a specific item
Customers will occasionally ask for a specific item that matches a certain style. They will give you hints on what they are after and these requests are usually pretty basic. Sometimes they will ask for a style that isn't the main style of your Boutique (this means what decor you have currently set, i.e. girly or bold). Don't be afraid to decline the request if you do not have the item they are after in stock.

Examples of these types of requests include:

• The customer gives you the maximum price they are looking to spend, usually occurs with customers looking for basic items.
• The customer is looking to purchase a certain item for their wardrobe, i.e. basic inner, sporty trousers or girly shoes.
• The customer is looking for an item to match their style and may not give you a hint on what their exact style is. You can tell by looking at their outfit and identifying what brand they are currently wearing. It's a good tip to memorise the brands and styles in the game. For information on the brands available in the game, please refer to this guide.
• The customer is looking for an item to match one they are currently wearing. You can figure out what to suggest to them by listening to the style they say they are looking for and identifying the style of the item they are currently wearing.
• You have helped the customer previously at the Beautician or Hair Salon and they are now looking for an outfit to complete their collection.

Mannequin Outfit
Make sure to make good use of the mannequin at your Boutique as customers will purchase outfits that are put on display on the mannequin. Customers who wish to purchase mannequin outfits can be found standing by the window when you are inside your boutique. Customers will only purchase mannequin outfits if it meets their style requirements. For a detailed guide on mannequins and selling outfits, please refer to the Mannequin guide.

This customer loved the outfit on the mannequin and just had to try it on.

Bonus Sale
Sometimes customers will come in requesting one item and if you impress them with your amazing fashion recommendations, they will decide to buy an extra item. These requests are pretty basic and are easy to fulfill if you provide them with an item that matches their style. This request always appeared in Style Boutique 1/Style Savvy 2, but it hardly ever pops up in this version. The silly thing about these requests is that sometimes the customer ends up walking away in the most ridiculous outfit that doesn't match.

This girly is wearing Marble Lily so her personal style is Baby-Doll.

She loved the suggest so much that she ended up getting a skirt as well.
