Welcome to Who Wore It Better!
This competition is based on a
casual challenge/competition I entered many years ago. I really enjoyed the competition and always wanted another season of it, but the host left shortly after and never came back. Since I’ve wanted to see an S4 version, and somebody requested something similar, here we are! (Note: Sims 2 and 3 are allowed too! Just make sure to let me know when you signup and I’ll make adjustments to the assignments for each game.)
This is a competition about dressing your model in pack clothing (base game, expansion packs, game packs, and stuff packs!) and seeing who did better at wearing and flaunting it. Yes, I said packs! For this first cycle, much like the original, we will be focusing on Base Game clothing. Each round I will choose a piece of clothing (or more) that is the focus of your outfit. You will then design an outfit around that piece of clothing and come up with a theme.
Unlike Sims 3, Sims 4 does not have a color wheel which removes some of the fun and creativity of the original comp,
but I believe that this creates a unique challenge and presents a different way for you to be creative. First, you can use any packs from the Sims when dressing your model as long as the base game clothing I selected is present. Second, since there is no color wheel in S4 you can recolor clothes if you know how to,
OR you can find recolors of that outfit from someone else. I don’t see recolors of pack clothes as CC, as long as there is no mesh edit, since it’s similar to how recolors in S3 worked. It is not required for you to recolor and you can just use the base game colors, but it’s an option if you want to. I made sure to choose clothes that had lots of color options for those that can’t recolor. Also, if someone asks for help on how to recolor, please help them by linking tutorials, etc. As for CC in general, you can not use CC for the clothes, but the makeup, hair, accessories, shoes, etc. can be CC. Please make sure to be careful when dressing your model so that you don’t accidentally select CC for the clothes, otherwise there will be a point penalty.
Below the spoiler I show you where to filter clothes based on packs, colors, etc.
After you are done dressing your model, you will present your clothing in a creative way based on your theme. Did you design a party outfit? Then show your model at a party! Did you design it to be a gardening outfit? Then show them in a garden! The way you present the outfit is just as important as creating it, so make sure to do your best! Another part of the challenge is that you will only be using in-game backgrounds. You can cut out your model to add to an in-game background, or you can just do everything in-game. The choice is yours! When you submit you will also provide a description of the outfit and what inspired you.
For those curious, there are major differences between the original and this new version to not only avoid being a direct copy, but also because I wanted to change some things or needed to make some changes.
That’s it! I hope you enjoy this competition!

Assignment 8 - Finale
And here we are at the finale! This round you will be creating TWO looks, both following the same theme and in the SAME image (so 1 image for both looks, and not counting your optional pic of course). This theme can be patterns, colors, or even an idea like police officers, circus performers, etc. You can use ANY combo of genders, and you can use ANY BASE GAME clothing, including ones previously used in assignments (so no CC still for clothes). As usual, other pack clothing can accompany your look as long as at least 1 item is base game and is the star of your outfit. I would prefer you guys use two sims only, but if you feel your idea must have more sims then you can add them, but please STATE and make it obvious with your skills which 2 sims are the main focus. This is just like Round 6, but now you are doing 2 matching styles and can use previous base game clothes.
If you have any questions, please ask!
Due Date: April 10th
Submission form:
This is your submission form for each round, and you won’t be scored on what you write! This is to let the judges and other people know what your inspiration was, where they can find the recolors, etc. I always had fun filling these out when I competed and showing off my recolors for more downloads. These can be short and simple, so no need to panic!
Style Name: (If you can’t think of anything creative you can use general names like “Gardener’s Outfit”.)
Optional Recolor Link: (If you want to share your recolors with the public, or link to a creator’s website.)
Tell us what you did! (This section can be short if you’d like. What was your inspiration and why? Why did you use certain patterns or colors, or chose certain items to go with the outfit? What was the overall theme and goal?)
Photos to show off your outfit: (Either provide one good angled photo, OR do a second photo to show off the full outfit if you’re worried we can’t see it (for a total of two photos). Remember, this is a fashion competition, so we want to see the outfit clearly. That’s why I provide the option for a second photo for those new to camera work or when an idea doesn’t work out as hoped. The main image you submit still needs to be creative though and is the judging focus, the second one can be whatever as long as it displays the outfit clearly.)

Scoring Breakdown
Creativity – Did you go above and beyond? Was your idea out of the box? Are you truly using your resources to the best of your ability? Are your poses, theme, background, etc. creative and cohesive? Remember, we are looking for creative ideas and not just a sim standing there.
Styling – Did you use the required clothing item? Did you follow any other requirements? How well put together is your outfit and does the required clothing item still play a role? Is the outfit theme cohesive and look fashionable and/or useful?
Set/Background – How is your set in-game? Is it interesting? Is it properly balanced, not too little and not too much? Does the set/location complement the theme/requirements of the outfit? Was your set building and placement good? Is there anything that detracts from the model?
Composition – How your whole image is put together, and is the replacement for quality and editing. Even though we do not have a quality section, please make sure to keep your images as clear/clean as possible, when possible. The editing, if any is done, should be clean as well, meaning avoid over-sharpening, over-blurring, over-smudging, pixilation, etc. Glitches (hair going into chest, hands going into body, wonky clothes, etc.) will be ignored. Avoid plumbobs, thought bubbles, in-game effects (such as a shimmering on the sim, the “smelly” cloud if low hygiene, etc.), the hovering notification (the white outline), and remove the in-game blur in the distance (purposeful filter blurs are alright). Other elements for this section include balance (color, light, details, etc.), lighting, the filters used, angles/directions, etc. (Feel free to research this scoring section to make sure you do it right!)

**Tell us what you did:** I wanted to have a theme so I searched for a one that I could play off of well but that also gave of a contrasting flare to it. So I settled on a Grease inspired look lol on the left Giselle is sporting a Sandra Dee look with her base game sweater and skirt combo. While on the right she's sporting a Danny look with her base game leather jacket.

Congrats everyone! Thank you so much for joining my competition and I'm glad it was such a hit. For years I wondered if this idea would be well received and it turns out it was! I wish I had started it sooner. I hope you all enjoyed it, and I can't wait for next season to see more of your amazing creativity and styling. I hope to see you all in Fashionography, another comp I'm excited to see play out! I have some fun assignments planned for it.
First Place
Signature **Mizzie** - The entire setup of this image is just perfect. Spot on composition, lovely detailed background, and the models are presented nicely. Great styling too! I see a bit more goth than steampunk, mainly because of the colors. Steampunk is usually metal colors, mainly browns, and while you can expand into other colors the steampunk theme would have come through better if you had used metal colors here, or even added steampunk accessories. Great job overall though!
**Jillie** - Wow! This looks so amazing!! Both girls look great and I love that they both have the same coloured hair - I assume they are sisters? I love, love, love the styling on both of them. You can see they both have their own styles but they still match each other so well! I don't really get steampunk from it though. If you would have said gothic I would say you nailed it perfectly, and maybe that's what you were thinking of? Overall this is a gorgeous shot! The composition and posing is spot on. Awesome job!
**Will** - Ok so i actually had to google what steam punk looks like xD cause i had an idea of the style but i wasn't too sure. I see a lot of steam punk elements in here, but what would really solidify the style of steam punk here is if one of the girls wore a top hat with some goggles on. Maybe even having some gear accessorizes. I love the background and i think you did a good job with it.
Second Place
Signature **Mizzie** - Aww, so cute! I love that you always have a country flair with your entries. The background reminds me of how some of those country homes look, which is nice attention to detail. The dog is cute, and the pose the couple is in is so loving and sweet. I agree about the tights though and that bare skin would be better (tights seem to be your enemy, lol). The skulls, while odd, give the styling a nice flair, especially because the couple look (at least to me) Spanish and the mashup of styles fits. Overall great entry, and you did so well throughout this comp!
**Jillie** - Ahh! This is just the cutest photo! I really like you idea of doing a couple and I think they match each other perfectly (and that dog OMG I died)! It was a little different with using the skulls but I find it gives your basic country style a little added flare. It honestly kind of gives me a Strangerville vibe and I love that! I think my only real critique is that I would have ditched the tights on the girl - I feel that there is enough blue going on that it would have been a nice relief to have a bit more skin. Also the shadows look a little odd on the main picture.. but I assume this is an in game shot? Overall I think this was a great final picture, it was cute, unique. Great job!
**Will** - This is such a cute and romantic photo! There are definitely country aspects to their style, boots and hats, but i cannot picture this style as country because of the skulls. I believe those items were added in the game as a celebration of the Spanish holiday "Day of the Dead" They are really nice, but maybe if you recolored them (or find another version) without the skulls it would be more country. I like the idea, the background, and ofc the couple standing out from the background. Also i think you've come really far in your editing journey and i encourage you to keep improving!
Third Place
Signature **Mizzie** - Ohhh, I love the Grease theme! I think you nailed the styling, but the background doesn’t complete the image in my opinion. It feels retro, fits the Grease theme, but I think creativity wise this could have been taken further with a scene from the movie, or something else. It’s just missing that bit of flair. Great work though and keep it up! You really stepped up the last few rounds.
**Jillie** - This is such a great idea! I love that you had the model play both the rolls and I love a good opposites shot! I do kind of wish that while they were different characters that you still would of had a more cohesive background. Like maybe even with that dollhouse trend where "Sandra" looked like she was inside and "Danny" looked out in the parking lot. I do love the styling of both! Great to give "Sandra" that Pink Ladys colouring but still in her Sandra Dee styling. I would suggest with it being a bit more casual -especially with runners - to just stick with the pearl necklace and ditch the bracelet. Overall this is such a cute shot. Great job!
**Will** - Yeesss i love it when there are split themes like this! Idk why but the left one almost looks like vintage to me (like those vintage diners) probably because of the tiles, not that i mind tho. Only bits of improvement is, try to have both sides equal, the left side is a bit bigger than the right side. Also try not to cut out your sim's feet, left one, a bit is missing.
Assignment 1
Anddd that's it, because this competition has a lot of freedom. Remember, we want to see the outfit and you can use any sim, Teen to Elder!

@heather1306 (Forums)
Tell us what you did: Honestly the neon just screamed clubbing and a bit of random mayhem to your outfit (a bit like the neon style you would wear on a girls night out, like a hen)
@Jendowoz0612 (Forums)
Tell us what you did: When I saw the alternative colours provided, I chose a cool colour and it came across to me as a casual comfortable top matched with shorts that you would wear camping on a summer's day. So I decided to set up camp with my dog Elke and go fishing. Decided not to pose my model and try and catch a nice, natural expression.
@TEXASTWANGTONYA
Tell us what you did!: I Decided To Go On A Picnic On A Sunday Afternoon. It Was A Gorgeous Outside And A Sunny Day With The Birds Chirping. My Brown And Beige Design Was Perfectly Fitting For My Picnic.

Optional Recolor Link: Top and skirt
Tell us what you did! I was inspired by the Artsy Fashion style and recoloured a top and skirt.
Optional Second Photo:
@Penguinwa101
Tell us what you did!: When I saw the top I KNEW which color/variant I wanted to use.I wanted to go for a sleek luxury look so I paired with a solid white pair of fitted pants and accessorized in gold tones with a "Rich Girl" feel. So I decided it'd be a perfect Gala dinner outfit or for a wealthy fundraiser event!

WillMal13 (Discord)
Tell us what you did!: When her ex-husband died she was filled with many emotions. Sadness because he was her first love and she will forever love him. And anger/disappointment because he left her for her sister.
Optional Second Photo:
@deviouslyvivid
Tell us what you did: This top reminded me of a bridesmaids dress my Aunt was forced to wear back in the '80s. Poor thing, she had a bunch of terrible wedding party dresses.
@xJojox
Tell us what you did: Well I didn't like the neons and i knew i wanted a garden like scene for my photo. I thought the white would make her a little more focused amongst the green. When taking the picture, the rain just wouldn't stop. It rain for 3 days!!! So i decided to go for a dancing in the rain pose inspired by my newest pose pack since i wanted to test them out!
@abelhinha35
Tell us what you did: The top with the correct accessories, would be perfect for any teacher to ware. I dress her in a soft mint top with whites pants and a floral cardigan. I added floral cardigan to make it fun and interesting.
Gee (Discord)
Optional Recolor Link: Top & Bottom
Tell us what you did: The top reminded me of an old fashioned tankini top ones recoloured, so I created a sim from the 60s to show off the fashion from that era, I also recoloured the bottoms.
Sims 3
@Vanadis
Tell us what you did: I thought the top looked like something a girl-next-door would wear, and I saw the opportunity to add a country/western flair to it. I used the Pets expansion for the shorts and boots.
@gardenGothic
Tell us what you did: When I was playing around with different bottoms, I really liked how the ruffles on the bottom of the skirt compliment the flare at the bottom of the shirt, and the puffed sleeves with their little ruffled edges. I feel like the loose slouchy sandals and the springy curls bring this energy too. From there I used a lot of red because I knew I wanted to shoot outside and I like the high contrast of red and green.

__**gardenGothic (Booky) *(Forums)***__
Tell us what you did: I'm really feeling this shirt, especially since it's been so snowy where I live I used to have a white vest like this, and a white jacket with a hood like that, so this is kind of inspired by a hybrid of those two items. I went with earthy tones because I was feeling it, and it made me think of sitting by a warm fire after a long day outside

**Tell us what you did:** I started off playing around with bottoms and I really liked how the skirt builds off of the flow from the top, as well as how the wavy edges mirror the trim on the jacket. I thought it looked like a nice spring jacket so I added tights for extra warmth! I wanted to work with blues because "April showers bring May flowers" and also it's a colour I don't generally touch so I wanted to challenge myself with that. She's sitting in a waiting room at an office waiting for an appointment reading a good book.

As you can see, I’ve made changes to my usual rules/first post due to Discord/Twitter needing more info as their community is slightly different and still beginning. All of the rules, except extensions and any competition specific info of course, are the same. The difference for extensions is that they now require 8+ hours before the deadline, and last for 1 day unless you need more time (like usual). Everything else is the same and info you already know, and that is the info in “General Rules” under the spoiler. So, the only thing you need to read (if you aren’t new to competing or from Discord/Twitter) is the “Competition Info”. Easy-peasy, right?
Let me know if you have any questions!
I still need to advertise tomorrow morning for Discord/Twitter, but launching here tonight!

Alright, everything looks good now after I checked for the 100th time (almost forgot the due date ). Going to bed now, will work on advertising, etc. tomorrow morning!
I have a question about clothing choices. You said that they should be game pack only. Does that include expansion packs or only base game clothes?

Tell us what you did: Honestly the neon just screamed clubbing and a bit of random mayhem to your outfit (a bit like the neon style you would wear on a girls night out, like a hen)
Photos to show off your outfit:
Omg, thanks for pointing that out! Even though the intro has been written for several months I totally didn't remember that Game Packs are an actual thing! When I say game pack I mean any pack in general can be used. I'm going to go reword that, ack.
@heather1306 Yay first submission! Looks great!
I also changed the due date to February 12th as I know we have 2 other competitions up and running and some people are hitting their limit with competitions. Hopefully the 2 extra days help!
So it works this way: every round I give you a base game clothing piece to focus on. Like for this first assignment it is a sleeveless top. You need to take pack clothing (anything from expansions, game, stuff packs, or the base game) and design an outfit with that top as the main focus. So looking at this I could say "Oh, it reminds me of a fashionista" and then design a high fashion outfit with that top as my centerpiece. I can then use Google/CC accessories or hair to add to her look, since S4 is lacking in accessories and this is where CC enhances your chosen theme. I could download and add a unique hair and some stylish jewelry, maybe throw in a purse.
Does that make sense?
Hair, hats, shoes, etc. are accessories and can be from the game, CC, or Google.
Okay gotcha! so your example is the pink and black, but I can use any of the other combos that EA provided? This will be a great challenge for those used to CC, love the idea of this, Mizzie.
I like this concept it's simple yet original and bold! Reserve me, sweets!!!!!

Also, love that application and the bold yellow background! Great choice.
@Penguinwa101 Whaaaaa, so happy to see you here! I missed you in Muse C2. Also, congrats on graduating!
What is going to be the deal with doing Sims 3 in this? I'm thinking about joining something but I hate modeling in Sims 4 so I'd use 3 haha.
How's it going, everyone?

Vanaaaaaaa! I was getting worried about you since you've been so quiet!
Everything works the same for both games, the only difference is the clothing piece and I'll be choosing one that is as similar as possible. So right now S4 has a sleeveless top, so I'll be looking at S3 for a sleeveless top as well. If one doesn't exist, I go to the next similar style. You guys will be judged the same though, I just need to let the judges know you guys are using a different top since you are using S3 and to post the entries in groups to avoid confusion. If I notice any issues with this working I'll make some changes to reflect that, but I don't think there will be.
That's awesome, I'm thinking of this top from the... gods I don't remember what TS3 expansions are called, I think "Late Night," there's a top like this, it has spaghetti straps and I used it on so many goths haha.
Well, sign me right the hey up. I need something like this as an outlet for when I get overwhelmed with classes!
