When I create a sim, I go through the painstaking task of creating 5 different outfits for all of the categories but I've found that I almost never ever change them. For "Everyday" I always create 2 summery type outfits like shorts and a t-shirt or a skirt and tank, then I always create some "cooler" weather transitional outfit like shorts or capris with a hoody and then I create 2 winterish outfits. So my 5 outfits are season appropriate for when the seasons change, that's usually when I actually "change outfits" deliberately so it looks like my sim is dressed for the season that is currently in the game.
I mean, of course they change into cold weather/hot weather, swimsuit, and sports wear on their own when appropriate, but I hardly ever go to the dresser or closet and actually change clothes.
How often do you guys change your sims clothes?

I have 5 for each outfit category and I changed only all of everyday outfits.
like they get married or go to uni or they turn occult or be widowed or whatever
also sometimes i just feel like what i dressed them in is ugly or does not fit character so i change it
or maybe my sims jump time period to another when their fashion changes according to era
I don't tend to create lots of extra outfits at the start though they just increase while i play

The most time I spent changing any Sims' clothes is when the hot/cold weather category was introduced in the patch before Seasons. When that happened, I spent a lot of time giving every premade an outfit in each of those categories after I got the pack. I also gave some an updated wardrobe in other categories as well and did a bit of physical modifying to a few. Mostly just hair and make-up though.
Happy Simming!
Oh yeah and when they age up a tend to update their clothes to better fit how they are at that stage of their life.

They can get many outfits if they are a style influencer or if they are a character based off a movie or long running show. It's just fun to me to watch and have CAS open and try to remake their style.
Other times I have sims that I really don't know what to do with fashion-wise, and I end up using premade styles just to have one decent-looking outfit per category except cold weather. My sims always get two cold weather outfits, one for when it's cold inside and one for going outside, because it looks silly when they run around in the house wearing coats, caps and gloves. So far I have never had a sim with every category full.
Something wicked this way comes!
I don't use MCCC.
Once in a while I’ll go in and revamp their outfits if it’s been years and I’ve gotten much better cc, or if my conceptualization of the character has changed substantially. But I like consistency for the most part.
Same here.
