Quick steps

  1. Read the theme. Pick one clear interpretation straight away.
  2. Build the silhouette. Start with the main pieces that define the outline.
  3. Match colours. Choose a small palette and stick to it.
  4. Finish and pose. Add hair, makeup and accessories, then pose on the runway.

Read the theme quickly

Every round starts with a theme. The best players decide on one idea in the first few seconds. For a theme like “Ocean”, you could be a mermaid, a sailor or a beach model. Picking one saves time and gives your look a clear story, which voters notice. Avoid mixing several ideas into one outfit; it confuses the message.

Start with the silhouette

Voters see your outfit for only a moment, so the overall shape matters most. Start with the pieces that define your outline, such as a dress, coat or big skirt. Then add layers. A strong silhouette reads well even from a distance on the runway.

Use colour on purpose

A small palette of two or three colours looks polished. Use the colour tools to match pieces, and repeat your main colour in accessories, nails or makeup. Bold contrast can work for themes like “Villain” or “Neon”, but keep it intentional.

Hair, makeup and accessories

Many players run out of time before finishing hair and makeup. Do these early, right after the main outfit. Accessories add personality: a crown for royalty, a bag for shopping, a hat for travel. One clever accessory can make your look memorable.

Own the runway

Choose a pose and walk that match the mood of your outfit. A confident pose helps voters remember you. Some players pick a signature pose they use often; others change it to suit each theme.

Free items and VIP

Some items need VIP, but plenty of free items can win rounds. Redeem working codes from our Dress to Impress codes page to add free pieces. Learn which free items are most versatile, like basic tops and skirts that layer well.

Practise common themes

Some themes come up often. Plan a go-to look for each, such as a classic look for “Old Money” or a bright look for “Summer”. When the theme appears, you can build faster and spend extra time polishing details.

Common mistakes

  • Going off-theme for a “cool” outfit.
  • Too many colours.
  • No hair or makeup changes.
  • Rushing the runway pose.
  • Ignoring accessories.

Remember to have fun

Votes can be random, and you will not win every round. Enjoy experimenting with styles; the more you play, the better your instincts get.

Popular themes to prepare for

  • Old Money: neutral colours, tailored pieces, simple jewellery.
  • Y2K: bright colours, low-rise looks, bold accessories.
  • Villain: dark palettes, sharp silhouettes, dramatic makeup.
  • Beach Day: light fabrics, sun hats, sandals.
  • Royalty: gowns, crowns, rich colours like gold and deep red.

Having a plan for these saves valuable seconds and lets you focus on details that stand out.

Use the camera and lighting

Some versions of the game let you adjust lighting or camera angles on the runway. If available, use them to show your outfit at its best.

In short

Pick one clear idea for the theme, build a strong silhouette, use two or three colours, finish hair and makeup early and pose with confidence. Redeem codes for free items, practise common themes, and above all enjoy experimenting with new looks.
