New Carnival Costumes and Party Hats in the Wardrobe

The Rio carnival may be months away, but with all the new party spaces in the game we thought that it would be fun to release a batch of carnival costumes and funky hats for you to play with.

Other random bonus additions: bathrobes and ... Cthulhu masks! Zille-O-Ween is behind us, but Halloween is yet to come, after all. ;)

    *try on peacock top hat*
    Me: BUY ALL THE CREDITS.

    I'm a soft touch.

  • I've just noticed the 'Membership Locked' icon on certain items. What does that mean?
    Oh and the new items...beautiful!
    Posted 14 months ago by MaryLiLamb Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Yay! While none of the new clothes appealed to me you did encourage my to buy some new threads, so woo for that!

    I DO like the festive hats though...

  • dressing gowns, eh? 

    oh man,  now I just need to know where my towel is.

  • I was also wondering what the 'Membership Locked' meant.  Does this mean if I purchase it I cannot use it unless I also have a membership?
    Posted 14 months ago by Jojin Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Also, are the new Halloween or any of the items limited time only?
    Posted 14 months ago by Jojin Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Stop making such awesome items! 
    ._.
    No fair. You made my Glitch go and get a gender change.
    I was happy being a cowboy!

  • Oh my - I look simply gawgeous now with my carnival head piece.  Thanks for bringing so much fun to dressing up or down ;)

  • Membership lock means an item is available for purchase by subscribers only.
    No items are available for a limited time only (that I am aware?)

    The hats are super fab, love them!

  • OMG! OMG! OMG! OMG!!!!!!!!!!
    Rio carnival <3
    I can't believe u did that, as a brazilian who loves Mangueira I have to say that I would never expect that!!! This is so cool! Wonderful! Awesome! Perfect! Incredible! Lovely!

    yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!! TS u're the best!

    When the "samba" musicblocks will come? Now I need to teach samba to my friends! hahaha

    edit: Since Mangueira colors are green/pink and Beija-Flor is blue/white, the outfits seems swapped. Just a suggestion :)
    Posted 14 months ago by acreditando Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Que gracinha (so cute)...!

    But as Acreditando said, the colors are swapped... Mangueira is pink and green. Blue and white is for Beija-Flor (and Portela, too). ;-)

    Btw, did you know? Mangueira means "mango tree"; beija-flor means "hummingbird".

  • Eeeee! Peacock top hats!!!!
    Posted 14 months ago by Feylin Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Just because it wouldn't be complete without me bothering you for something else sugarQb :D

    Is there any chance of some high heels that match the Porto de Pedro Passista outfit?  
    Nothing quite goes with it at the moment, and I've tried on every single pair of shoes. They're either too clumpy which doesn't go with the skimpyness of the outfit, or they just don't quite match right.  
    I've been going around barefoot, but that can't be hygenic o_o   I nearly stepped in a peat bog earlier and that would have ruined my feathers!

  • I do love love love my Cthulhu mask. (Although I wish the tentacles gave a shake while laughing.)

    Thank you, sugar/TS clothiers!

  • You guys are great!  Really hard to resist!

  • Oh i just love love love my comfy new bathrobe!  Just in case the Giants are listening, i am waiting (trying to be patient) for a few things ~ lights on the bottom of my bunny slippers like on my tennies ~  i just love sparkly! And please Giants please, tiaras ~ for different occasions of course, one for morning (to go with the robe), one for about town, and of course one for evenings and parties. 

    In the meantime, if you see me bounding around kissing folks in the morning or late at night in my robe and slippers, don't worry, just know i am a happy morning person and can't go to sleep at night till i have kissed everyone nite nite :)

  • Yay bathrobes!!!!! I can wear it with my bunny slippers. It would be cool to have a headpiece that looks like curlers and a mask (like for skin care). Maybe that would be hard to design.

  • TIL we can trawl the wardrobe based on keywords, eg:

    http://www.glitch.com/wardrobe/#!tag.blue for all blue items

    Sweet :D

  • SOOOOOOOOOOOO CCCCOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!

    Now wishing I could get an advancement on my credits so I can buy these new clothes right NOW
    Posted 14 months ago by Laurali Subscriber! | Permalink
  • ps: I noticed there is not a tiara yet, that should be added!  I am the Prince(ss) of Shimla Mirch!

  • Would it be possible to add a hat or other headgear without removing one's hair?  That's a rather more radical change than everybody might desire -- you could always add an option to "replace" or "add" to current head look . . .
    Posted 14 months ago by confowsled Subscriber! | Permalink
  • Not all hats and headgear remove all hairstyles anymore. A lot of them go with most of the hairstyles (speaking in general and not about these specific additions). They changed it quite a while ago in beta.

  • The top hats are a great style to wear with the ren gowns, even if the colors are off.

  • I broke down and spent another $25 for clothes. I'm so ashamed. >.<
    Posted 14 months ago by Widdershins Subscriber! | Permalink
  • acreditando and Caralampia - I originally named the costumes after samba schools in Rio without paying attention to their actual colors so I've swapped the names for Mangueira and Beija-Flor outfits. Thanks for the tip :)

    Jojin - I'm sure we'll have limited time items available in the future, but the clothes in this batch should be around for a while. We'll let you know if an item is available for a short time only.

  • Widdershins, you may feel ashamed, but you look fiery! :)

    I love several of the hats! But they make me lose my cute hair. I haz a sad.

  • I love the peacock hats and when I tried one on with my dreds and they didn't dissapear I was so happy. I bought one on that first day. Well today I was playing around and trying some other things on and now I can't seem to keep the dreds with the peacock hat on at the same time. :( what happened??
