Reset Villager's Clothing?

Sadly, mine is something that is actually inappropriate and I can't get her to stop wearing it. :( It says a swear word right across it, and I don't want my little baby Felicity wearing that. Not to mention I wouldn't want to get reported for something I didn't even give her to wear!
Oof yeah, this is the whole reason that feature exists in the first place. For it to not work has to be a glitch.
Maybe they'll fix it if we start reporting it...

This doesn't sound right. You should definitely report it to Nintendo because it could be a bug. You could also just try flooding them with clothing gifts. I have noticed that my villagers have favorites that they like to wear and don't wear clothing that isn't their favorite after I give them enough clothes that they love.
Yeah, I may try reporting it, especially knowing now that Isabelle doesn't even get rid of custom designs.
I wasn't sure at first if it was just a Thing they did in this game or not.

Though, Stitches likes to wear an eye mask and a weird hat, and I don't want to give him new accessories to replace it with, so I was hoping I could just reset his wardrobe. )':
And I want Dom back in his default shirt because it's cute lmao.
 
I'm wondering if I remove my friend if they will stop wearing the shirt, I'm so sick of it.
 
I complained to Nintendo about this. If anyone has time to sign up and vote for this issue, Nintendo might notice and address it.

I've also contacted Nintendo support about it! Hopefully more people report it because it's driving me nuts.
 
Omg, I got Beau from a trade and I guess the previous owner had given him a shirt that was not the vibe. I complained to Isabelle the first time I saw him in it, believing that I would only have to do this once. But then he just kept wearing the same darn shirt not even two seconds after me filing a complain with Isabelle. It was bothering me so much that I literally VOIDED Beau to trade for a NEW Beau hoping he wouldn't have any weird articles of clothing on him. Fortunately, this Beau is normal now, I can rest easy knowing I won't see him in that dreaded shirt 😅
 
Well eventually they will run up to you and gift you their old clothes that they got from their previous island haha. Same with furniture! It can take a few weeks tho

LMAO honestly I was so tempted to let Stitches go because he never takes off the DAL eyemask my friend gave him and it bothers me,,,, 😭
But I know I'll never find him again so I can't go through with it.

This doesn't work with custom designs, though. ):
One of my other villagers exclusively wears designs someone put in my friend's Able Sister's shop before my friend gave him to me...
Thankfully they're nothing offensive--and one of them is cute on him, but not the other lmao.

Fingers crossed!

I am so tempted to give away the Judy I adopted because of this but I went through way too much trying to trade for her and it would break my heart if I had to do that and find a “vanilla” (new) Judy!
 
I just got Audie from someone last week and the past owner gave her all these strange fashion choices. Wish I had known beforehand, hope Nintendo fixes this!
 
I just never gift my villagers hats or glasses anymore. Most clothes I can tolerate on occasion, but ugly hats and/or glasses bum me out.
 
My friend has a custom pattern in his town and my villagers keep wearing it and it's really bothering me and even tho I keep reporting they won't stop wearing it and change back to it after a while
How do your villagers wear custom pattern clothing from a different town? Genuinely curious and worried if this is true.

Found out he posted it in my Able Sister's without my permission. Even though I got it taken down, new villagers are wearing it so I think they share clothes

Oh that's still alarming too. I'm gonna have to ban my friends from going into my Able Sister's store. I thought only you can put custom designs in the store.
 
On that note, I wish there was a way to remove designs from the Able Sister's store. I even put some of my own designs up there, but I don't want my villagers wearing them anymore. It sucks cause it's like once you do it, its just there forever. and ever. and ever.

I'd also wish there was a way to reset interiors. I gave Judy a bug like the first week she was in my town cause I had just started the game and was like "let me give you whatever I have in my pockets to up our friendship level." not knowing she would keep it in her house and I just need it gone.
 
Not sure if someone already replied but it's my understanding that if you go talk to Isabelle and discuss a resident, you'll be able to pick who you want to "re-set" (you can choose either their dialogue or clothes). Although, I've never tried it myself.


Edit: NVM! I just read previous posts that said it's only temporary!
 
Mimi: Huh I never realized old designs carried over, I wonder if that's why Ribbot seems to have so much different clothing we didn't give him? At least in our case, most of them are kind of cute, but I can see how that would be a huge problem in some cases.

I had to report it, even tho it's not inappropriate and without review it got removed. My villagers still wear it, though.
 
Custom designs are like fashion trends, once one starts wearing it, the other copy.

This happened to me:
Julian ask me to give flora a gift
It was a comedian outfit, she didn't like it, neither do I, so I told her to burn it. (Thought this would prevent her from wearing it)
Today she is wearing it, she looks ugly, so I complain to Isabelle and so far she hasn't use it again.
 
Yea this sucks I had a villager that I got rid of because the villager was wearing a hideous outfit and the villager kept on wearing it even when I reported the issue to Isabelle. Had to void the villager, pretty sad unfortunately
