Building a stronger outfit
Tips
A bundle sets your body shape, skin, and face all at once. Accessories attach at different positions — face, neck, shoulder, waist, back — which means several can be worn at the same time. Animation packs change how your character walks, runs, and poses. Try an animation pack in the preview before you decide on it.
- Pick your bundle first so your base look is sorted before you start adding accessories
- Layer accessories from different attachment points — mixing a hat, a pair of wings, and a face item, for example
- Preview animation packs while wearing your outfit so you can see how the whole thing moves together
- Use multiple save slots for different themes so switching is instant

Fixing common problems
CheckBecause there's no combat or scoring, problems here are almost always technical.
- Items loading slowly switch to a Wi-Fi connection and wait a moment
- Try-on not updating on screen leave the game and rejoin
- Saved outfit has disappeared confirm you are logged in to your Roblox account, since saves don't persist without a login
- Purchased item not showing in inventory wait a few minutes, then restart the Roblox app and check again
- Community outfits taking a long time to open the collection is huge, so give it a moment
Spending Robux safely
WarnThe main risks are tapping the confirm button too fast or falling for scams outside the game.

Common questions
FAQDoes trying on an item use any Robux?
No — previewing any item is completely free no matter how many times you do it. Robux only comes into play when you choose to buy an item and add it permanently to your Roblox inventory.
If I buy something inside the game, can I use it elsewhere on Roblox?
Yes. Anything you purchase inside Catalog Avatar Creator is added to your Roblox inventory, and inventory items work in every other Roblox game. Trying something on does not add it to your inventory — you need to complete the purchase for that.
Are there any items I can get without spending Robux?
The Roblox marketplace includes items priced at 0 Robux. When you try on something in-game and find it's free, you can add it to your inventory at no cost.
How do I see outfits made by other players?
Open the browse section inside the game to scroll through community-created outfits — there are over 50 million available. You can see the individual items that make up any outfit, which makes it easy to try on pieces you spot in looks you admire.
Game updates can change what is on this page. If you spot something, get in touch and let us know.
