Hello, I noticed there’s no clothing shop in Sinder and that made a particular shopping trip a bit tricky. So, I want to open one!
I’ve put together an area already for The Catwalk which contains a variety of clothing ideas and includes sizes for our shorter and larger residents, as well as a little ‘local goods’ section to encourage some extra participation. My hope is that it can be a fun ‘shopping excursion’ for outfits and such, with a bonus easily-washable changing area where clearly nothing will ever happen nope perfectly innocent there.
I’d love it to be linked somewhere in Sinder proper. Would this be possible? kitten eyes
I saw this topic after I started to write this, but still think it’s worth a new post.
I know Sinder is like, a little busy. But, you don’t know how many times RP has naturally come to ‘I want to go to a store to buy’ clothes. Has come for me. It’s a very common theme and should be heeeere.
Ooooh! I love the idea of a clothing store. Of course everyone wants to be in Sinder, but it’s a sleepy little town. More old-fashioned than fashionable, right? Can’t let urban sprawl eat up our little slice of quaint! But heyyyyy… the City of Woodford just West of Sinder proper would be PERFECT for a fiery entrepreneur to open up a new strip mall shop or a fancy store along the road! What’s more archetypal than the ‘trip into town’ to go shopping? n_n
If you’re interested, I’d love to have you! Feel free to post or mail me a #RoomID and I can set it up for review!
Ah sorry, I forgot to include the room ID: ‘coagiee9gbrr9s0opmig’
I’d like to make the changing room an instance for privacy, but I can’t do that myself unfortunately. I also still need to find an image for the changing room. But anyone is free to take a look! I want to keep it more on the cozy side and less on the big strip mall side, generally. Maybe Woodford still?
I mean, there’s only as much space in Sinder, isn’t it? It’s a small town.
Do’nezo could benefit from a clothing store too, the market is a prime location for new wear. But it has a very specific theme that the catwalk doesn’t fit.

I think it’s somewhat unreasonable to try and cramp everything in Sinder and there’s already too much. It’s unfeasible to remove stuffs from the town, but I really don’t see a problem of travelling 4-5 rooms to a shop you want to roleplay in. The experience shows it will just be another empty place seldomly visited by passerbys. There are more than enough empty rooms in a stone throw distance from the park.
The buildings in Sinder serve two purposes: to add more to the worldbuilding of sinder specifically (like the lighthouse) or to serve for gathering the people (like foxhole).
There is no story component to a clothing store and it won’t be a place that gathers crowds, so I’m not convinced there is any meaning to put in in Sinder specifically.
Thank you for all the help, you made it very easy!
And to answer a bit to the above discussion, I’ll clarify that I don’t envision this as a ‘hangout place’. Everyone is certainly welcome to hang out there, but my focus is more on a fun destination for a scene. So it seems the consensus of Woodford works out, as it’s still easy to get to from Sinder proper since it’s just over the bridge!
