What is Fashion Star Boutique?

It is a fashion-designing game that allows you to expand your fashion business, acquire clients, make money, and express yourself by making innovative, creative designs.

Clients

Clients are customers that place orders for specific items of clothing for you to design and produce for them.

Style Point (SP)

Points you collect by completing client requests, selling clothes and winning scratch-to-win prizes.

Gift Cards

The special currency that is used to buy a multitude of items including, but not limited to, new clothing, clients, additional boutique floors and even some of Anna's tips! Attain additional gift cards by levelling up, finishing bonus tasks, scratch-cards, and by purchasing them through the Market.

Client Requests

Specific clothing requests made by your clients, which if completed accurately and as per the Client's "Tastes" (See "Tastes" below), grant a large amount of SP and coins. Access your requests by clicking on the white envelopes on the left side of the screen in your studio.

Tastes

Any preferences in design or pattern that the client may have and should be included in their designs to gain additional gift cards and coins. These may be hidden at first and require some experimenting to reveal. Alternatively, you can click "Ask Anna!" on the Client Request screen to reveal tastes, however this may cost you some gift cards!

Special Orders

Client Requests with a golden envelope icon that are given once per cylce or level (whichever comes first), upon whose completion you will be awarded with up to three times the amount of coins and SP than normal requests. For these requests, the client has already chosen the piece, possibly from a locked/unpurchased pack, but want you to add your own style and flair to make it wonderful!

Facebook Requests

Requests which begin at level 3 (and reset every cycle thereafter), requiring you to complete a task on Facebook, such as sharing a design, in order to complete. These Requests are titled "Show off your Talent!" and will require you rto share your design on Facebook, once completed.

Cycle

A period of time (usually every four hours) after which, you will be given new requests and "Scratch-to-win" prizes

Scratch-to-Win

This feature is automatically activated once every cycle (about 4 hours) and gives you the chance to win any combination of SP, coins, Gift Cards, new pieces of clothing or even the Grand Prize!Some higher level bonus tasks will reward you with an extra scratch for the next "Scratch-to-win". Also, if you don't win the grand prize, you have the option to purchase more scratches until you win!

Client Referral

Bonus clients that you may receive after completing many Client Requests. This is especially useful at level 25, when all the normal Clients have been unlocked. These clients can also be purchased for 20 gift cards since they are extremely rare and not part of the general pool.

Outfit

A combination of clothing putting together by you in the Studio, which can then be displayed in your boutique and produced/sold together as a set. To create an outfit, tap the second half of the mannequin labelled "Outfit" at the centre of the screen in your studio.

Bonus Tasks

Additional goals/tasks that you can access by tapping the "Anna" icon in the bottom left corner of the screen in the studio. The "Bonus Tasks" window also displays the rewards for completing them, which are usually giftcards or coins.

DESIGNS

When creating Designs, am I able to edit my patterns?

Yes you can! Using finger-gestures on your device, you can: zoom in, zoom out, resize, slide, and rotate your material! This is done during the material overlay step (when the material is layered on top of your clothing right before you press Apply).

-*Zoom in: Put two fingers on the screen and move them apart from one another.
 -*Zoom out: Put two fingers on the screen and move them closer to each other.
 -Slide: Put two fingers on the screen and move them in the same direction.
 -Rotate: Put two fingers on the screen and rotate them simultaneously in a circle.*These gestures apply to patterns used to fill the main "sections" of your design. The same gestures can also be used to resize decorations.

When I make an outfit, is there any way for me to change the order in which the clothes are placed on the mannequin?

After you apply your clothing and have the option to press "done", you can choose which clothing lies on top of the other. The bottom of the screen displays the designs that you have placed on your mannequin. If you tap the designs, a menu will pop up with options: "Trim" and "Delete". There will also be a small red arrow. Tapping the arrow will change the order in which the clothes are placed on the mannequin.outfit

How do I unlock new clothing?

Within the market there will be 3 symbols: Coat Hangar, Coins, And Gift Cards.

How do I archive my designs?

Go to the Main Menu and click on “Portfolio” then “Current Portfolio”. Tap the "Archive" button on the bottom of your screen and hit “Okay”. This will archive everything in your current portfolio. Alternatively, when your collection is full, you will be automatically prompted to archive your portfolio when you design a new piece.

How do I delete my designs?

To delete a design tap on "Portfolio" on the Main Menu page and navigate to the specific item of clothing you wish to delete. Select it and at the bottom of the screen you will find the delete button. Keep in mind that deleted items cannot be recovered.

Can I archive just one piece of clothing?

Unfortunately, you cannot archive just one piece of clothing. You can only archive your entire current portfolio.

I accidentally archived my collection! How do I get it back?

Go to the Main Menu and click on “Portfolio” then “Archived Collections”. Find the design you want to restore, tap it, hit “Restore”. This costs 2 Gift Cards.

CLIENTS

Why isn't my entire collection available when I'm doing a Client Request?

Clients are usually rather specific about what they want e.g. scoop neck sweaters, thus only clothing that fit that criteria will be available for you to design.

How many clients are there in the game?

Currently there are 27 clients: 21 of which are unlock-able through levelling up and 6 are hidden clients that can only be obtained through referrals.

Why do I have to pay 500 coins to get a client I have already unlocked?

When you unlock a client, you gain the ability to meet them. You still have to spend a couple coins to acquire them.

How do I scroll between clients?

Tap on the Clients icon on the left window pane and select the desired client. Once you're on the Client Profile screen, you can swipe left and right to navigate to the pages of the other clients.

My client went on vacation! How do I get her back!?

Clients periodically go on vacation, they will come back after you have leveled up! Sorry for the inconvenience!

How do I find out what the client's hidden tastes are?

See "Tastes" above.

I have run out of Client Requests! What do I do now?

If you run out of Client Requests, you can use your Gift Cards to purchase new Client Requests, wait until a cycle is over or you can design clothing/outfits and sell them in your Boutique to earn Style Points (SP).

I don't have enough gift cards to complete Special Orders. How can I get more gift cards?

You can attain more gift cards by leveling up, finishing bonus tasks, scratch-cards and by purchasing them through the Market.
