Bored Of The Default Options? These Are The Best Stardew Valley Mods For Customizing Your Character
The wonderful Stardew Valley community is always working hard to add fresh new things to the world of Pelican Town through the power of mods. There are mods for pretty much everything in Stardew but some of the most popular are clothing mods.
While the base game has wonderful customization, we always need more ways to make our farmer look exactly how we want them to. Cuter options, more details and new clothing are always a must-have on your modded farm to make yourself just as fabulous as the NPCs who you glammed up the instant you had access to mods.
Required Mod - Fashion Sense
The Better Character Customizer

This mod is a requirement for almost all the other mods on this list, and it makes customizing your farmer one hundred times easier. Fashion Sense is mainly a backend mod that allows player customization to be able to be manipulated and added onto in ways the base game does not allow.
It does also include a feature that makes all the mods that are compatible with it a dream to use. In regular Stardew Valley, the only way to change your character is by becoming friends with the Wizard and visiting his basement, but with Fashion Sense, you can open a menu with a Hand Mirror item to change your character in any way you wish at any time.
Hoods & Hoodies
A Gamer's Classic

Stardew has a ton of traditional casual wear that is more than appropriate for farming, but there aren't any clothes for us to recreate our gaming cave-dwelling selves! There is one piece of clothing that we are all guilty of wearing a few too many times and that is hoodies and with the Hoods and Hoodies mod, we can finally put our farmer into our cozy stay-at-home clothes.
As the name suggests, the mod adds individual hoods, hoodies and even drawstrings that you can layer on top of other clothes in the Fashion Sense menu. The best part of this mod is the dynamic hood, which will automatically put the hood up or down when entering or exiting buildings and can even stay up when it is raining or snowing.
BB's Shirts Mod
More Shirts Than You Could Ask For

Even with its countless options, Stardew's character creator still feels like it lacks the bare basics. If you just want to fix this by adding an expansive amount of fresh top wear to dress to impress your future spouse, BB's Shirts mod has you covered. No longer do you have to look like the average farmer.
This mod adds over 64 shirts to the game in a range of styles and types, with many of which having a sweet pastel color palette. It isn't just shirts though, as hidden among the additions are some fancy dresses and even dungarees if you still want to dress as a farmer despite all the wonderful options for some reason.
Seasonal Hats (Fashion Sense)
New Season, New Styles

We don't even need to ask if you installed NPC seasonal outfit mods, as we know that no one can play modded without them, but why not get some seasonal wear of your own too? The Seasonal Hats mod adds in some nice hats that will get your farmer looking more suited for each season.
Each set of hats perfectly fits within their season all the while fitting in with the classic Stardew art style. Spring has beautiful floral crowns made of freshly bloomed flowers, Summer has straw hats that shade you from the harsh sun, Fall has stylish berets to get you into the autumn mood and Winter has some cozy knitted caps to keep your head warm.
Katy's Closet No.1 And No.2
Clothes Of The Forest

With how cozy the fantasy world of Pelican Town can be, we can't help but wish we could dress our farmer up in more whimsical clothes that have a touch of cottage core style and, luckily, Kayyteee is here to rescue our dire wardrobes. The two packs from Katy's Closet add a variety of animal and nature-themed clothes that look wonderful from head to toe.
Some parts of the clothes are even animated too, things such as the adorable froggy hat blinking or the fox and racoon tails moving around as if they are actual tails. These little details, along with the absolutely stunning details of each piece of the outfits make for a fantastic set of clothes that really breathe more cuteness and life into your playthrough.
Hats And Horns
A Touch Of Fantasy On Your Head

Hats are one of the best parts of customizing your character and the plethora of wacky hats found in the game leave us craving even more to add to the mix. The Hats and Horns pack does exactly that, adding 20 fashionable fantasy-inspired hats along with some horns and antlers for those looking to add a touch of mystical folklore to their farmer.
Many of the hats are animated or dye-able, allowing you to look stunningly whimsical in a witch's hat or a mushroom cap. There are even some precious Pokemon-themed hats of Pikachu and the underrated starter Bulbasaur that we can't help but adore and, surprisingly, they don't look out of place at all and neither do any of the other hats.
Cozy Scarves
Wooly Winter Wonderland

When it gets chilly in winter, there aren't many base game options to make your farmer look like they are dressed appropriately, which is unlike the wonderful NPCs of the valley, but modders always come to the rescue. If it's cold outside, the first thing that many of us grab a wooly neck protector in the form of a scarf.
With the Cozy Scarves mod you can don a neck warmer when the frosts of winter hit your farm in game too, and they look brilliant. Including over 15 scarf accessories, many of which are animated to flow in the wind and can even be recolored, there is no better way to keep warm in the coldest season of the year.
HxW Sweetheart Hairstyles - Curls, Updos And Bobs
Absolutely Fabulous Curls

The lack of curly hair options in the base game greatly disappoints someone like myself who takes pride in their real-life curls, so thankfully, mods tackle this issue. Hairstyle mods are some of the best around and, yes, it might be a tad bit biased to include this one since it is the one I personally always use but the curly styles it adds fit perfectly within the game.
Some mods can look drastically different from the base style of Stardew, but this hairstyle pack remains faithful to the original hairstyles while also giving you some pretty cute options. With over 17 new hairstyles to choose from, each of which varies in length and cut, you won't be disappointed with how stylish your farmer looks with a new sweetheart haircut.
Missy's Shirts
Never Enough Shirts

Not all of us want to deck out our character in detailed dress-up clothes like most of the community wants and if you just need some plain additions to your game, Missy's Shirts has you covered. With a simple style that matches the original style, there are countless shirts for you to try on and enjoy and there is bound to be at least one item for everyone.
As far as just bulking out your library of shirts, you won't find a better mod that gives you numerous options that feel just like vanilla items. They may not be mind-blowing, but the more grounded design of these tops is perfect for those who want to keep their Stardew experience as grounded in reality as they can, even despite the creative world and cozy farming.
SH's Animals And Myths Pack
Unleash Your Inner Animal

Being able to turn your farmer into a half-human, half-animal hybrid, is a dream of many players, and with the valley being filled with talking animals such as the lovable Hat Mouse, it's a shame that we get left out. Luckily, you won't have to go play Animal Crossing to get your animal fix, but can instead check out a mod.
SH's Animals and Myths pack adds a massive pool of over 170 accessories, hats and clothes to allow you to dress up your farmer as a range of animals. From wings to antennas to even mythical fox tails, this pack adds as many creature features as you could ever want and any of the wonderful items turns any farmer from your average Joe into a fantasy dream.
