How to Save Outfits in GTA 5 for Your Bad Boy (or Girl)

We independently assess all our recommendations. Purchases through our links may earn us a commission.

Let’s face it, we’re not just here to tear up the streets of Los Santos or pull off the craziest heists.

We’re here to look good doing it.

Whether you’re roaming the sun-soaked streets in single-player mode or flaunting your style in GTA Online, your outfit speaks volumes.

So, put those seatbelts on, style savants, as we instruct you how to save outfits in GTA 5.

Saving Your Style in Single-Player Mode

Let’s start with the basics. In single-player mode, your style-saving quest begins at your safe house. Here’s how to seal the deal on your fashion statement:

1. Head over to your safehouse – this is your fashion sanctuary.
2. Approach the wardrobe and press “E” or the button to swing open those closet doors.
3. Assemble your outfit piece by piece, crafting your in-game persona.
4. Press “Enter” or the confirmation button to embrace your new look, then strut over to your bed.
5. Save your game – this locks in your style alongside your progress.

Remember, folks, GTA 5 likes to play dress-up with your characters when you’re not looking. If you save a look for Michael, Trevor might still end up in his undies next time you switch characters. Only the chosen character’s outfit stays put across gaming sessions.

Trevor is quite notorious for this since you’ll often find him with a hangover inside a dumpster with nothing but stained underwear. For that matter, we don’t recommend making an effort on his clothes.

Elevating Your GTA Online Fashion Game

Now, onto the bustling streets of GTA Online:

1. Visit any clothing store or your apartment’s wardrobe – your style workshop awaits.
2. Select your desired garments and accessories. Mix and match like the fashion guru you are.
3. Hit the “SPACEBAR” to open the edit saved outfits menu.
4. Name your masterpiece and save it to a new slot.

Voila! You’ve got yourself a saved outfit. But wait, there’s more – you can store up to 20 ensembles! To strut in your new outfit anytime, anywhere:

1. Press “M” to open the interaction menu (select/back button/PS4 touchpad/view button on a gamepad).
2. Navigate to Inventory > Accessories > Outfits.
3. Hit “ENTER” or the confirmation button on the gamepad to select your saved masterpiece.

And just like that, you’re rocking your look on the streets of Los Santos. Thankfully, you don’t have to worry about your GTA Online character losing their style after loading back in. They don’t have the same autonomy as the Story Mode characters.

By the way!

Special Missions and Unobtainable Outfits

Craving something more exclusive? Here’s how to snag those special mission outfits for GTA Online:

1. Start the specific job that flaunts your desired attire.
2. Once in-game, open the interaction menu and tweak settings in the “accessories” tab – think of it as a fashion hack.
3. Leave the job, and voilà, you’re wearing the once-unreachable outfit.
4. Sprint to your apartment and save this rare find for future escapades.

Remember, avoid VIP status while performing this fashion sorcery, or the magic dissolves. This is a glitch, however, and it might disappear from the game without prior notice. It’s worth a shot just to see if it still works, however.
