Friendly Thursday: Esmerelda

Esmerelda doesn’t have time for your nonsense. She’s busy deciding on the latest fashion trends and working to keep Subeta looking stunning. Details of the populace’s incompetence do not interest her.
But many things displease Esmerelda. Many MANY things. You’d have to try really hard to get her to stop what she’s doing and focus on you, though. If you can figure out what it is you have to do to grab her attention, be prepared for a one-on-one appointment with the most scathing personal critique of your life. That’s all.
Once you unlock Esmerelda, she will appear in the Secret Tab.
Unlocking Esmerelda is not limited to just this month like with our Throwback Challengers. While we'll continue releasing a challenger on the second Thursday, you'll have plenty of time to unlock them.

Oh wait, ignore the 50 items bit, it 1: Doesn't allow that many and 2: Didn't load it as my left button is broken so didn't click/work. I was still wearing Starmates outfit, but only with the items I had in my wardrobe. Still went in to the shop via the map though.

I don't think that's true cos the outfit I wore was something I put together previously and I didn't wear anything that was somebody else's.

Also, before I forget, I only had two of the items costerboster has. SO I don't think it's a layering thing. I think it's a copying thing.

I don't know how to do a spoiler, sorry.
I had 50 items and went to Subeautique via the map. No outfit found

I copied @Costerboster outfit, and it worked for me. I think you have to be wearing something that someone else has.

Do we know exactly how to get this challenger?
I'm on my phone and the wardrobe feature is near impossible to use.

Based on what everyone was saying, I picked one of my older outfits that I've made before in the past and figured it would work. I was right!

It seems it did have something to do with the fact that she loaded Starmates's outfit. Maybe the wardrobe thought she was wearing an outfit? A few people have said using someone else's outfit worked even when the didn't own the items, which sounds like a glitch.

Just got challenged and have a feeling it could be -

Wearing multiple items on the same layer with different colour names within the item's name? I got it with a Deadpool cosplay HA which uses multiple red, black and crimson items layered up but no duplicate items (none are the same item but in a different colour).
I think it would be amusing if it turns out that
Spoiler (click here to toggle)
she really doesn't like copying and you need to happen to be wearing at least one of the same things as the person who just visited before you

Try different colors like Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Purple, Pink, White, Gray, Brown, Black, etc.


Having 15 masks on didnt work. Tried having 15 items , and then I also tried one thing in every layer.

I still think we were kind of close with the colors thing. If it's not different colored items in the same layer or same item type, maybe it's just a certain amount of items with a color in the name? Like wearing too many different colors in one outfit so they don't go together, because if you notice her outfit is all just one color...
If that's not it, then I got nothing.

I was working at multiple layers of unflattering items. Nothing worked with this HA until I added three head layers. I did not try one or two head layers first, I just went straight to three. I don't know what the key is, except it appears to be an inability to put together a nice outfit. 8P No outfit found


Hey, maybe this will work for someone too =) I used Starmates version, but with some changes.

I only had 3 of the wearables from Starmates, and one Subeautique Invitation in my inventory (nothing else was in my inventory). Then i visited the subeautique. I only wear three items on three different layers.

could it have to do with which colors you're wearing? I notice both outfits up there have turquoise...but that didn't work for me. So maybe turquoise and orange? but if there's also a matter of how much you're wearing...hm. I don't know how to test just the colors without possibly not wearing enough items.[/hider]

I don't think the "multiple colors of the same items" works, actually I got with lots of different items in the body layer. I tried with the same item in different colors in legs layer and it didn't work previously... and Starmate's outfit didn't have that many items of different colors, only 6 unique face items

Maybe it's covering your clothing? I can recall that I couldn't really see my avatar or myself when I unlocked her, if that helps. LOL GL guys.

Oh yeah, the thing about different colored versions of the same items would make sense, I was wearing some masks in the face layer that had different colors in the name but otherwise same item, so that's a good theory.
Also you probably do need an active invitation to be able to unlock her, in addition to whatever the solution is.

Managed to unlock her - some thoughts

I think the layer with the multiple items might need to be at the top of the item list in the wardrobe. After looking at Starmates outfit, I just went to the wardrobe and tossed several foregrounds on (all showed up on top) and that worked. pumpkins outfit also has several of the same layer on top.
One other thought - might need something that covers some of your clothing????

@Laurey's suggestion worked...

I wore 27 items in body layer, but it seems like since User not found: starmate's outfit worked, it's 6 items in the same layer at least, probably the 6 items consecutively, because I wore almost 10 leg items but with other layers between them and it didn't work
I went randomly through my Wardrobe put as many items as I could on without regard to where they should be on top of each other or below and walked through her front door. Success! I have no idea why though.

I think people are on the right track with layers.. maybe it's when you're wearing too many? Maxing out the amount of wearables didn't work but visiting her while wearing something on each layer seemed to work.

Also I did click "vaults" on my sidebar (on the right side) then when I saw all my currency vaults I clicked Sub from there....not sure if that helps/matters.

Spoiler (click here to toggle)
Maybe it has something to do with the colors you are wearing? The 10 items I added to my outfit all had different colors in the names.

Wonder if you actually have to have an invite redeemed to get her to challenge you... when you meet the criteria....

Maybe this will help?
I put on 30 pieces of clothing and didn't unlock the challenger -- but I had no invites to Subeautique, so I got the "come back when you have an invite". Without changing my avatar, I got an invite and went back, and that unlocked the challenger. Perhaps you need 30 clothing items PLUS an invite to unlock Esmerelda?


Hmm, it's weird that some things seem to be working but others aren't.
Spoiler (click here to toggle)
I think it definitely has to do with wearing a lot of items in the same layer, but IDK for sure about the specifics of what else you can wear. Like I wore only face items and had to take my other clothing off because it wouldn't work otherwise.

it’s not just about layers/number of items which is why it's working for some people and not others!
