Is there a way to unlock work outfits?

Once a sim unlocks an outfit, that outfit will stick to this sim. So if you temporarily added a sim who has unlocked this outfit to you household, you will get access to the outfits that are locked behind a career for that household. Afterwards you can simply remove the sim. You can find sims with unlocked outfits on the gallery. The easiest way is to search for a sim with a tag saying something like unlockedoutfits or something similar.

Thank you @Atreya33 this is what I eventually did, I found a household with fisherman, maid, mailman, plumber, and a few other work outfits unlocked, added my sim to that household,, changed one of his everyday outfits to the fisherman, and then merged him back to his own family. I don’t know why they don’t just open them up for us to use. He’s already in the fisherman career, and wears the outfit to work. It seems like it should have been unlocked for him, I am curious though how you even unlock that outfit to begin with. The person who uploaded the unlocked outfits didn’t even know how she did it.

Nice to hear you found a sim with the right outfit unlocked. I didn't know it was possible to unlock the maid or mailman outfits. Good to know.
