Sims wearing all the same weird outfit at festivals

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.46.18.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All, except the deluxe edition
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I get it everytime my sim is travelling to a festival or the flee market
What happens when the bug occurs? Everytime my sim is travelling to the flee market or a festival all the other sims that are spawning there wear a group outfit, which is a pair of grey joggings with this white tank top that is full of colour spots. So far it has happened every time I go to one of these festivals. This is just one of many bugs I am experiencing since the season expansion pack and currently it is not fun to play the game anymore. I even tried to fix the bug with mods that prevent sims putting on special outfits for festivals, but that does not help either.
What do you expect to see? Sims not wearing a weird group outfit
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. Since the season expansion

Everytime my sim is travelling to the flee market or a festival all the other sims that are spawning there wear a group outfit, which is a pair of grey joggings with this white tank top that is full of colour spots. So far it has happened every time I go to one of these festivals. This is just one of many bugs I am experiencing since the season expansion pack and currently it is not fun to play the game anymore. I even tried to fix the bug with mods that prevent sims putting on special outfits for festivals, but that does not help either. 

Other bugs I also have:

Invisible plants in the wild (all of them except if they were already grown plants when you start the game), sometimes they become visible if they produce something, but most stay invisible and don't produce anything 

Plants not producing any fruits etc. in science lab. Don't need watering there either but start smelling bad even though they look healthy. But you can throw them away if you want to. When you come back the next day they are fine again. 

Sims not going to work when toddler is home, I have to go with the sims or they just won't show up, but there are no penalties (so game acts as if sim went to work, but you won't get paid) 

Wrong decoration is up on the house, that I never picked 

No 40x40 gallery search button

Sims not part of the current family I play ignore thunderstorms and have bbq's in the pouring rain

    @Tikaania Yeah, those are situational outfits then. Thought they were all wearing the same thing.

    Your active Sim doesn't change into situational outfits
  • Ok Thank you. I did google this, but could find nothing on it. Now I will also dress my sim in the correct colours for the festivals 🙂

    @Tikaania , yes, @HighlandGaming and @crinrict  are right.  🙂  It is nice to dress with the theme of the festival you are at, but there is an advantage to doing the opposite... it makes you be able to find your Sims easily if they are dressed different from everyone else!  This is especially handy if you bring multiple Sims from your household to the festival!  😉

    Also, I really don't like brown clothes.... I like brown for natural things like hair, skin, eyes, fur, and wood, but not clothing.  So I never have my Sims wear brown to the Spice festival!  (I also find it odd that the Spice Festival T-shirt that you can win for eating the spicy curry at the contest area is in red and yellow instead of brown. I think it would make more sense if it all matched either way!) 😃

    Is there a cheat to edit the festival outfits? A lot of the sims that wear dresses as their festival outfits will suddenly have no pants on once they purchase and equip a festival t-shirt and so I am just surrounded by pants-less sims the whole festival.

    Sorry, this was the only forum or page I found where someone was having a similar problem.
