Dress to Impress: All 5 Gem Locations to Unlock the Secret Door

Every gem puzzle in Freeplay Mode, the five lantern spots, and how to claim the Scarlet Doll reward.

Every gem puzzle in Freeplay Mode, the five lantern spots, and how to claim the Scarlet Doll reward.

The wooden door tucked inside the beach cave in Dress to Impress is sealed by a five-pointed star lock, and each point matches one colored gem hidden somewhere on the map. None of the gems are simply lying on the ground. Each one spawns only after you finish a small task, and the door stays shut until you have all five.

Quick answer: In Freeplay Mode, touch the hanging plant in the Dressing Room (Green), turn all four runway spotlights red (Red), carry the pink book from Lana’s kitchen to the Diva High School classroom bookshelf (Purple), smash the piggy bank with the hammer and drop the coin in the fountain (Blue), and light all five beach lanterns (Yellow). Pick up each gem after it spawns, then return to the cave.


Secret door requirements in Freeplay Mode

The gem hunt only exists in Freeplay Mode. Standard runway rounds do not spawn the puzzles, so if you are in a normal match, none of the triggers below will do anything. Use the Teleport button in the bottom-left corner of the screen to switch over, or pick Freeplay Mode from the Select Server menu when you launch Dress to Impress on Roblox.

The cave itself sits on the right-hand side of the beach, down the path opposite the Scarlet Fierce NPC. Walking inside before you start is worth doing once, since the wall symbols and the star lock show which colors you still need. Nothing here costs Robux, and the gems can be collected in any order.

Green and Red Gems: Dressing Room and runway

These two are the fastest, and both are indoors, so clear them before you head outside.

Walk to the corner of the Dressing Room opposite the Skin Tones section. A plant pot hangs from the ceiling above the vanity booths.
Jump so your avatar touches the pot. The Green Gem drops out and can be picked up straight away.
Head to the runway hall. Four stage lights line the podium, two on each side.
Click the glass part of each light to cycle its color, and stop when all four are red. The Red Gem appears in the middle of the runway.

Purple and Blue Gems: Lana’s house, the school, and the fountain

Both of these start in Lana’s house, so it makes sense to grab the book and the hammer on the same trip.

In the kitchen and dining area of Lana’s house, pick up the pink book sitting on the table.
Carry it to the Diva High School area in the Recording Studio. Go through the door in the middle of the lockers to reach the classroom.
Place the book on the bookshelf. The Purple Gem spawns outside the classroom, in the hallway with the lockers.
Go back outside and check the right-hand exterior wall of Lana’s house, near the hole and the loose planks. The hammer is on the ground there.
Take the hammer upstairs to Lana’s room and break the piggy bank on the dresser. A gold coin drops on the floor, and the prompt reads “I can break something with this” while you are holding the hammer.
Carry the coin to the garden room next to the house and throw it into the fountain. The prompt changes to “Maybe I can make a wish with this,” and the Blue Gem appears.

Yellow Gem: All five lantern locations on the beach

The Yellow Gem takes the longest because the five lanterns are small and spread across the beach and the area around the yacht. Clicking one lights it up, and the gem only spawns once all five are lit.

When the fifth lantern lights, “A gem has been revealed!” flashes on screen and the Yellow Gem appears along the path. Walk into it to collect it.

Every completed puzzle fires the same “A gem has been revealed!” message before the gem spawns.

Opening the cave door and claiming the Scarlet Doll

A counter tracks your progress, moving from “1/5 Gems Found” up to “5/5 Gems Found.” Once it hits five, the prompt “I should return to the cave now!” appears. That message is your confirmation that every puzzle registered.

The return prompt only appears after all five gems are in your inventory.

Walk back down the beach path into the cave. The gems slot into the star lock automatically and the wooden door swings open, revealing an underwater-themed room full of floating bubbles.

The bubbles are an obby. Jump from one to the next until you reach the treasure chest at the top, then interact with it and press the Lost Treasure claim button. That unlocks the Scarlet Doll, a toggle for the Lana Doll accessory, along with a badge for finishing the quest. A pop-up reading “Unlocked” confirms the reward has been added.

Why a gem does not spawn

Nearly every failed attempt comes down to one of a handful of things.

  • You are not in Freeplay Mode. The puzzles do not exist in the regular game modes.
  • A gem spawned but was never picked up. Spawning it is not enough — you have to walk into it for the counter to move.
  • Only some of the runway spotlights are red. All four have to be cycled to red at the same time.
  • One lantern is still unlit. Four out of five does nothing; the beach and both sides of the boat all need a sweep.
  • The book was picked up but never placed. It has to go onto the classroom bookshelf, not just be carried into the school.

With a clean run, all five gems take roughly five to ten minutes, and the bubble obby adds a couple more. The Scarlet Doll arrived alongside the Summer 2025 update and the Scarlet Fierce treasure hunt, and the developers have not said whether it stays in the game permanently — so if you want it, it is worth clearing before the event content rotates out.
