Current and upcoming events
Custom Competitions update (October 24)
The next update goes live on October 24, 2026 at 4:00 PM ET (3:00 PM CT, 1:00 PM PT, 8:00 PM UTC) and is scheduled to run through October 26 at the same time. It is the headline item on the calendar, with about 10,000 players marking interest ahead of the start — well clear of any recent drop.
According to the developer’s event listing, the centerpiece is a set of Custom Competitions: players can spin up their own competition room, pick a theme, and open it to others, or join rooms hosted on any server to design, submit, and vote on entries. The update also adds reworked dress patterns, new fabrics to mix, and new lace options for accessories.
Recent updates
Make Dresses has been shipping updates at a steady, roughly weekly pace through October, each arriving in the late afternoon Eastern.
The most recent was a Halloween update that ran October 17–18, drawing nearly 5,000 interested players. The developer’s notes describe a Halloween map makeover, themed fabric and accessory crates with a new interface, holiday commissions from new clients, and a Halloween round of the game’s global competition.
Before that, the Global Competition mode itself launched in an update over October 10–11 — the feature that lets players design to a set theme, submit their look, and vote on everyone else’s — which drew a smaller crowd of under 600. The earliest of the recent run, a Co-Play update that opened October 4 and stayed live through October 11, added side-by-side dressmaking with friends, selectable thread colors, and full console support, pulling in about 1,800 interested players.
