Tuxedosam is an avid collector of bow ties and has set up the clothing shop on the island.
Tuxedosam runs his shop where you can buy Clothing, change your appearance in its mirror, and eventually learn to Dye your clothing. He likes fabric, tropical, and fancy items.
"As a fan of sophisticated and modern styles, Tuxedosam has opened a clothing shop on the island—where he can tailor new clothes for all his friends. Eventually, he creates a dye station to change the colors of clothes, allowing for nearly endless options and the wardrobe of anyone’s dreams!"
The player can give Tuxedosam up to three gifts per day, which will raise his friendship with the player. Players will receive Thread as a reward for each gift given to Tuxedosam. The amount received depends on the value of the gift and the closeness of the friendship.
If the player has reached maximum friendship level with Tuxedosam, they will receive his Character Gift Box for each gift given or quest completed.
