Dressmaker achievement conditions and progress

What can I check before chasing an achievement?

The official Steam achievement page shows 32 achievements. Current game files contain 27 achievement definitions, one of which is labelled as a test item, plus five direct dress checks and one story command. That count is a useful cross-check; it does not establish which internal condition belongs to every official, especially hidden, Steam display name. The headings here describe conditions and are not presented as official achievement names.

These are code and asset conditions checked for the current build. The game and Steam popups have not been tested in a client. A condition for an archived commission is about its recorded outcome: an accepted failed result can count, while a submission returned to unfinished for retry has not been archived.

Dress checks

The five direct dress checks run around submission, confirmed sale and gift-recipient selection. The checks describe the garment at that moment; they do not necessarily require a successful commission.

• Estimated garment cost: rounded estimated fabric plus accessory cost ≥ 5,000 coins. This is the current dress estimate, not accumulated shopping expense or net profit.
• Placed accessory path length: summed path lengths of all accessory states ≥ 50 game length units. The code does not filter to trim items; 50 itself meets the threshold.
• A specific ruffle skirt: the skirt is the Ruffle Skirt definition. A merely similar silhouette is not the same check.
• Accessory states: at least 300 placed accessory states. Beads counted inside one accessory state do not make 300 states; 300 meets the threshold.
• Quality without customer fit: the no-customer quality result is ≥ 99.5. That result is rounded by the quality method, so 100 passes and 99 does not. See commission quality for the distinction from customer-fit quality.

Archived commissions and reports

The game assets also define conditions based on archived commission outcomes and reports read to completion. For commission conditions, “at least failed” includes an accepted failed outcome or success; it does not require every one to succeed. Examples include Pigeon Adoption, Crowning Glory, Raven Rising, World Stage, Opera Night, Diplomatic Outreach, Sewn in the Stars, Painted Dream, Bold Tigress, Comfortable Coffin, Constellation Inspiration, Dark Emissary and Gala Supporter. There are also twelve separate checks for seeing a particular event report to its end. Simply unlocking a report is not the same as reading it.

Story conditions and hidden paths — spoilers

One multi-commission condition checks eight specific archived side-quest endpoints: Tomb Raider, Detective Dorothy, Unstained Beauty, Best Baker, Cat Amongst Pigeons, Perfect Picnic, Fainting Dress and Good Aunt. Each must be archived with at least an accepted failed outcome. This check is not simply “all 24 side quests succeeded”; the listed quests can still have their own prerequisites.

Another story command appears in Exotic Moth: choosing Vivian's “Leech.” reply in the pet conversation reaches the command before the later joke choice or dress handover. This is a checked dialogue path, not a tested Steam popup.
