📋 About This Mod


 Every year the Flower Dance comes around. Same time, same month, every year. You'd think that the local farmer would start to learn, but no matter how many years go by, the farmer never seems to get the memo that overalls aren't proper attire for a formal dance! Nor is random squatting the same as dancing!
This mod sets out to finally fix that.

Flower Dancing is split into 2 mods that work together.

  • []Flower Dance Attire: A Content Patcher mod that makes the farmer wear proper attire to the dance. Guys will have suits and girls will have dresses. It does this by replacing the player's underwear texture with a suit or dress depending on the gender.

NOTE: This only happens when at the festival and looks best when paired with an NPC outfit mod like Seasonal Villager Outfits or Seasonal Outfits - Slightly Cuter Aesthetic.

  • []Flower Dancing: A SMAPI mod that modifies the Flower Dance dancing sequence. This is to allow the player to properly mimic the dances that the NPCs do.
NOTE: For some reason, the player seems to dance at a slightly faster rate then the NPCs (even though the code says they are the same length of time).

I may fix this in a later version, when I have the time.

 
How To:

Wearing a dress or suit:

By default, your shirt, pants, shoes, and hat with be automatically removed once you enter the Flower Dance (credit to Goldenrevolver for coding this part).

If you do not want this, you can disable "Auto Remove Attire" within the mods config.json file (Found in "FlowerDancing" after having launched the mod once).

Alternatively, you can use Generic Mod Config Menu to disable or enable this feature while the game is launched. The option will be listed under "Kelly's Flower Dancing".

If you have "Auto Remove Attire" disabled, you will have to remove your shirt, pants, shoes, and hat manually for the mod to appear properly. The dress or suit replaces the normal shirt and boxers the player wears underneath other clothes, so if you have other clothes on it won't appear.

To choose what to wear, check the "Select Outfit" section below.

To properly dance at the festival, just do what you normally do (ask an NPC that you have 4+ hearts with to dance with you and talk to Lewis) and everything should work just fine.


Select Outfit:

To select which outfit you want to wear (a suit or a dress) you can edit the config.json for the mod (you must run the game once with the mod installed for it to appear) or you can use Generic Mod Config Menu to edit the config on the games main menu (click the cog in the lower left corner).  The option will be listed under " Kelly's Flower Dance Attire". From ther

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Huge community trust with 5,480 endorsements and nearly 180k downloads.
  • Tiny mod that does exactly what it says—no bloat, just festival immersion.
  • Last updated November 2024, so it's likely compatible with recent game versions.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects the Flower Dance, so if you want festival overhauls, this won't scratch that itch.
  • No explicit dependencies listed, but you'll probably need a mod loader like SMAPI to run it.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Stardew Valley players who love the Flower Dance but hate showing up in your everyday clothes while everyone else is dressed up. Also for roleplayers who want to feel like part of the festival instead of a spectator. Skip if you're looking for major gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have SMAPI installed—most Stardew mods require it, and this one likely does too.
  • If you're using a mod manager like Vortex, just drop the mod in and enable it; otherwise, extract to your Mods folder.
  • Test it at the next Flower Dance (Spring 24) to see the change—if it doesn't work, check that SMAPI is loading the mod.
