Wardrobe Overview

A Wardrobe is a named costume belonging to a specific character — storing a name, description, default flag, notes, and scene count. Wardrobes can have full-body costume reference portraits at a 2:3 aspect ratio. Every character gets a default wardrobe automatically; additional scene-specific wardrobes override it.

What Is a Wardrobe?

Each wardrobe record stores a name, a description of the costume, an isDefault flag, notes, and a scene count showing how many scenes use it. Wardrobes can also have one or more AI-generated or uploaded full-body costume reference portraits at a 2:3 aspect ratio, designed to show the character head-to-toe in that costume.

Default vs Scene-Specific

Every character has two types of wardrobes:

Default Wardrobe

Auto-created when the character is created, named “[Character Name]’s Default Wardrobe”, shown with a green Default badge. Used in every scene unless a scene-specific wardrobe overrides it.

Scene-Specific Wardrobe

Created manually in the Wardrobe tab, then assigned to specific scenes via the Scenes tab. Overrides the default wardrobe for that scene only.

The Fallback Chain

When generating storyboard panels, the system walks this chain to find the best costume reference for each character:

1 Scene-specific wardrobe portrait — If a SceneWardrobe exists for this character in this scene, its portrait is used

2 Default wardrobe portrait — The character’s default wardrobe portrait is used as a fallback

3 Character portrait — If no wardrobe portrait exists at all, the character’s own portrait is the final fallback

How Wardrobe Connects to Everything

Wardrobes sit at the intersection of characters, scenes, and visual output:

1 Characters — Every wardrobe belongs to a specific character

2 Scenes — Scene-specific wardrobes are assigned via the Scenes tab

3 Production Designs — Wardrobe portraits are stored per design

4 Storyboards — Panels reference wardrobe portraits via the fallback chain

The Wardrobe Tab

The Wardrobe tab in your project dashboard is where you manage every character costume. Each row shows a portrait thumbnail (80×120, 2:3 ratio), the wardrobe name, a character name tag, a green “Default” badge (if applicable), scene count, description, and action buttons.
