Zara Larsson’s Iconic Style Featured In The Sims 4 Midnight Sun CC Collection: A Review

(Euro)Summer is coming, and with it, the best styles for your Sims!. If you have been following the latest pop music trends, Zara Larssonโ€™s Midnight Sun is probably one of the most talked-about albums on social media right now. With its dreamy visuals, vibrant colors, Y2K-inspired fashion, and tropical aesthetic, the era feels almost made to inspire new custom content for The Sims 4.

Created by Crypticsim, Dogsill, and Joliebean, The Sims 4 Midnight Sun CC collection brings Zaraโ€™s summery aesthetic directly into Create-A-Sim. Inspired by the albumโ€™s vibrant visuals, the collaboration includes trendy clothing pieces, sparkling makeup details, and stylish hairstyles that perfectly match the carefree energy of the era. From glittery outfits and colorful beauty looks to soft beach-inspired hair, the collection captures the nostalgic pop aesthetic that has made Midnight Sun so recognizable online.

The Sims 4 Midnight Sun CC Collection

Whether you want to recreate Zara Larsson herself or simply give your Sims a bright summer makeover, this collection is packed with stunning pieces that feel straight out of a music video. All three parts of this collaboration are currently available in Early Access and will be released publicly on June 6th.

Let’s Take a Look at Joliebean’s Part

Created by Joliebean, the fashion side of this collaboration is all about recreating the playful, colorful, and slightly nostalgic aesthetic that defines Zara Larsson’s Midnight Sun era. Drawing inspiration from the singer’s recent promotional looks, music videos, and album visuals, the collection introduces eight new CAS items that can be mixed and matched to create the ultimate summer wardrobe.

The set includes a variety of tops, bottoms, and full-body outfits that embrace bright colors, sparkly details, and Y2K influences. From graphic baby tees and beach-ready crop tops to layered mini skirts, denim shorts, and delicate floral dresses. What makes these items particularly appealing is how easily they work together. Whether you’re recreating Zara’s iconic Midnight Sun outfits or simply looking to give your Sims a fresh summer makeover, Joliebean’s creations offer plenty of styling possibilities.

All T-shirts share the same graphic design concept, with nine unique prints inspired by songs from Midnight Sun. The artwork combines colorful Y2K-inspired visuals with references to the album’s themes and imagery, while recurring dolphin motifs pay homage to the aesthetic many fans associate with Zara Larsson’s rise to international fame during the Symphony era.

Let’s Take a Look at Dogsill’s Part

Dogsill contributes four new hairstyles that perfectly complement the collection’s vibrant summer aesthetic. All of them share a similar philosophy: long hair, relaxed textures, and slightly tousled finishes that capture that effortless, just ‘spent the day at the beach’ look.

The selection includes both wavy and straighter styles, offering enough variety while maintaining a cohesive visual identity. Their loose silhouettes pair especially well with the collection’s colorful outfits and makeup, helping create Sims that feel stylish without looking overly polished.

As an extra detail, the set also includes the iconic flower hair accessory seen throughout the collection’s promotional imagery.

Let’s Take a Look at Crypticsim’s Part

The final part of the collaboration comes from Crypticsim, who takes inspiration from one of the most recognizable elements of Zara Larsson’s current image: her makeup. Much of the singer’s recent visual identity has been shaped by makeup artist Sophia Sinot, whose work combines modern beauty trends with strong Y2K influences to create colorful, playful, and instantly recognizable looks.

This influence is evident throughout the CC collection’s makeup selection, which focuses on bright colors, glossy finishes, and glittery details. The set includes three blushes, two eyeshadows, an eyeliner, a lipstick, and a body glitter overlay to recreate the radiant and sun-kissed look often seen in her recent photoshoots and performances. Together, these pieces make it easy to capture the bold beauty aesthetic that has become closely associated with Zara’s current era.

My Thoughts on The Sims 4 Midnight Sun CC Collection

I think this collaboration arrives at the perfect time. As we head into summer, the simmer community is naturally looking for fresh seasonal content, and few aesthetics feel as relevant right now as the one surrounding Zara Larsson’s current era. Pop culture has always influenced how players create Sims, tell stories, and customize their worlds, so seeing creators bring contemporary fashion and beauty trends into the game feels like a natural evolution of the community’s creativity.

What impresses me most about this collection is how cohesive it feels. Every item, from the clothing and hairstyles to the makeup and accessories, follows a clear artistic direction. Crypticsim, Dogsill, and Joliebean spent time researching the visual identity behind this era rather than simply creating generic summer-themed content.

My favorite part is undoubtedly the makeup. Sophia Sinot’s work has become one of the defining elements of Zara Larsson’s current image, and seeing that influence translated into The Sims 4 is incredibly exciting. The body glitter, face gems, colorful blushes, and bold eye looks don’t just work for recreating Zara herself; they’re versatile enough to become staples in many players’ CAS libraries for all kinds of summer-inspired Sims.

The clothing is another highlight. The cropped baby tees, ultra-short shorts, layered mini skirts, and playful graphics perfectly capture the carefree spirit of the collection. I especially love how the T-shirt designs reference both songs from the album and some of Zara’s most recognizable visual motifs.

If I had to point out one thing I would have loved to see, it would be a few more accessories. A pair of sandals, an anklet, additional bracelets, or even a wearable version of the towel Zara has used during some of her Eurosummer performances could have been fun additions. That said, this is a very minor criticism in what is otherwise an incredibly complete collaboration.

Ultimately, I can see The Sims 4 Midnight Sun collection becoming a staple for many players, even beyond those who are fans of Zara Larsson. The pieces fit perfectly in worlds such as Sulani, Tartosa, and Ondarion, but their versatility means they can be used almost anywhere. The Sims 4 Midnight Sun CC Collection releases publicly on June 6, though players can already access it through the creators’ Patreon pages during the Early Access period.
