Official Dressmaker Discord & How to Join
The official Dressmaker Discord invite (58,000 members, no expiry), how to join, the two server rules that catch new members out, and where to report bugs.
The official Dressmaker Discord is discord.gg/tBa93Rzgj5 — open it, sign in to Discord, press Accept Invite. It is the same invite the developers link from the itch.io page and from the Discord button on the game's own title screen, and it does not expire.
Invite checked 26 October 2026 — server “Dressmaker”, 58,431 members and 11,334 online. No expiry.
What you are actually joining
This is not a fan-run server. The developers are in it, announcements land there before they reach Steam, and the bug forum is where they ask you to report problems.
| Server name | Dressmaker |
| Members | 58,431 (checked 26 October 2026) |
| Online at any given time | 11,334 at the same check |
| Run by | the developers (Cozy Lives / Free Lives) |
| Best for | patch news, bug reports, sharing finished dresses |
If you only want one thing from the server, make it the bug forum. The developers read it, and it is where launch-week issues such as zoom controls, missing dress pieces and the orange cut-line outline actually get filed.
Two rules that catch new members out
No generative AI. The server rules state plainly that AI-generated content has no place on a server about a game that respects human craft, and that includes community translations. Post an AI-made dress or an AI-written guide and it will be removed.
Bug reports need the log file attached. A post that just says "it crashed" cannot be acted on. Attach the game log:
- Windows:
%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Cozy Lives\Dressmaker\Player.log - macOS:
~/Library/Logs/Cozy Lives/Dressmaker/Player.log
Both paths come from the developers' own bug-report guidance in the server.
If the invite stops working
Invites expire and get rotated. When the link above fails, check these in order:
- The game itself — the title screen has a Discord button that points at the current invite.
- The itch.io page —
elyaradine.itch.io/dressmakerlists the community link in the project description. - Steam announcements — patch posts often repeat the invite when it changes.
Do not join a "Dressmaker Discord" you found through a download site or an APK page. Those servers exist to push files, not to talk about sewing, and they are not run by the developers.
Discord or Reddit?
Both are official, and they do different jobs.
| Discord | r/Dressmaker | |
|---|---|---|
| Format | live chat, threaded help | posts you can search later |
| Best for | quick questions, patch pings, bug reports | browsing other people's dresses |
| Signal-to-noise | high volume | slower, easier to skim |
| Developers present | yes, daily | occasionally |
If you want to see what players are building, the subreddit is easier to browse. If you have a problem that needs an answer today, ask in Discord.
Frequently asked questions
Where is the official Dressmaker Discord?
At discord.gg/tBa93Rzgj5. It is linked from the itch.io page and from the in-game title screen.
Is the Discord free to join?
Yes. The server costs nothing and does not require owning the game, though most channels assume you have played at least the prototype.
Can I post my own dress designs?
Yes, that is most of what the server is for. Screenshots of finished commissions, work-in-progress layering experiments and deliberate joke dresses all show up daily. Just keep it human-made — see the AI rule above.
Where do I report a bug?
In the server's bug forum, with the Player.log file attached. Without the log the report usually cannot be reproduced.
Is there a mobile version or APK I can discuss there?
No. There is no official Android or iOS build, and asking for APK links in the server will not get you one. The full game is on Steam and the prototype is on itch.io.
