In Infinity Nikki, tackling Styling Challenges might seem a bit chaotic at first. However, understanding how the factions in Florawish operate will help you get off to a great start. This concept is introduced as you begin to explore the cause behind the strange comas affecting residents, but you’ll quickly find yourself navigating the challenges on your own. These Faction Styling Challenges serve as one of the primary ways to engage in “battle,” aside from competing against Esslings. If you’re in the mood for some creative dress-up competitions, then the Styling Challenges are exactly what you need.
Each Styling Challenge in Infinity Nikki presents a different scenario where Nikki must show off an outfit that fits a specified theme. Remember, the theme is crucial in these challenges. Certain quests, such as Kindled Inspiration missions, might require you to wear a specific item or one with a certain tag. Styling Challenges, on the other hand, are simpler and can lead to amusingly quirky outfits. While many players strive to win by using only the top-tier outfit pieces, this can result in high scores but mismatched outfits. Use your styling abilities to compete against the various Factions in Florawish and the Sovereign of Cool.
Golden Daisies Styling Challenges
Three Easy Styling Challenges to Begin With
The Golden Daisies represent the first faction you encounter in Florawish, making it the ideal starting point for novice stylists. This faction consists of three members, with Salai as the leader. You will face off against Farini and Jiller after completing the “Unexplained Coma Incidents” quest, and you won’t be able to challenge Salai until you do.

Ebony Scissors Styling Challenges
Four More Members and a Slightly Tougher Challenge
The Ebony Scissors are known for their deceptive practices, stealing sketches from fellow stylists after defeating them. Without any apparent law enforcement pursuing them, it’s up to Nikki and her sidekick Momo to stop their antics. This faction has four members, led by Ricardo:

Kadru |

Stylishly Cool (Cool) |
You will initially encounter Kadru during the “Unexplained Coma Incidents” quest. Ramone and Legrand aren’t too hard to find; Legrand provides a “perfect” score for your Rippling Serenity Fishing Outfit, while Ramone simply needs Elegant attire, which is readily available with the numerous free pulls available to new players. After taking down all three members, you can find Ricardo at night. His first challenge required minor upgrades to my clothing, but nothing too extreme. The next round will involve the Beyond the Basics faction.
Before you can face any members of the Beyond the Basics faction, you need to challenge Pepsa at the Breezy Meadow in the Cicia Art Academy Field Base.
Beyond the Basics Styling Challenges
Five Last Stylists to Unveil the Sovereign of Cool
The Beyond the Basics faction is the largest in Florawish and serves as your final hurdle before going up against the Sovereign of Cool. Since they act as gatekeepers to the area’s boss fight, they are also the most challenging to defeat. But don’t worry! With your styling skills and all the patterns you’ve gathered, you should have no trouble taking on all five members:

You must defeat the four other stylists before Silvo reveals himself as the leader. After you’ve taken him down, you’re finally ready to challenge the Sovereign of Cool. Remember, the Sovereign is a faction on her own, so there’s still more work to do before you can face the final boss. You’ll need to defeat several more followers before completing all styling challenges in Florawish.
Sovereign of Cool Styling Challenges
Conquer Three More Stylists to Face the Sovereign
After you’ve eliminated the last of the Beyond the Basics faction, you’ll automatically activate the world quest titled “Sovereign’s Challenge! Ultimate Showdown.” This quest will direct you to the Sovereign of Cool, but won’t specify her location. To locate her, you’ll need to consult Salai again, who can be found south of the Mayor’s house. Salai will inform you about the three brothers serving the Sovereign, and you must defeat them before taking on her:

Aderinna, the Sovereign of Cool |

Unstoppably Cool (Cool, Fresh, Playful) |
Defeating Aderinna’s Styling Challenge can take many forms, but you’ll need to give it your all in creating the right outfit. Many of the pieces you’ve gathered, like the Rippling Serenity Ability Outfit, will align with the theme, but you’ll need to enhance them to at least Level Four and ensure your Eurekas are appropriately upgraded. Once you conquer Aderinna, you’ll receive valuable rewards, including crafting materials for Wishful Aurosa.
Once you defeat the Sovereign of Cool in Florawish, you’ll be ready to dive into the Breezy Meadows Factions for even more Styling Challenges. Expect them to be more difficult than the challenges in Florawish, so be prepared to upgrade your outfits accordingly to succeed. Styling Challenges provide some of the most fulfilling gameplay in Infinity Nikki, directing players’ focus back to the franchise’s core: using the art of fashion to conquer your foes.
