Dress To Impress is one of Roblox's biggest fashion games with over 3 million likes — and it's part of The Hunt: Roblox 20. The quest is simpler than most other event games but it trips people up because you need to be in the right map mode. You're not hunting bunnies, solving puzzles, or doing anything complicated. You play two full rounds in the Classic 2024 map and the badge plus the Nail Polish reward drop automatically. This guide covers exactly where to find the right mode, what counts as a completed round, what the free item is, and how to knock this out before the September 28 deadline.
⚡ Quick Answer
Enter Dress To Impress through The Hunt hub portal. Select the Classic 2024 map mode. Complete 2 full dress-up rounds — dress up, walk the runway, and receive your star score both times. The badge triggers automatically after round 2. Free item: Nail Polish prop. Claim it in your DTI inventory before September 28, 2026.
What Year Is Dress To Impress in The Hunt: Roblox 20?

How to Access the Dress To Impress Hunt Quest
You cannot open DTI from the regular Roblox home page and expect the Hunt quest to activate. It must be entered through The Hunt: Roblox 20 hub. Here's how:
- Join The Hunt: Roblox 20 hub. Search "The Hunt: Roblox 20" on Roblox and enter the official event hub built by Twin Atlas.
- Complete Years 0 through 17 first. DTI is Year 18 — the hub locks portals in chronological order. All previous years must be cleared before DTI unlocks.
- Enter the Dress To Impress Year 18 portal. The Hunt quest panel appears on the left of your screen when you load in. Check it confirms the 2-round objective before starting.
⚠️ Important: Entering Dress To Impress directly through its regular Roblox page will NOT trigger The Hunt quest. You must enter through the Year 18 hub portal every time.
Exact Quest Steps — Classic 2024 Mode
The DTI Hunt quest for Roblox 20 requires completing 2 full rounds in the Classic 2024 map mode. This is different from the regular Summer in Brazil or current DTI mode — you need to specifically select the Classic 2024 version. Here's the full sequence:
- Select Classic 2024 map mode. When you load into DTI from the hub, look for the mode selector and choose the Classic 2024 option. The dressing room will have the original layout — chairs, makeup stations, clothes racks, shoe area, and a VIP section.
- Receive your dress-up theme. Each round assigns a theme — examples include "A Single Color" or "Arcade." The theme changes per round. Read it and plan your outfit around it.
- Dress up within the time limit. You have roughly 3–5 minutes to pick hair, makeup, clothing, accessories, and colours. Go to the hair and makeup chairs first, pick your outfit base, then colour items last using single fill palettes when time is short.
- Walk the runway. After dressing, move to the runway stage and walk. Other players vote on your look using a 1–5 star system. Your placement determines how many Stars you earn this round.
- Collect your round score and wait for Round 2. After the runway voting ends you receive your Stars. Round 1 is done. Stay in the same session — do not leave or the round count may not carry over.
- Complete Round 2 the same way. New theme, new outfit, new runway walk. After your Round 2 runway score is awarded the quest triggers automatically — the badge registers and the Nail Polish reward appears in your DTI inventory.
Round 1 I placed 7th and got 9 Stars. Not exactly a fashion icon moment. Round 2 I went straight to hair and makeup first, picked a single-colour look for the "A Single Color" theme instead of trying to be creative, and placed 1st. The badge dropped the second the round 2 scores appeared on screen — no additional confirmation needed. Two rounds is genuinely all it takes. The placement doesn't matter for the badge.
💡 Pro Tip: Your placement in the round does not affect whether the badge triggers. 1st place and last place both count as a completed round. Focus on finishing both rounds rather than winning them — don't stress about your score, just complete the full runway sequence twice.

"Dress To Impress is a fashion-themed game where players compete to create the best outfit based on a theme, impress judges, and climb the ranks."
Tips to Complete Both Rounds Fast
- Go to hair and makeup first. These take the longest to select and adjust. Get them done immediately when the round starts, then move to clothes and accessories.
- Use single fill colour palettes when short on time. Applying a colour palette to your whole outfit in one click is significantly faster than individually colouring each piece. When the timer drops below a minute, go single fill.
- Pick a base outfit first, colour last. Choose all your clothing pieces before touching any colour settings. Recolouring a piece you later swap out wastes time.
- Don't leave between rounds. Stay in the same session after Round 1 finishes. Leaving and rejoining may not carry over your round count toward the badge.
- Placement doesn't matter. 7th place in Round 1 counts the same as 1st place for badge purposes. Finish both rounds and the badge triggers — you're not being graded on fashion sense.
- Check your DTI inventory after Round 2. The Nail Polish prop goes directly to your DTI inventory — not your Roblox avatar accessories. Open the DTI wardrobe to find it.

What year is Dress To Impress in The Hunt Roblox 20?
Dress To Impress is Year 18 in The Hunt: Roblox 20's chronological structure, representing the 2024 era of Roblox. You must complete Years 0 through 17 in the hub before the DTI portal unlocks. The event runs September 17–28, 2026.
Does your placement in the round affect the DTI Hunt badge?
No — placement does not matter. Coming 1st or last in either round counts equally toward the badge. The only requirement is completing the full sequence of both rounds: dress up, walk the runway, and receive your star score. Two rounds completed equals badge earned.
Why is my DTI Hunt badge not triggering after round 2?
Most likely you're not in Classic 2024 mode, or you entered DTI through the regular Roblox page instead of the Year 18 hub portal. Exit and re-enter through The Hunt hub. Make sure Classic 2024 mode is selected before the round starts — the modern Summer in Brazil mode does not count.
Final Thoughts
The DTI Hunt badge is one of the easier completions in The Hunt: Roblox 20 — two rounds, no puzzle, no specific placement required. The only thing that trips people up is not selecting Classic 2024 mode or entering through the regular DTI page instead of the hub portal. Get those two things right and you're done in under 15 minutes. Nail Polish prop goes to your DTI wardrobe, September 28 is the cutoff, and this one is genuinely not worth leaving until the last day.
