Understandable, right? Everyone loves cute things! But for people (or our Sims) it takes a little extra effort to make the cut. We don’t come in pastel colors with fur, so it’s all about posing in the right way. That’s easy-peasy with The Sims 4, where you can just download a pose, select it, and have your Sim looking exactly the way you want in a matter of seconds. When you use poses, everything is in your control. What you see is what you get, and all you have to do is place your Sims where you want them! So you’ll definitely want to make sure your Sims have a good camera on hand with all these photo-worthy kawaii poses – more than you could ever need!
1. Kawaii Baby Pose Pack
Check Out This Pose Pack Nothing is more innocent or precious than a baby, which is what makes them so cute. And an adult taking on certain expressions can have the same effect. All of these poses from Lady Kendal Sims incorporate a youthful, wholesome vibe from head to toe. And I mean that quite literally. When you use these, your Sim will have an expression of wonder, their hands may be in a number of positions like on their face, and their feet are often turned slightly inward. It’s certainly reminiscent of a toddler’s body language. And another thing that helps with the innocent look is that the Sim’s eyes are wide open in all 8 of the poses. A lot of times, it may look like their eyes are closed when you try to take pictures… but there’s no risk of that here.
2. Doll Poses
Check Out This Pose Pack Telling someone they’re a doll would be a little strange nowadays. But it used to be a common term of endearment. Dolls, of course, are made to be endearing and sweet. So it’s a good attempt at flattery. As long as the name Annabelle never comes up you should be okay. This pose pack comes from Katverse and has five poses that’ll set your Sims up in a variety of positions. Three of them are different standing poses – and honestly, despite being doll-like, they’re also quite natural. Any cute Sim will look sweet and flawless, like a model. This pack also offers two (2) floor poses as well, and that’s a good way to switch things up since none of the photo options regularly available in the game ever get a Sim down on the ground.
3. Veranka’s Pose Set #1
Check Out This Pose Pack Knowing how to work the camera is a valuable skill whether you do it professionally or not. Candid photos are often only fun for the person snapping them. Everyone has seen themselves in a picture and cringed, because you were making a funny face or slouching. Sims have enough going on in their lives (like fires every time they put their clothes in the dryer, and a chance of death whenever they want to sleep on their Murphy bed). It’s a rough world. So they don’t need the shame of being unphotogenic too! And really, as players, we don’t need that kind of negativity either. Time is too precious to spend it taking unfortunate screenshots. Veranka created this pose set to add some Sim cuteness. Through these 10 options, you’ll find an array of poses where your Sim will be doing different gestures – like making a heart with their arms or fingers, throwing up the peace sign, blowing kisses, and plenty more. All of these ideas are go-to poses for anyone trying to look cute. So they’re believable yet picture-worthy moments. You’ll also have multiple ways to use these. Veranka included the typical way using Pose Player, but there are versions that will allow you to use them in CAS or in-game.
4. Kawaii Pose Pack
Check Out This Pose Pack Kawaii is such an adored concept that it has become part of mainstream culture around the world, despite originating from Japan and being a Japanese word. People in the USA, England, and South America alike all find joy in the kawaii lifestyle. Sims also aren’t held back by borders. You can take inspiration from anything and apply it to your game. And that should be easy with the massive amount of poses here. With nearly 30 to choose from, you may even find yourself making your Sims spend more time posing than living! These are quite realistic, too. And like the poses mentioned above, these involve all of your Sim’s body parts to make the poses all-encompassing – as cuteness must be!
5. Un1con35’s Cute Poses
Check Out This Pose Pack I like getting right up on a Sim’s face sometimes. Whether you spend hours sculpting it or not, their expressions can get so lifelike that it feels like you’re looking at a real person with hopes, dreams, and complicated emotions. We all know that’s not the case, though. They’re pixels. And it’s okay to manipulate them to make them look exactly as you want. Sounds rather sinister when I put it like that, huh? Well, it doesn’t have to be. Us pose lovers are just making sure they look their best! Un1con35’s Cute Poses set undoubtedly lives up to its name. This pack comes with 11 poses in total, and your Sim will have lovely expressions and hand gestures throughout. You should be able to easily get them to “look” right at the camera as well.
6. Kawaii Gallery Poses
Check Out This Pose Pack As fun as it is to use Pose Player to position your Sims throughout their home in Live Mode, that’s not the only thing poses are used for. Many players take advantage of custom ones to switch up how their Sims look on the Gallery. None of the default poses look particularly natural, plus there aren’t very many no matter how many times you roll the dice and cycle through the randomized options. So it’s obvious this set feels necessary to have, if you aren’t a big fan of the default ones. And besides, these custom ones are quite cool. They’ll give your Sims an extra bit of personality, and make them appear truer to themselves on the Gallery. All 6 of these poses from SakuraLeon have a demure yet fun vibe. They’re intended for a single female Sim, and she’ll really stand out!
7. Cuteness Pose Pack v3
Check Out This Pose Pack Here’s another pack full of happy & energetic poses for you to try out. These all have a lot going on, including some that will look like your Sim is moving. Not to you, of course. They’ll be like a statue in your game. But after you’ve taken a screenshot or snapped a picture, it’ll seem like you’ve captured a moment in time. I’ve mentioned already how some poses seem natural or realistic – and these are definitely near the top of the list for that sort of thing… figuratively speaking, of course. Making poses isn’t easy. And this Simmer did a fantastic job here. Not one part of any of them looks the slightest bit out of place.
8. 5 + 1 Cute Poses
Check Out This Pose Pack Elaborate, expansive pose packs are always great. Variety is really special to find in any fan community, since everyone’s efforts and hard work is free. That’s something really impressive about Simmers. However, sometimes short, sweet, and to the point is equally valuable. You might get overwhelmed with a large number of poses at once if you aren’t used to using them, or it may be more than you need. I know when I download poses, I often already have a scenario in mind. They really allow you to expand your gameplay and get creative in some amazing ways. This little pack has just 6 poses in total, but each one is a gem. Sims may smile a lot by default – but they’ll really seem genuinely happy with these. Like, the smiles seem so joyous, they actually meet your Sim’s eyes! And the peace sign shows up a few times here – a bonafide kawaii symbol if there ever was one.
9. Female Poses #1
Check Out This Pose Pack Girls rock the kawaii thing. By and large, they’re who it’s for, though it’s not a law that boys can’t partake. So you can even use these poses for male Sims if you want. It’s a free world. But they are made with females in mind, in a way a girl dedicated to a kawaii theme can nail it. These 4 single poses are all quite different too. Some will place your Sim in a seated position on the floor, while in another she’ll be standing, smiling, and tipping her head. As an added treat, there’s even a pose for two in here. That’s twice the cuteness! Oh, and there are lots of peace signs to go around. They really do work for giving a Sim’s hands something to do.
10. QT Poses
Check Out This Pose Pack You’ve heard of cutie pies, now get ready for… QT pies? Yeah, just the name of these poses is a sign of this Simmer’s talents. But you didn’t come for names, you came for poses – and poses you shall get. And these poses also put your Sim’s hands to work. Making a hand heart is at least something to do besides just sit there while your picture’s being taken… Not to mention, it’ll never go out of style. Kawaii will always be kawaii. This is a great pack all around, and your Sim will look beautiful here – whether you use one pose or all six.
