Why are Bitmojis so popular anyways?
Recent research conducted by Snapchat has concluded users find it easier to express themselves with Bitmojis because they’re visual; which is why it is fitting they can dress their Bitmojis however they please.
For Mix and Match to work, you’ll need the latest versions of the Bitmoji app and the Snapchat app.

Tap the fashion icon to open your avatar. At the bottom you’ll see new options within each clothing section that you can play around with and customise to make your look feel personal.
From the Snapchat app
Tap on your profile icon in the top-left corner. Under the ‘Bitmoji’ section, you can ‘Change Outfit’, which will subsequently open Avatar Design. Then like in the Bitmoji app, use the navigation bar at the bottom to “Mix and Match”.
As a bonus, users can even get even buy Bitmoji Merch, which brings your Bitmoji to life. Over the holidays, Snapchat will be offering 20% off of all Bitmoji Merch.
