===Professional life===
 +
====Fashion line====
 +
Gracie works in the fashion industry. Her designs are so well known that her name is synonymous with fashion among the townsfolk and the rest of the world. It can be inferred that she hails from a large city, perhaps the [[city]] often mentioned in the back stories of the townsfolk. However, rather than be squashed by the city, Gracie has used the hustle and bustle to become famous. From her personality, one can infer that people wait on her hand and foot. This implies that she employs a large staff and may even own her own fashion company named after herself.
 +
 +
====Fashionista Badge====
 +
When Gracie visits towns, she has been known to notice particularly "saucy" looking villagers. After asking them a series of fashion questions, she presents them with the Fashionista Badge, a sign of how close their impression of fashion is to her own. Occasionally, Gracie will include a moldy shirt as a subtle hint. The implication is that the receiver would look better in a moldy shirt from the Gracie line rather than what they are currently wearing. Usually, this gift is given the first time a particular individual receives the badge, perhaps in order, in a somewhat disdainful way, to teach them their proper place in the world of fashion. When talking to other animals in the player's town, the [[snooty]] and sometimes the [[normal]] villagers may give the player a clue as to what Gracie looks for in a Fashionista Badge. Wearing the Gracie Shirt will give the player a better chance of getting a Fashionista Badge with a good comment. She will also compliment the player on the choice of clothes.
 +
 +
Gracie also gives an outfit for 300 [[Bell]]s if the player persistently bothers her. Items like the Nile Shirt can be given.
 +
 +
===Effect on the town===
 +
Whenever Gracie visits the town, the [[snooty]] villagers take note. Occasionally, Gracie will create an outfit for villagers who do her favors or pay her money. As a result, Gracie's designs have become coveted among female villagers. [[Peppy]] villagers sincerely hope that the reason they have not experienced much success in their performing careers is that they do not have fancy clothes, and they see Gracie's fashions as a way to correct the issue. The [[lazy]] villagers have been known to admit crushes on Gracie, as women of her beauty do not often visit the town. Gracie calls [[cranky]] villagers "Evil Clowns" in which they have a hatred toward Gracie.
 +
 +
In {{PG}}, where [[Copper]] is a police officer, Gracie's disregard for the law frustrates him. Held to his post, he cannot arrest her, although he entertains the thought. Copper will tell the player about a campaign called Bust Illegal Parkers a few days before Gracie comes to town. When Gracie comes to town, she will park her car in a random acre in direct violation of the campaign, much to Copper's displeasure.

In {{PG}}, Gracie will visit the player's town on a random week day. The player can wash Gracie's car by tapping the 'A' button. If the player is slow, nothing is rewarded, if they are moderately fast, a regular shirt is given, and if they complete the task quick enough, Gracie will reward them with an exclusive "Gracie brand" shirt.

In {{WW}}, Gracie can visit town on a random weekday, standing in front of her car outside [[town hall]]. When spoken to, she gives the player a four-question quiz about fashion. She then hands the player a Certificate letter containing a rating based on the player's answers as well as a clothing item. A low rating rewards a Moldy Shirt, a medium rating rewards a Subdued Print, and a high rating rewards a random [[Able Sisters]] clothing item.

After the player takes the quiz, speaking to Gracie four more times prompts her to ask for an offer from the player for a clothing item. Depending on the number of Bells offered, the player will receive either an Able Sisters clothing item or an exclusive Gracie clothing item.

In {{WW}}, Gracie will come on a random week day, standing on the front of her car in front of the [[Town Hall]]. She will make a quiz for the player, and then will reward them with clothing. After talking too much with her again, she will ask the player to make an offer (in Bells) on a style (a hat and clothing). However, she will not show the player the style until she accepts the offer. Unlike the previous game, Gracie has a feminine voice. Also, if the player [[Fishing|catches]] a [[trash|tire]], the [[player]] will say "Is this from Gracie's car?!", even if Gracie has never even been to the [[town]].

Gracie is a fashion designer giraffe in the Animal Crossing series who offers exclusive items to the player. In games prior to Animal Crossing: City Folk, she visits the player's town and will give the player exclusive clothing if a specific task is completed. In City Folk and New Leaf, she owns GracieGrace, an upscale clothing and furniture store. Gracie has appeared in every Animal Crossing series game with the exception of Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

In Japanese entries in the Animal Crossing series, Gracie is male, while in all other versions, she is female. However, her appearance is identical in all versions. Gracie shares this attribute with Blanca and Saharah.

Characteristics

Personality

Artwork of Gracie from Doubutsu no Mori.

Gracie is highly pampered and prefers to live the glamorous life, driving expensive cars, and going to great lengths to maintain her fashionable reputation. Even when visiting small towns, as she frequently does as a form of recreation, she makes sure to wear excessive makeup and keep her car clean. Speaking with the villagers, she maintains a haughty air, even going so far as to brag that she, and no one else, is the famous Gracie. She exhibits a blatant disregard for local parking laws. In Animal Crossing, every time Copper and Booker hold a Bust Illegal Parkers campaign, Gracie parks illegally and manages to get away with it.

Gracie laughs at the concept of pulling favors out of the goodness of her heart. If one desires her assistance, she requires payment in return, either in the form of money or services. However, only if favors done for her are to her liking will she repay others. Whenever her car becomes dirty, she demands a nearby villager to clean it up. Only if this task is done to her liking, she gives the villager a shirt from her fashion line. Yet, the designer has shown a soft spot for the backwater world. Despite her insults, she repeatedly has developed a respect for the fashion senses of the villagers. When she is in town, she stops by the Able Sisters, occasionally finding a design that interests her. She has stated that "hicks" never fail to impress her with their fashion creativity, or making her turn up her snout at.

Snooty villagers appear to love her designs, and Gracie's voice resembles that of a snooty villager's.

Professional life

Fashion line

Gracie works in the fashion industry. Her designs are so well known that her name is synonymous with fashion among the townsfolk and the rest of the world. It can be inferred that she hails from a large city, perhaps the city often mentioned in the back stories of the townsfolk. However, rather than be squashed by the city, Gracie has used the hustle and bustle to become famous. From her personality, one can infer that people wait on her hand and foot. This implies that she employs a large staff and may even own her own fashion company named after herself.

Fashionista Badge

When Gracie visits towns, she has been known to notice particularly "saucy" looking villagers. After asking them a series of fashion questions, she presents them with the Fashionista Badge, a sign of how close their impression of fashion is to her own. Occasionally, Gracie will include a moldy shirt as a subtle hint. The implication is that the receiver would look better in a moldy shirt from the Gracie line rather than what they are currently wearing. Usually, this gift is given the first time a particular individual receives the badge, perhaps in order, in a somewhat disdainful way, to teach them their proper place in the world of fashion. When talking to other animals in the player's town, the snooty and sometimes the normal villagers may give the player a clue as to what Gracie looks for in a Fashionista Badge. Wearing the Gracie Shirt will give the player a better chance of getting a Fashionista Badge with a good comment. She will also compliment the player on the choice of clothes.

Gracie also gives an outfit for 300 Bells if the player persistently bothers her. Items like the Nile Shirt can be given.

Effect on the town

Whenever Gracie visits the town, the snooty villagers take note. Occasionally, Gracie will create an outfit for villagers who do her favors or pay her money. As a result, Gracie's designs have become coveted among female villagers. Peppy villagers sincerely hope that the reason they have not experienced much success in their performing careers is that they do not have fancy clothes, and they see Gracie's fashions as a way to correct the issue. The lazy villagers have been known to admit crushes on Gracie, as women of her beauty do not often visit the town. Gracie calls cranky villagers "Evil Clowns" in which they have a hatred toward Gracie.

In Animal Crossing, where Copper is a police officer, Gracie's disregard for the law frustrates him. Held to his post, he cannot arrest her, although he entertains the thought. Copper will tell the player about a campaign called Bust Illegal Parkers a few days before Gracie comes to town. When Gracie comes to town, she will park her car in a random acre in direct violation of the campaign, much to Copper's displeasure.

Appearances

In Animal Crossing

Gracie in Animal Crossing.

In Animal Crossing, Gracie will visit the player's town on a random week day. The player can wash Gracie's car by tapping the 'A' button. If the player is slow, nothing is rewarded, if they are moderately fast, a regular shirt is given, and if they complete the task quick enough, Gracie will reward them with an exclusive "Gracie brand" shirt.

Despite being female in the international release of Animal Crossing, Gracie retains her male voice from the Japanese version, which sounds exactly the same as a lazy or jock villager.

In Wild World

In Animal Crossing: Wild World, Gracie can visit town on a random weekday, standing in front of her car outside town hall. When spoken to, she gives the player a four-question quiz about fashion. She then hands the player a Certificate letter containing a rating based on the player's answers as well as a clothing item. A low rating rewards a Moldy Shirt, a medium rating rewards a Subdued Print, and a high rating rewards a random Able Sisters clothing item.

After the player takes the quiz, speaking to Gracie four more times prompts her to ask for an offer from the player for a clothing item. Depending on the number of Bells offered, the player will receive either an Able Sisters clothing item or an exclusive Gracie clothing item.

The player references Gracie in the catch quote for the Old Tire, saying "I caught an old tire! Did this come from Gracie's car?!"

In City Folk

Gracie in Animal Crossing: City Folk.

Gracie has a store called GracieGrace, named after herself; the only apparent staff member is Labelle. GracieGrace carries not only clothing, but furniture too. The items stocked are expensive, but there are end-of-season sales where the player can buy items that are marked down.

Gracie will randomly appear at GracieGrace. When the player speaks to her, the player can get an appraisal of their ensemble. The items considered are the player's clothes, accessories, haircut, hair color, and shoes. If the player wears a helmet or wig, hair color and style are not considered.

Gracie will comment on the player's look, if any, and the shoes. She will mention the player's haircut if she does not like it.

If the player's ensemble is sufficiently coordinated, Gracie will give the player a 10% discount on their GracieGrace purchases. The discount is good only while in the store.

Gracie is also featured on two magazine covers in Shampoodle, these magazines are copies of Ms. Nintendique, a fashion and beauty magazine. These magazines can also be seen in Shampoodle in Animal Crossing: New Leaf.

In New Leaf

After the player has upgraded Timmy and Tommy's store to T.I.Y., Gracie will start appearing at the event plaza on random week days after the player has spent 70,000 Bells. When she appears, she will mention that she is looking for a town where she can open her shop, GracieGrace, but has yet to decide which town she deems worthy enough for her image. Thus, in order to decide, she asks the player to partake in her Fashion Check.

If the player manages to pass her Fashion Check four times, and if other various requirements are met, T.I.Y. will upgrade to the T&T Emporium, and Gracie will open her own personal store, GracieGrace, on the third floor.

Gracie's voice has been changed to sound more like a female, with the same voice of a snooty or big sister villager. This change is made in all versions of Animal Crossing: New Leaf, including the Japanese version (despite Gracie being male in the Japanese and Korean version).

According to the Gossip Stone (an item new to Animal Crossing: New Leaf - Welcome amiibo), "Gracie" is not actually her real name. In the GameCube game, she may occasionally deny that her real name is Gretchen Grunch.

In New Horizons

Gracie's Poster in New Horizons.

Although Gracie does not appear in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Gracie's Poster can be obtained from Nook Shopping after attempting to invite her to Photopia via her amiibo.

Other appearances

In Super Smash Bros. for Wii U

Gracie appears as a collectible trophy, and as a background character in the Smashville and the Town and City stages.

Description NTSC-U: Gracie is a celebrity fashion designer who is really pretty critical of others. She'll happily let you know if your current look is hip or hippy, if you ask her. Aside from style reviews, she also runs her own little boutique, which she feels is a sanctuary from all the awful style choices.
