I Get the same problem all the time! I know the problem isn't mods since I'm on Console but once patchy came into his human form and I didn't know who he was.
He was bald wearing an orange hoodie from Cool Kitchen Stuff with sweatpants from Get Famous(Which is one of my famous sims' outfits) I recreated what he looked like in CAS but it won't be exact. I don't know if it was meant to happen or if it is a glitch. This doesn't only happen to NPCs it also happens to some of my played sims, sometimes they even end up wearing outfits of their own famous relatives, boyfriends/girlfriends and etc. It was really disappointing to see patchy like that, I had downloaded Seasons a while before that but never got the chance to see Patchy off his tree.

This just happened to me for the first time today. Patchy showed up inside the house a few days ago for the first time (scared the crap outta me) - but today he showed up in one of my famous Sims outfits.
I think, in my case, it's the "Trailblazer" perk - one below the "Lifestyle Brand" perk for famous Sims.
It *is* funny - but some "occupations" (like Grim and the Scarecrow) should not be subject to the whims of current fashion!

I also had issues with patchy appearing (and yup- bald). He also had no name listed in the relationship panel, and when he passed from old age he was listed as "____ has died" (I knew it was patchy because of his appearance). This happened after I had deleted patchy from my sims lot (so that I could keep the lot after disabling seasons). I didn't expect Patchy to remain in relationship panel after having deleting him from the lot.

For obvious reasons, the Grim Reaper dressed up in an outfit that one of the Style Influencers gave the rest of the Sims at some point.
This is on version 1.63.133.1020 with all expansion packs installed except for Eco Lifestyle.
No CC's or mods. The last significant change I made on my PC was getting that all-important Windows 10 Update 2004.

suddenly w this interaction Bonehilda grows long red hair during the towel animation. after the Woohoo she'll return to her normal maid outfit. i have tryed other instances, bed and dumpster, those her outfit/skin doesn't change. seems to be a bug directly attributed to her "nude/towel" outfit.

@Applecorn80 , well Bonehilda is a maid, so it is no wonder that she prefers her woohoo location to be clean! 😉🤣
Thanks for the picture!
I checked the Bug Reports section of Answers HQ (we are currently in the General Discussion and Feedback section) and couldn't find this bug.
Do you use any Mods or CC? If you do did you test your game for this problem with your Mods folder temporarily removed from your game (onto your Desktop ) and delete your localthumbcache.package file? If you did and the problem still occurs, please file a Bug Report about this discovery here: The Sims 4 | Forum | Bug Reports | EA Answers HQ
Please update us on your situation! 😇

My understanding is that Bonehilda is just a normal redhead if you do something the game doesn't expect, like add her to your household. I guess they didn't expect shower woohoo, either. :D
