Without actually categorizing it as one?
items selected as a body part- eyebrows, scars, tattoos, etc- persist across all outfits including nude and career.
This is very useful for specialty sims who use things like horns and animal ears. But, doing that requires using one of those slots for those items, meaning you can no longer use those items. If you assign something as "right arm tattoo" you can thus never equip any actual right arm tattoos, for example.
Is there information in an item that flags it this way? Or is it "built in" to those types of items exclusively? As in, can an item outside of those categories be told to persist across all outfits?
If there was a way to use an unlimited number of items I'm sure we'd have it by now (Sims 3 got it quite late in its lifespan, but that was via awesomemod or some such, one of those things made by modders who decided to ignore Sims 4 entirely, so we don't have their help this time around). So this is my alternative that I hope is in some way possible.

Hi! Sadly S4 only enables one item per slot and I haven't seen anything that changes this. have you tried using anything from the makeup section? face paint? gloves? tights or socks maybe? i'd check what you specifically need and comply with that. or if you're planning to release it then you can create two alternatives.

Andrew recently took a look if it's possible to add a new category. He was able to create a new category, but items there didn't show up in the game. So as for now it is not possible to add new category.

I realize this doesn't address the question exactly... but in lieu of being able to add body categories...
I wonder what would happen if those specialty mesh items were flagged as Skin Overlay "Occult"? With Get Famous those categories work for Non-Vampires as well.
I rarely use them... like "Occult - Eye sockets" for instance.
I'm wondering what will happen regarding textures on those meshes if they are in one of those categories...
Since they don't have their own specific areas on the texture file layout (like necklaces, earrings, etc. do.)
I'm going to try it with some neck bolts I've made and see what happens...
