With iconic outfits like Yuna's robe or Vincent Valentine's tattered red cape, fashion has a very special place in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Final Fantasy꧟. The character design in the Final Fantasy games has always been a mainstay in the s🎐eries.
With characters whose outfits transcend their intended medium, there are some characters who surpass the🌠ir peers. Not by the ridiculous sizes of their impractical 🍨weapons but by the sheer power of the clothes on their backs and how good they look wearing them.
Updated on March 28, 2023 by Quinton O'COnnor: We've added five more characters to our list. You know what that means - five more chances to disagree with us! Regardless, we hope you enjoy the read!
15 🍷 🌞 Rinoa Heartilly
Final Fa🤪ntasy fashion is known for its ridiculous outfits, elaborate armor sets, giant weapons, and zippers. Lots and lots o𒁃f zippers. Rinoa is the exception - except for the zippers, she does have two of them.
Rinoa’s outfits do what most Final Fantasy characters’ outfits can’t, and that is simplicity. Fantasy outfits don’t need a million bells and whistles to show that they are fictional. They can be toned down and still be tasteful outfits. Especially when the setting requires them to be, like in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Final Fantasy 8.
14 🦋 Warrior Of Light
The Warrior of Light embodiesꩵ everything that retro Final Fantasy stands for. His unique armor is recognizable to any JRPG fan from a mile away. The contrasting blue and ye♚llow of the cuirass and the cape respectively, make the iconic armor regal, yet subtle.
The Warrior of Light's armor has seen many redesigns over the years to better match the game it’s being included in, but it is nailed every single time. Not only because character designers at Square Enix are very talented, but because the Warrior of Light's outfit design is timeless. Whether the horns are up or forward, the Warrior of Light is here to bring fashion and fantasy together.
13 Yuna
Yuna certainly didn't set off on her Pilgrimage to wow the world with her keen fashion sense. In fact, her gorgeous garb is easily the most traditional on the list. But the traditional elements are precisely the charm; the elegant sashes, the humble purple skirt, the back bow.
In Final Fantasy X, Yuna's flower-patterned hakama and obidome cord-clinchers all depict a woman proud of her heritage - and of her duty. It's a striking look, an accidental piece of timeless Final Fantasy glam. (And if you prefer Yuna's X-2 getup, hey, you do you.)
12 💦 👍 Genesis Rhapsodos
Love him, hate him, or hate him a lot, Genesis Rhapsodos is the starriest star in a🌞n FF7 prequel filled with pretty-boy stars. Crisis Core: Final Fantasy 7 is like a nonstop glam show of male models (and the occasional gal). But could it have been anything else, when its antagonist is modeled after Japanese rock icon Gackt himse💞lf?
There are lots of valid picks for stylish devils in the FF7 canon. Th🍰e red-coated menace wields his garb as well as any sword, however, and eclipses those Shinra-uniformed good boys 💝with ease.
11 🙈 Locke Cole
He's not a thief, he's a treasure hunter. That's why Locke's outfit is so loud. He's not trying to blend in, but quite the contrary - he is seeking adventure, and he wants everyone to know it.
Every outfit needs a statement piece and Locke's outfit is tied together by the Doc Martens-inspired white and blue boots. With a feathered bandana, the zebra-striped shirt, plus the surplus of necklaces and accessories, Locke is ready to start a hair metal band. He's making a statement, and it is working.
10 🌞 Kain Highwind 𓆏
This man's attire birthed one of Final Fantasy's most iconic looks. From the dragon's-head helmet to the precise angles on his form-fitting amaranthine-hued armor, Kain Highwind's design has withstood the test of time. It's made him eminently marketable, and his overall aesthetic has been reused several times throughout the series, to its greatest effect perhaps with Estinien Wyrmblood in Final Fantasy 14.
9 🅷 Thancred Waters
The Scions' silver-tongued heartthrob is not only sneaky, but he is also a man of refined taste. His story in the fashion world begins a bit rocky, with his outfits from A Realm Reborn and Stormblood being acceptable at best and hastily put together - but once he is revealed in Shadowbringers, it is all uphill from there.
Thancred exchanges his trusty daggers for a hefty-looking gunblade and a stunning white trench coat fitting of a gunbreaker, ready to protect whomever he needs to. The change not only ups Thancred's appearance, but also changes his story narrative from an untrustworthy fly on the wall to a slick action hero who is willing to sacrifice anything for those he needs to protect.
8 Vivi Ornitier 🔥
More so even than Kain, Vivi's our ultimate pick for 'the best fashion filled with old-school charm'. You'd probably refrain from going to the club dressed like a beloved Black Mage - though more power to you if you do - but there's no denying Vivi knocks the classic archetypal design out of the park. Where this kid goes, his big straw hat goes. Where his big straw hat goes, style goes.
7 Ultimecia
At times, developers create villains with an end goal of them looking menacing 𓆉and having an aura to them that is viciously enchanting yet dangerous. And what is more threatening than a model straight out the runway from P🌌aris fashion week? Ultime𝐆cia fills those shoes perfectly.
Ultimecia's dress is borderline ridiculous and bold, with the extremely low cut on the front - but the horns and fur collar bring it all together to make a truly stylish appearance. She is the queen of time and space for a reason.
6 Rav🅰us Nox Fleuret
Ravus' big-collared wide white frock slashed with so much silver is the sort of thing someone might think to wear if they're hoping the cameras will hog them at an awards ceremony, whether in jealous splendor or mildly disturbed irritation. Either way, it sends a message - we're not quite sure what that message is, but it manages to be a stylish one.
Weirdly, it's Ravus' lack of a left arm that completes the look. His Magitek prosthetic, chromatic silver with purple swords painted upon it, transforms an odd costume into something oddly satisfying.
