Alongside the big outfits that win on avatar coverage, free / ¥300 / ¥750 picks and tightly-focused summer or men's-only outfits all shared the same Top 10.

Top 10 Outfit Picks

Ranked by like count as of the aggregation date (June 2026), here's a look at the craft behind each one.

#1: Le Hana / CYCR (Cyber Critter)

A Japanese-Western fusion dress with a Taisho-roman air: a hakama and blouse layered with arrow-feather and floral patterns, a black lace-up top and a big swaying ribbon. Built around red and black, complete with a floral folding fan, it took the solo #1 spot for August 2025 outfits (12,342 likes at aggregation). It's a new release from CYCR (Cyber Critter) — the creator behind the popular outfit "Midnight Fox 2.0" — and it's the latest in the shop's signature "outfit with matching hair" line, designed to pair with the hairstyle.

The product splits into outfit-only (¥1,400) / full set (¥2,600) / full set with hair (¥3,100) packages, so you can match the whole look including the hair or just put the outfit on your existing hairstyle. It covers 15 avatars — Shinano, Kikyo, Manuka, Selestia and more — with per-avatar chest shape keys. The outfit body runs 424,445 polygons with 55 PhysBone components, a substantial build, so with all those sleeve and hakama decorations the swaying physics are tuned to match. The license even explicitly permits use in monetized streams.

#2: GrayWhim / MyMe.VR

An oversized gray cardigan paired with a white shirt, a black tie, a black pleated skirt, loose socks and black Mary Janes — a uniform-leaning casual set built around "laid-back cuteness." With a cat hairpin and a relaxed palette, it landed at #2 (12,004 likes at aggregation).

It covers 12 avatars — Rurune, Shinano, Manuka, Milfy and more, including Eku, the #1 avatar in the August avatar report. The sleeves, arm ribbons and tie all sway, the polygon count sits around 65,000 (fairly light), and there are 8 color variations. The clever part is how you change the bust size: instead of touching the avatar's body, you adjust the shape key on the shirt object, and the surrounding accessories follow automatically. Setup runs on lilToon plus Modular Avatar with MA pre-configured — just drag the outfit onto the avatar's Prefab. After release the creator kept adding avatars too: Milfy, Milltina, Nagi and the shop's original avatar "Uno."

#3: Chrome Decay / 3BON

Damaged cargo pants paired with a band tee and a bustier-style top, finished with chains and a bandana — a rock-meets-grunge cool set. Pulled together in monotone with an edgy silhouette, it landed at #3 (11,225 likes at aggregation). It's a new release from 3BON — the creator behind the popular outfit "Loose Punk."

This is the for-Female-avatar package, with a large 22-avatar lineup — Lumina, Shinra, Manuka, Shinano, Milltina and more, even Mame Friends and Marycia. A matching "Chrome Decay (for Men's avatars)" ships as a separate product, so the men's and women's versions are split out. The underwear comes in black and white, and the shader is lilToon. Body fitting is done through the avatar's own shape keys for this grunge look.

#4: Lovely pearl / ♥MM♥

A breezy off-shoulder dress offered in two colors — black (with a ribbon) and pink (with a bow and a shoulder bag) — a girly summer outfit. With white tights and hair accessories rounding out a clean look, this free release still broke into #4 (9,689 likes at aggregation).

It covers 6 avatars — Sio, Manuka, Shinano, Chocolat, Milltina and Milfy. It's built to a high-heel shape-key baseline, runs on lilToon, and uses a VCC plus Modular Avatar setup. The product page opens with "I'm releasing a cool, breezy off-shoulder for free, perfect for the hot summer," and you can see the go-to-market here: release an outfit free to match the season, and grow reach by getting it into people's hands first. For creators widening the door with low or free prices, it's a useful example of the play.

#5: Sick Honey Street / EDEN Oasis

A black knit dress layered with chains, a cross belt, ripped tights, a choker and a pair of small horns — a metal-punk-leaning gothic look. With sweetness and decadence side by side, it landed at #5 (9,383 likes at aggregation). It's a new release from EDEN Oasis — the creator behind the popular outfit "Velvet Curse Dress" — and it sits in the shop's gothic-dress lineage.

It covers 16 avatars. It started with 10 — Shinano, Milltina, Milfy, Manuka and more — and added 6 more about a week later (Sio, Shinra, Kipfel and others) to reach 16. There are 15 color variations spanning a dark theme and a light theme, with a bikini and top underwear included. The mesh is about 91,000 polygons, built to capture the texture of the knit and the rips. A single-avatar version is ¥1,500, with a full set available for broader coverage.

#6: Shikiyui / StudioYONO

A black-to-navy kimono paired with a haori, a stole, prayer beads, an obi and a folding fan — a Japanese outfit for male avatars. Pulled together in calm, refined tones, it landed at #6 (8,302 likes at aggregation). A men's-only Japanese outfit breaking into the Top 10 is one of this month's highlights.

The core of this pick is its "one outfit, all seasons" build. From the expression menu, toggle the juban off for a summer yukata, or turn the haori and stole on for a winter kimono — so you can shift its look to match the season. There's also a gimmick that summons a folding fan into the hand. It covers around 10 avatars centered on Minase, Komano, Kuuta, Kanata and the +Head shared base (Rei supports both old and new bodies), and to handle clipping when sitting cross-legged in a kimono, it even includes per-avatar body mask textures. It ships as a Unity Package plus PSD, with lilToon as the shader.

#7: LV.9 Dive_Vibe / LookVook

A lifeguard-inspired bikini swimsuit paired with a "GUARD" visor, a fur-trimmed jacket and a thigh pouch — a summer beach set. With a bright silhouette that makes the most of skin, it landed at #7 (8,154 likes at aggregation).

It's the 9th entry in LookVook's numbered "LV." series. It covers 15 avatars — Kumaly, Lumina, Shinano and more, including Ichigo, the #2 avatar in the August avatar report. Each avatar gets fine-grained chest, waist and belly shape keys, with corset and belly adjustments for Ichigo. Because it uses VRC Constraints, the latest VRCSDK is recommended, and it ships as a Unity Package plus PSD. The outfit-only price is ¥1,600, and the full package is ¥3,200.

#8: TripleCharm / milkyHack

A standalone-panty lingerie asset you choose from three designs, ranging from delicate lace to a simple sports type. Usable as subtle underwear that flatters bare skin — a foundation to layer under your outfits — its ¥300 ease of entry helped push it to #8 (7,832 likes at aggregation).

The angle here is a "broad, thin, and growing" way to ship. At ¥300 for a single design (¥600 for the full pack), it still covers 19 avatars (15 pre-configured Prefabs), and full-pack buyers get free additional downloads as more avatars are added. With two lace designs and one sports type, it's an underwear base that layers easily under any outfit — delivered cheaply and widely, then grown over time. The shader is lilToon, with Modular Avatar support.

#9: Otome Yukata / Tempasohmori

A girly original yukata adorned with plenty of lace, paired with a headdress and a bag — a Japanese look for summer festivals and fireworks. With a clean, floral-scattered palette, it landed at #9 (7,474 likes at aggregation). It's a new release from Tempasohmori — the creator behind the popular outfit "Honmei Knit."

The selling point is its 21 color variations, letting you pick your favorite obi-and-yukata combination. It covers 21 avatars centered on Shinano, Kikyo, Manuka and Selestia (Yugiri and Kipfel are covered via shared bodies). On top of that, full-set buyers get an "omatsuri set" that puts cotton candy and ramune in the hand — enough to compose a whole summer-festival shot. Since it's Japanese attire, chest sway is discouraged and the build prioritizes silhouette, but there's a "Bodyfit" shape key for avatars with larger waist-and-hip proportions. The mesh is split finely, so Avatar Optimizer is recommended. The single version is ¥2,000, and the bonus-included full set is ¥3,800.

#10: Angel Enforcement Hoodie / AQUA LAILA

A cropped hoodie pulled together in white and light blue around an angel motif. A layering piece meant to throw over a swimsuit or a sleeveless top, it landed at #10 (7,395 likes at aggregation). It's a new release from AQUA LAILA — the creator behind the popular outfit "Devil Devil Hoodie" — and it's built as a counterpart to that very Devil Devil Hoodie.

Cast as the angel version against the devil version, it's a paired hoodie. It covers 9 avatars — Manuka, Mafuyu, Airi, Shinano and more — pre-set up to each body. It's aimed at people who like to customize, meant to be adjusted with shape keys and scale to fit your chosen clothes, and the product page recommends layering it over a swimsuit or sleeveless top. Sold as a hoodie alone (¥750), it runs about 92,000 polygons on lilToon with a Modular Avatar setup — an accent piece for adding a dark / angel layer to your existing coordinate.

August 2025 Trends

Rather than the ranking, let's read the trends across all 404 outfits published on Booth in August.

Metric	Value
Items in scope	404
Average likes	1,758.5
Median likes	1,023
Average price	¥1,167
Median price	¥1,195
Top 10 average avatar compatibility	~15 avatars
Modular Avatar frequency	300 / 404 (~74%)

The median is 1,023 likes and the average is 1,758. Top 10 avatar coverage ranged widely from 6 to 22, averaging about 15. Compared with the surrounding months where big outfits with broad coverage locked up the top, August mixed in tightly-focused free, low-priced, summer and men's-only pieces. The median price was ¥1,195, with about 81% sitting between ¥500 and ¥1,999. Modular Avatar frequency reached ~74%, with MA-based setup settling further into the standard.

Supported models: Shinano, Manuka and Milltina lead

Shinano leads with 243, Manuka is second at 220 and Milltina third at 204 — the top three all clearing 200. Chocolat (164), Rurune (158), Airi (156), Chiffon (152), Milfy (144), Lime (128) and Shinra (122) follow. It reads as a lineup where, when a new outfit picks which bodies to support first, locking in Shinano, Manuka and Milltina is the way to reach buyers.

In the well-covered Milltina band, one near-future techwear piece stood out.

DoXtore's "VECTORIAL STRUCT" is a near-future techwear look layering a necktie, an oversized jacket and a belt over a bikini top. It covers 9 avatars including Milltina, Milfy and Rurune, shipping MA and non-MA Prefabs. With plenty of color variations to recombine parts, it lands a cyber yet effortless style. August also saw plenty of other cyber / near-future outfits — cyber nurses, leather performance pieces and the like.

Outfit type: shorts, dresses and swimsuits neck-and-neck, summer in the Top 10

The top outfit types are shorts (57), one-piece dresses (53), swimsuits (52), dresses (46), jackets (44) and bikinis (44). Swimsuits and bikinis together come to 96 — summer wear was the single biggest block by count. Worth noting: the Top 10 itself pulled in multiple summer pieces — the free off-shoulder at #4, the lifeguard swimsuit at #7 and the yukata at #9. It's a season-aware month, with summer riding straight into the ranking.

Among the summer pieces, one free, gothic-leaning take stood out beyond the Top 10.

Yuki's Toybox's "Gothic Swimwear" is a black goth-lolita-style bikini layered with abundant frills and lace. On top of a matching headdress, it includes a put-on / take-off sandal gimmick. A free swimsuit covering smaller avatars like Mamehinata, Kipfel and Elsion, it's a piece that gives summer photography a decadent flair.

For a wider view, I've gathered the summer items published on Booth across 2025 — swimsuits, yukata, summer casual, props, worlds and textures — in my VRChat Summer Asset Archive 2025, a handy seed bank when you're planning summer pieces across the months.

Taste: sexy out front, dark and gothic still thick

The top tastes are sexy (127), girly (103), casual (89), cool (79), street (76), cute (64), dark (64) and gothic (47). Sexy leads solo, more than 20 ahead of second place, in step with the summer swimsuits and bikinis. At the same time, dark (64) and gothic (47) kept a thick darker layer that holds up regardless of season.

One cool-and-dark piece that caught the eye:

Irukanezumi's "R.E.A.P ENFORCER" is tactical close-combat gear envisioning a grim reaper. Over a dark military silhouette of a hood and pouches, a contact gimmick lets you take a scythe into your hand. It covers Manuka, Selestia, Shinano and more, building a dark, military world in a single outfit.

Color: black and white dominate

The color distribution runs black (259), white (224), pink (45), light blue (34), blue (34), red (29) and gray (28). Black and white dominate, pulling roughly 5x ahead of pink in third — a monotone-heavy month. The Top 10 followed suit, with Le Hana, Chrome Decay, Sick Honey Street and Shikiyui all building on black.

In the white camp, one piece crossed Japanese style with dragons.

Koarare's Atelier's "Dragon Maid" is a gothic maid outfit fusing Japanese attire with dragon motifs. A white-and-black apron dress paired with horns, wings, a tail and fishnet tights makes for a decadent yet charming fantasy look. It covers many avatars including Airi, Milltina and Shinano, pulled together with the unusual Japanese-maid-meets-dragon math.

Accessories: ribbons lead, with men's pieces too

The top bundled accessories are ribbons (63), belts (41), hats (35), chokers (32), necklaces (26), chains (22) and bags (21). Ribbon inclusion is clearly out front, in step with the thick girly / cute layer. Belts and chains that follow work as small items for the dark / street side.

One piece that uses a ribbon while pivoting to male avatars:

L'heurE bleuE's "Be my Bunny!!" is a bunny-boy outfit made for male avatars. It combines a sheer lace shirt, a vest, boots and a body piercing, with freely changeable colors that balance allure and coolness. Covering 13 avatars like Minase, Komano, KALNE and the +Head shared base, it's an unusual take that pivots the usually female-leaning bunny outfit to male bodies.

Price: ¥1,000–1,999 leads, with a thick free / low-price base

The price distribution is free (30), ¥1–499 (18), ¥500–999 (95), ¥1,000–1,999 (234), ¥2,000–2,999 (19), ¥3,000–4,999 (8) and ¥5,000+ (0). The ¥1,000–1,999 band leads with 234, and the ¥500–1,999 range covers about 81%. At the same time, free plus sub-¥499 comes to 48 items (~12%), a thick base — and the Top 10 itself pulled in several easy picks: Lovely pearl (free) at #4, TripleCharm (¥300) at #8 and the Angel Enforcement Hoodie (¥750) at #10. Zero items at ¥5,000+ is also an August trait.

One free pick that stood out:

LuminousMakina's "SlashCo Uniform Kit" is a customization kit for the worker uniform (a CWU-27P flight suit) worn in the VRChat game "SlashCo." It bundles materials, textures, a tool belt and an ID card, with a nameplate you fill in with your own name and job. A free item covering 16 avatars like Shinano, Manuka and Kikyo, it slots straight into the game's world — just note that the base CWU-27P flight suit is required separately.

August trends from an outfit creator's view

From the Top 10 and the August totals, here are four points worth noting from an outfit creator's perspective. To make the month-over-month difference visible, I've put July and August side by side.

Metric	July 2025	August 2025
Items in scope	396	404
Median price	¥1,200	¥1,195
Median likes	871	1,023
Free releases	27	30
Top 10 avg avatar compatibility	~17	~15
Modular Avatar frequency	~69%	~74%

Notes for outfit creators:

Wrap-up

The new August 2025 outfits read as "a Taisho-roman kimono dress (Le Hana) at the solo top, summer pieces — a free off-shoulder, a lifeguard swimsuit, a yukata — landing naturally in the Top 10, and a thick base of free and low-priced casual picks." The Top 10 spanned a wide range of tastes, from the kimono dress to laid-back gray casual, rock grunge, a gothic knit, a men's kimono, a swimsuit, a yukata and an angel hoodie.

Across the whole category, shorts, dresses and swimsuits were neck-and-neck by count, sexy led the tastes solo, and black and white dominated the colors. Prices clustered about 81% between ¥500 and ¥1,999, with zero items at ¥5,000+, making for a distribution with a thick free / low-price base. Modular Avatar frequency climbed to ~74%.

From a creator's view, it was a month where several plays lined up as ways to reach the top: riding summer pieces up with the season, winning awareness through free / low-price or free-download structures, pushing into Japanese attire and men's bodies, and building staple lines with series and numbering. From big outfits that cover broadly down to free or ¥300 easy picks, each creator kept releasing in their own direction — and that accumulation is exactly what showed up in the Top 10's breadth in August 2025.
