[January 2026] VRChat Outfit Trends & Ranking | Booth Trend Analysis

Here's my look back at the 10 most-liked outfits published on Booth in January 2026, data included. Two threads run through this month's lineup: a thorough black-and-white monotone, and multi-model support built on the premise of adding one scene-switching outfit to the avatar you already own.

At the top sits a chill loungewear set — a grey sweatshirt slipped off the shoulder over a black sports bra (12,098 likes). Let's start there and go through the lineup one piece at a time.

📊 About the data　Aggregated: 2026-07-13 / Target: outfits published on Booth between 2026-01-01 and 2026-01-31 with 300+ likes (302 outfits)

The 10 outfits that stood out

Ranked by like count at aggregation time (July 2026), here are the 10 picks with what makes each one special.

#1: Syzygy / ALICE

A grey sweatshirt slipped off the shoulder over a black sports bra, paired with grey sweatpants — a loungewear set aimed squarely between chilling at home and stepping out, finished with a choker and headphones. It topped January's outfits outright (12,098 likes as of the snapshot). A new release from ALICE — the creator behind the popular "EverAfter [21 Avatars Compatible]" outfit.

Support spans 21 avatars centered on Shinano, Airi, Manuka, and Lime, with a breast shape key specified per avatar. The set is full — bra, top, bottom, choker, headphones, and slippers — so it works as loungewear and as street wear. Setup requires Modular Avatar (MA): it builds in MA Mesh Cutter to hide the body parts the outfit covers, so dropping the prefab onto the avatar clears any clipping automatically. There's also an option to strip the script for non-MA environments, and the mesh sits at a lightweight ~48,825 polygons.

Updates have kept coming since launch — clipping fixes and added shape keys for Mao, Kumaly, and Shinra — and full-pack buyers can download future avatar additions as they ship. On top of the swaying hems and sleeves, the set even includes expression particles of hearts and stars, so this everyday loungewear doubles as something you can lean on for photos and expression play.

#2: Night_In / FOXYPLAY

An off-shoulder white shirt with black-lace lingerie peeking out underneath, paired with garters and lace-top stockings — loungewear for a quiet late-night vibe, girly with a touch of allure. It landed at #2 (10,531 likes as of the snapshot).

Support covers 18 avatars (Shinano, Milltina, Manuka, Airi, Selestia, and more), with the latest lilToon assumed (down to the RimShade effect). It ships with a Unity package, a material pack, PSD data, and several shape-key presets for breasts (Big/Small/Cow), waist (corset/slim), and thighs — broken down enough that recoloring it into a pastel variant in Photoshop is straightforward. The off-shoulder cut means some armpit clipping during intense motion, which the product page flags up front so you can decide with eyes open.

The highlight here is a dress-up gimmick: pulling on the outfit opens the front of the shirt and lets you toggle the garters and stockings. You can turn it off from the menu, so you can open it for photos and keep it closed day to day.

#3: Knit_Noise / Mirène Line

A black-to-grey striped knit worn distressed and slipped off the shoulder, paired with short pants, a plaid wrap skirt, and lace-up boots — a punk-meets-street look. Chains and cross necklaces, a cap, and headphones add a jirai-kei edge, and it landed at #3 (8,541 likes as of the snapshot). A new release from Mirène Line — the creator behind the popular "Cipher Cloak [16 Avatars Compatible]."

Support covers 18 avatars (Shinano, Milltina, Manuka, Lumina, Rurune, and more). It follows the current workflow built on Unity 2022.3.22f1, Modular Avatar, and lilToon, with the usual breast and waist shape keys. The note to turn the breast PhysBone off when using the Small shape key is the same body-by-body care you see in #2's Night_In.

The loosely draped knit and the chain-and-headset edge live together, hitting a precise zone of "I don't want to skew cute, but not too loud either." The torn knit, a thigh garter, and a single ripped stocking keep the information density high while staying entirely monotone.

#4: MODE SCRIPTUM COLLECTION COMPLETE PACK / MAISONDARC.

An all-black mode coordinate you can grab outfits and accessories all at once — a collection pack that bundles the entire "MODE SCRIPTUM" line, as the name says. It came in at #4 (8,535 likes as of the snapshot). A new release from MAISONDARC. — the creator behind the popular "C1 EXPANSION BIG SILHOUETTE MA1 & HOODIE SET."

The contents run to 11 items: women's BASIC LOOK 1–3, men's BASIC LOOK 1–2 HOMME, plus an essential accessory set, decorate headphone, leather beret, leather cap with scarf, rimless eyewear, and a leather bag. The build leans on crop tops and wide-leg pants, berets and caps, chains and crosses — a monotone, constructed silhouette. Support spans female bases like Shinano, Shinra, Manuka, and Lumina alongside male bases like Minase, Komano, Kanata, and Alué, so the same collection wears across both men and women.

The environment matches the early-2026 standard exactly — Modular Avatar 1.15.1, lilToon 2.3.2, Unity 2022.3.22f1 — so it rarely trips you up on install. Pricing runs from ¥5,400 for a per-avatar full-coordinate pack up to ¥7,800 for the ultimate pack covering every avatar. This is the "buy the coordinate as a box" type, a different design philosophy from picking up single outfits one at a time.

#5: NOIR _SUIT / UNRWLD

A sharp suit done all in black. Blazer × white shirt × necktie, with a pleated skirt for female bases and slacks for male bases — a unisex formal coordinate that landed at #5 (7,302 likes as of the snapshot). The title has kept adding avatars since launch and now reads "28 AVATAR."

Support covers female bases like Manuka, Shinano, Ramune, Airi, and Lumina, plus male bases including Hanka, Minase, Komano, Kanata, the +Head series, and Nakiya. Suits suit anyone to begin with, but baking that into the supported-model lineup too is the design strength here. It even supports Nakiya, the avatar that placed #4 in January's avatar report, showing how quickly it follows new releases.

For ecosystem it's Modular Avatar recommended × lilToon 2.2.1, with dress-up animation built on MA Shape Changer and MA Object Toggle. Textures come in several colors sorted into per-color folders — a white suit with a pink skirt for a brighter look, and even plaid slacks. It's the kind of piece to keep on hand for a polished look at streams or events.

#6: Venomous Vows / CYCR (Cyber Critter)

A white gothic wedding dress packaged together with a matching hairstyle. With spiderweb and heart motifs, frills and a veil, lace gloves, and a bouquet of white roses, it carries a "spider bride" presence — and it landed at #6 (7,013 likes as of the snapshot). A new release from CYCR (Cyber Critter) — the creator behind the popular "Midnight Fox 2.0" — and an entry in the "outfit with matching hair" series built to pair with the hairstyle.

Support covers 20 avatars (Shinano, Kikyo, Manuka, Selestia, Kumaly, and more). Underneath the white dress there's also a decadent black-lace lingerie build with black-lace thigh-highs, so you can swing the impression between pure white and deep black. Beyond white, colorways in black, red, and pink are offered too, and the bundled hairstyle adjusts via blend shapes. The prefabs are hefty — the outfit at 365,351 polygons and 43 PhysBones, the hair at 40,545 polygons and 21 PhysBones — with the physics for frills and veil sway fully dialed in.

Packaging splits into stages: outfit only ¥1,400 / outfit full set ¥2,600 / full set with hair ¥3,100 / hair only ¥700, so you can build the whole look including hair or just fit the outfit to hair you already have. The bundle includes texture PSDs, and use in monetized streams is explicitly permitted.

#7: Omenia Pestilence / CYCR (Cyber Critter)

A large witch hat × a fur shawl × a corset stack into a dark, elegant gothic dress, finished with a prop candelabra you can summon to hand — a witch presence that landed at #7 (6,486 likes as of the snapshot). It's the other half of CYCR (Cyber Critter)'s "outfit with matching hair" series, paired with #6's Venomous Vows.

Support covers 18 avatars (Shinano, Kikyo, Manuka, Selestia, Shinra, and more). Purchase options split into builds with and without hair, so you can take just the outfit if you want to use your own hair. The prefabs are generous — the outfit at 261,735 polygons with 43 PhysBones + 11 colliders, the hair at 33,247 polygons with 14 PhysBones + 7 colliders — so the dress hem, fur sway, and tangling hair each move independently.

The highlight is the color range: purple, green, blue, wine red, and black let you enjoy the same silhouette in several palettes. The bundle includes a Unity package, texture PSDs, and Blender files, so it doubles as a material pack for serious editing. With this creator's new releases at both #6 and #7, the "outfit with matching hair" format itself made its presence felt among January's top entries.

#8: Lazy Morning / ルミ

An ivory cable-knit cardigan layered over white short pants, a black-lace camisole, and white over-knee socks — a natural, cute at-home coordinate. It suits a relaxed-morning scene or a self-portrait shoot, and it landed at #8 (6,469 likes as of the snapshot).

Support covers 11 avatars (Manuka, Riru, Lime, Airi, Shinano, and more) and is Modular Avatar compatible. The supported-avatar count is on the compact side within the top 10, but it firmly covers the major bases, and the bundle includes FBX, prefab, and a material pack. The chest is built to be adjusted via shape keys, and the Milltina version got a chest-weight fix in an update right after launch.

A loose knit over a black cami balances sweet and sharp, and the white-leaning short pants and over-knee socks build a "soft morning" mood. There's also a look that swaps the same cardigan over a black slip dress, so a single knit can shift the vibe. With an approachable price on top, it's an easy pick as "your first add-on outfit."

#9: Masquerade Classic / EDEN Oasis

A classical × gothic-lolita long dress trimmed with deep-red roses and lace. On a masquerade theme, it stacks off-shoulder volume sleeves, a black corset, and chains with a red gem — a formal piece that landed at #9 (6,453 likes as of the snapshot). A new release from EDEN Oasis — the creator behind the popular "Velvet Curse Dress."

Support covers 20 avatars (Shinano, Milltina, Ichigo, Mao, Selestia, and more). The environment is lilToon 2.3.2 × Unity 2022.3.22f1, with Modular Avatar recommended when using blend shapes — a current-standard build. Packaging lets you buy a per-avatar version for as many as you need, or pick the full set covering 20 avatars.

The defining trait is detail volume: skirt, shoes, sleeves, necklace, stockings and more add up to 369,475 polygons total. The roses are built across distinct materials — BlackRose / MetalRose / PlasticRose — and UV1–6 let you separate shadow and highlight. Deep red is the base, but a blue colorway is provided too. Among gothic dresses, it skews cleanly to the "young-lady" side, well suited to shoots at dance worlds and photo spots.

#10: Veto / macro0622

A white halter knit with a thin black necktie, layered over a black lace-up high-cut bodysuit, black sheer tights, and oversized black knit arm warmers — a monotone cool × sexy coordinate. It comes with cat ears, a tail, a bell, and ribbons as a set, and it landed at #10 (6,166 likes as of the snapshot).

Support covers 11 avatars (Milltina, Mayo, Kumaly, Lumina, Airi, Shinano, and more), with the chest offered as two top shapes, Type A / Type B. The back is a lace-up corset cut, so the rear view is built out too. The shader is lilToon and setup assumes Modular Avatar.

The core of this pick is the MA gimmick — each part of the outfit has a gimmick preset. The product page even diagrams how to slot in the breast PhysBone colliders, friendly for anyone who wants to tune the sway themselves. At ¥1,000 single / ¥2,000 full set it's easy to reach for when you want to add one monotone cool look.

Trends across January 2026

Setting the ranking aside, here's what the full pool of 302 outfits published on Booth in January shows.

Metric	Value
Outfits in scope	302
Average likes	1,722.6
Median likes	972
Average price	¥1,249
Median price	¥1,225
Avg. supported avatars (top 10)	~18
Modular Avatar noted	179 / 302 (~59%)

Median price is ¥1,225 and median likes 972. ¥1,000s is the market's design center, with most outfits clustered in the price zone where adding one is easy. Every top-10 entry ports individually to 10+ avatars — outfits that put in the work to fit and set up per supported model occupied the upper ranks this month.

Supported models: Shinano, Manuka, and Milltina lead

The supported-model tally leads with Shinano (204), Manuka (164), Milltina (159), Chocolat (138), and Rurune (123). Building a single outfit to fit 10–20 avatars is now standard, so it's a state of "if you own one of these names, something will probably fit you." Shinano (Ponderogen) and Manuka (STUDIO JINGO) in particular get chosen as support targets most often, and the numbers confirm they sit at the center of the outfit ecosystem.

One piece that stood out for breadth of support:

PLUMARIUM's "Re-Poppin'Cat" is a casual coordinate — a paw-print hoodie × short pants with cat ears. A remake of the earlier "Poppin' Cat," its draw is breadth: 22 avatars including major bases like Shinano, Manuka, and Milltina plus mamefriends shared bases. It ships with eight colorways, and full-set buyers receive future avatar ports at the same price.

Outfit types: knit, boots, and jackets up top, with a winter feel

Outfit types lead with knit (51) and boots (51) tied, then jackets (43), short pants (41), and pants (41) — winter-leaning items up top. The keyword tally also has "winter clothes" at 32, so January's temperature and VRChat fashion move together in the release mix.

At the same time, dresses hold a solid 31, so practical wardrobe items (knit, jacket, pants) sit in parallel with scene-specific pieces (dresses, witch outfits) — a hallmark of the outfit category. One knit worked into a school coordinate also appeared:

BOUTIQUE SERINA's "Sora Sailor : Blue" is a sailor-style school outfit pairing a blue knit with a pleated skirt. The chunky texture of the knit sweater overlaps with a clean sailor palette, making it easy to use for a "schoolgirl avatar × winter" scene. It supports 20 avatars centered on Mayo, Shinano, Milltina, Lumina, and Mao, split into parts — top (knit), skirt, choker, leg warmers — so you can toggle combinations. As the ": Blue" in the name implies, it's a single blue colorway built for one-click Modular Avatar setup, and the slightly-off blue palette on a knit staple is the draw.

Taste: sexy and cool neck-and-neck, not a cute monopoly

The taste tally leads with sexy at 82. Cool (81), casual (75), street (69), girly (67), and dark (61) follow, and the top entries are bunched tightly together. Cute (38) sits a notch lower — "mature, dark, and revealing" directions drew support head-on. The top 10 lines up with it too: jirai-kei street (#3), all-black mode (#4), a unisex suit (#5), and monotone cool (#10).

One piece that stood out on the cool × street side:

Radiant-iseo's "Lost Doll" is a monotone "cool" coordinate — a white shirt × black corset × plaid skirt layered with a black hoodie, fishnets, and a beanie. With the hoodie off it shifts to a lighter impression, a two-faced build that supports 13 avatars including Manuka, Shinano, and Milltina. The hat even includes an adjustment shape key, so you can dial in how it sits.

Color: black and white monotone dominate

The color tally has black (210) and white (163) as the two leaders, with achromatic grey (43) in third — a thoroughly monotone lean. Pink (34), red (33), and blue (28) sit a step down. Outfits often bundle and tag multiple colors, so a single item commonly counts as both "black" and "white" — a monotone base with a touch of accent color was January's default.

Within that, a piece that puts a chromatic color front and center did appear:

LTU STORE's "め～め～めいど！" is a sheep × maid dreamy-kawaii coordinate — a fluffy sheep-ear hood with a pastel-pink maid outfit. The voluminous sleeves that sway with every movement and the lace drawers under the skirt are built out, and adding the hood layer turns it into a warm winter look as a 2-way design. Masks are set up so recoloring is easy, and the pastel presence stands out amid a monotone-heavy January.

Trim & extras: ribbons, chokers, and belts up top

The trim included with outfit sets leads with ribbon (39), choker (38), belt (38), hat (34), and chain (31). These aren't standalone accessory products — they're counted as trim included with the outfit, so read it as "what comes with the outfit when you buy it." Ribbons and chokers up top reflect both girly directions and street / jirai-kei directions adopting chokers, while belts and chains work as small items for dark and street looks.

One formal-leaning piece that puts a ribbon to work:

Rabbit Luvit's "Rosetta" is a formal dress — an off-shoulder white dress layered with a blue bow and lace. On a rose theme with a clean palette, it supports 12 avatars. Modular Avatar is preset and a material-swap menu is included, and at ¥750 it makes "an outfit for a special day" easy to prepare. You can see ribbons and bows headlining pieces in formal directions, not only cute ones.

Price: ¥1,000s at the center, with a free / low-price tail

¥1,000–1,999 is the largest band at 174 (about 58% of the total), followed by ¥500–999 at 67, ¥2,000–2,999 at 26, ¥3,000–4,999 at 5, and ¥5,000+ at just 1. Designing around ¥1,000s is the market's center, flanked by a "casual ¥500–1,000 zone" and a "substantial ¥2,000+ zone." Free releases (13) and ¥1–499 (16) add a low-price tail too, supporting from the price side the outfit category's signature quick turnover of trying things on and testing combinations.

A piece that stood out in the low-price tail:

ろくなな産地's "Quiet Silhouette" is a formal-leaning piece — a purple velvet dress with a black fur shawl. Made to mark 10,000 Booth follows, its trait is that a free version and a support version, identical in contents, are both offered. It starts from "pick it up easily" while letting fans choose the support version, supporting 11 avatars (Shinano, Milltina, Lumina, and more; Kumaly added later). You can see the low-price and free tail leaning on this kind of milestone giveaway and support-version structure.

A creator's-eye view of January's trends

Notes for outfit creators:

Wrap-up

January 2026's new outfits read as "the sweat loungewear set Syzygy on top, a wide taste range from loungewear to mode, suits, and gothic dresses, and multi-model outfits porting to 10+ avatars across the upper ranks." The top 10 lined up in scattered directions — loungewear (Syzygy / Night_In / Lazy Morning), a mode collection (MODE SCRIPTUM), a unisex suit (NOIR_SUIT), wedding and witch gothic dresses (Venomous Vows / Omenia Pestilence), and monotone cool (Veto).

Across the category, outfit types skewed to winter items like knit, boots, and jackets; taste was a sexy / cool dead heat; and color ran black and white up top with achromatic grey close behind. Price clustered ¥1,000s at about 58%, with a free / low-price tail remaining. And Modular Avatar is now noted on 179 of 302 releases (~59%) — by January, more than half of outfit releases are built on an MA-first assumption.

From the creator's side, individual multi-model support, staged packages bundling hair and coordinates, unisex and male-base expansion, and a taste dead heat anchored in monotone each lined up as ways to rank near the top. From large outfits that reach wide on support, to easy ¥750 / ¥1,000 pieces, to the free-plus-support-version giveaway approach — the accumulation of creators putting out work toward their own aims is exactly what showed up in the top 10's breadth. That's the shape of January 2026's new outfits.
