Outfits
Outfits are an alternate appearance layer for combatants, tied to Season 4 «Shattered Light and Claw». This page summarizes exactly what's been announced about how outfits work, without guessing further.
An outfit replaces a combatant's default appearance on everyday screens (lobby, Ark City…), but does NOT show up in 3 places: Story, combat events, and Psychotherapy — the combatant reverts to their default appearance there even if an outfit is equipped.
3 Places Outfits Do NOT Apply
Even if equipped, an outfit will NOT show in the following 3 places — the combatant reverts to their default appearance:
In other words: outfits are an appearance layer for everyday screens, not a full replacement of a character's art across every game mode.
What Else Do Outfits Unlock Besides Appearance?
Besides changing appearance, news coverage of Season 4 reports that the outfit system also unlocks DEDICATED VOICE LINES and a short SIDE STORY tied to each specific outfit — separate from the game's main Story (which is one of the 3 places outfits don't apply, see above). In other words: an outfit both changes appearance on everyday screens and comes with its own extra content (voice lines + a short vignette) once equipped — it's not just a visual swap.
Characters With Outfits
News coverage names 7 characters with outfits — the list below clearly separates characters with a CONFIRMED outfit from those still rumored or unconfirmed by sources.
Confirmed
Season 4 — Still Rumored / Sources Disagree
The 3 characters below are mentioned in Season 4 news coverage but without solid confirmation — especially Hilde: two news sources contradict each other, one saying Hilde will have an outfit right at launch, the other saying it's unconfirmed. Arabella and Olga are Season 4 Phase 2-3 characters who haven't launched in-game yet, so there's nothing further to verify.

Separately from outfits, raising a combatant's Affinity through Ark City also unlocks an animated wallpaper and other rewards — this is a SEPARATE system from outfits, not sharing the same on/off mechanic.
Context: Season 4 & the Beach Café Festival
The new outfits launch alongside the Beach Café Festival summer event (9 weeks, its own story + side events) in Season 4. See the full Season 4 timeline on the Seasons page.
The outfit mechanic and Rei's gift date are compiled from the founder's notes cross-checked against game update notes (sources not named here). Specific outfit names/prices aren't confirmed by any source, so they're not listed — only the announced mechanic is. The dedicated voice-lines/side-story mechanic and the list of characters with outfits are cross-checked against additional Season 4 news coverage (sources not named here); characters with conflicting sources are marked as such rather than picking one side.
