The dress-up feature is one of the two main features in the 3D character creation tool VRoid Studio, the other being the VRoid editing feature.
The dress-up feature is available within VRoid Studio and as a Unity editor extension (XWear Package).
It offers a wide range of functions for dressing up 3D characters, and it supports avatars and outfits created for VRChat, those created using VRoid’s editor, and VRM models.
