Think you’ve got the best outfit in Tyria? Prove it and you could win big for showing off your threads.
Making A (Virtual) Fashion Statement
Guild Wars 2 sports some of the most impressive, detailed and customizable clothing options of any game.

Players have responded with everything from lengthy speculation about upcoming armors to passionate responses regarding available clothes.
Thanks to impressive levels of clothing options and color customization, Guild Wars 2 stands out as one of the most fashion-focused games today; so we’re celebrating a year of fabulous in game fashion with a contest.
