Am I the only person who actually likes both of Vincent's EC outfits? Not ironically, not "if you ignore this part," like genuinely I like both of them. They suit the absolutely bonkers fashion that we see throughout FF7, with a very specific J-rock vibe that I think resonates with Vincent really well.
Would Vincent dress like that of his own accord? That's just the thing—we have no idea, because we've literally never seen Vincent dressed in clothing that he wasn't put in by someone else.
His main canon outfit is literally his dad's clothes, presumably put on him by Lucrecia before she ran off into the mountains and left him for Hojo to find, and young Vincent is only ever shown in his suit, the uniform that he has to wear as a Turk.
We've never seen how Vincent dressed in his offtime pre-experiments, and we have no indication of what kind of "modern" fashion he'd wear if he chose to try to blend in with people again postcanon.
It makes me think about how Reeve wears a really sharp suit when he works for Shinra, and switches over to what basically amounts to wizard robes with the WRO.
Going by the OG and FF7R, there's no indication that Reeve would wear something like that, but when Nomura was asked about why Reeve dresses like that in Dirge, his response was "Those are just his clothes."
Maybe those are just Vincent's clothes.
