Marvel Comics has revealed costume designs for the upcoming X-Men Hellfire Gala Vigil by artists Luciano Vecchio and Federica Mancin. Announced in April, the one-shot is written and drawn by a treasure trove of creators. The one-shot arrives in comic shops on July 2nd.
“This is a Vigil, not a Gala, so these looks are striking, but more solemn, less flashy yet still fun, that reflect each character’s history in a Post-Krakoan way,” explained Vecchio. “Unlike previous years where I focused on individual designs one at a time, here I worked in bunches at once to create a cohesive look while keeping singularities.”
“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

The butterfly is front and center, no traces of her CB costume. Luciano never disappoints
Wow, these designs look great!
Are all of these characters without a book right now? If that's the case, it's nice to see that they will get featured in the Hellfire Gala Vigil.
Hopefully the dress code becomes less strict and allows all attendees to have eyes, a nose and a mouth.
That is a vast improvement over the other outfit she had imo.
I would have liked a little purple, but looks like everyone is in black and white lol.
I also heard Betsy is involved in a "What If" story coming up that has to do with Phoenix?
@X-Man
What If…Kitty Pryde Stole the Phoenix Force? (An X-Men and America Chavez Story)
Kitty Pryde, Betsy Braddock, and America Chavez race against time itself to save Jean Grey and the X-Men in this epic Multiversal adventure reimagining Marvel origin stories.
@X-Man, I actually love these colors on her. They remind me of the uniform that Kris Anka gave her years ago, which she wore in Humphries' X-Force and Woods' All-Women X-Men runs.
@HOXOR, that What If actually has me intrigued!
