"Toxic" Cosmetics

Options

Hello,
are some Cosmetics considered "Toxic"?
Some stand out like a sore thumb, but are there some that have a bit of a bullseye on them as the clothing of a trouble maker?
If you were trying to remain "one of the herd", which items of clothing do you avoid?

I'm starting to realise that my Leopard print Ace and Rowdy Boy David, may not have been the best choice (although they are smart!)

Thanks!

    There’s no such thing as “toxic” clothes but there is a such thing as bad fashion statements

    Yyyup, for months I was a notoriously bad at the whole looping thing and the first time I actually knew one and used it? Yup, Killer called me toxic afterwards.

    It's an overused term these days so it's going to be meaningless soon enough.

    (i was still proud of myself for finally getting it, I was a happy Plippy afterwards)

    There are toxic people who swarm to specific outfits, but the outfits themselves are not toxic, that's just silly and nobody says that.

    There are no toxic cosmetics, but some of them make you stand out more so a killer might target you because you are easier to see. I had a meg in white tracksuit bottoms call me a tunneler because I didn't see the Jake wearing a dark green jacket hiding in the grass.

    Honestly, you shouldn't be worried about toxic clothes. It all comes down to the person wearing them.

    For example, I have seen most toxic Fengs wearing the red new year's shirt or the facemask set. This being said, not every single Feng wearing these clothes are bad.

    I have seen plenty of toxic P3 Claudettes, but I have also seen plenty of helpful ones too. 

    The only real cosmetic with a genuine toxic reputation is the Death Garden mask. Aside from AngryPug and his fans ruining it, you have to remember that two of the three Runner roles in DG are essentially just "bully the Hunter". So those folks are usually malicious, aside from them it's all relative.

    If someone wants to wear a target on their back great, that's one less person I need to search for and most likely they are over altruistic allowing me to slow the game down with gens.

    I don't know why but a lot of Claudettes wear the green shirt and p2 pants. Why do they do this?

    I'm just gonna put it to you this way.

    You aren't targeted because your toxic but because you are easy to see.

    I can just imagine a killer saying "Your outfit is toxic" LOL

    I can imagine "Yes, Minister" is having a remake, doesn't make it true.

    Who said it was true?

    You certainly implied it was. Why mention it at all if it wasn't to make the point that Killers complain about outfits?

    Why not using Fengs Lazer Bear on her back? :P It's kinda round too.

    Only outfit that can be considered even remotely Toxic is Meg's Pug t-shirt. And even then, most of us are going to scoff at you for being a wannabe and kill you anyway.

    I honestly never heard the term "toxic" when it came to people being stupid and mean in a video game until this one.

    "toxic" to me will always come from DbD.

    And yes people throw that word around very loosely.

    Anything is toxic to some killers - don't worry about it.

    Played the game a lot and have legacy? Toxic.
    Wearing bright clothing? Toxic.
    Doing generators? Toxic.

    Just play how you want my guy.

    Playing as laurie = TOXIC
