Motifs
Motifs are pre-made design patches that can be used to create custom clothing items with custom designs.
They're usually unlocked by collecting Yellow Loot Bags and opening them, or by increasing a Character's Friendship level. At this time, they cannot be purchased. The most reliable way to collect Motifs is to feed Critters their favorite foods.
Motifs can be applied to clothing and wearable items when in the customization menu. They can be applied as layers, with more then one Motif able to be added as a layered image. The order of the layers can changed after placement by clikgin and dragging (holding the A button and dragging up and down on controller).
Customizing Motifs
Motifs that have a paintbrush symbol beside the image can have the color of that motif image changed when added to a clothing and wearable item.
