About this Mod

Armor Cosmetics is a Fabric mod that allows you to wear armor over your real gear, granting you style while also keeping all the functionality of your best equipment.

Additionally, you may toggle the visibility of your individual armor pieces entirely (doesn't affect the elytra), and don't need Trinkets/Curios to use this mod.

This mod will work with most modded armors, though it's mostly a toss-up if the armor is using a custom model instead of the default armor model used in vanilla Minecraft.

Enjoy :p (yes i know that there are a bajillion other mods out there that do this exact same thing no idc)
