You spend hours hunting down every single Nano Suit for Eve. It’s the core loop of the game, right? But then there’s Lily.
Lily Artemis II—the genius engineer from the 5th Airborne Squad—isn't just there to fix your gear and look worried when you dive into a pit of Naytibas. She’s got her own style. Finding Lily Stellar Blade outfits is a bit different than the scavenger hunt you’re used to with Eve, mostly because the game doesn't exactly hold your hand to find them.
Honestly, it's easy to finish the game and realize you only have her default look. That's a shame. Lily’s outfits are some of the most distinct in the game, leaning into that "tech-support-meets-post-apocalypse" aesthetic.
Where the Lily Stellar Blade Outfits Are Hiding
Let's be real: Adam and Lily usually get the short end of the stick when it comes to customization. Eve has dozens of suits. Lily has a handful. But the ones she does have are high-quality. You don't have to craft them at a Repair Console using Polymer Materials like Eve's suits, either. Once you find the box, she can wear it immediately.
The Rainy Day Attire
This is usually the first one people find, and it’s tucked away in The Wasteland. You’ve probably driven past the Solar Tower a dozen times. Head just north of that tower. You’re looking for a large cave with a pool of bright blue water.
Don't just look at the water; dive in.
Next to the central island in that pool, there’s a crate submerged. Pop it open, and you’ve got the Rainy Day outfit. It’s a bit more practical than her default rig, giving her a yellow-accented look that stands out against the dusty browns of the desert.
Off-Duty Attire
This one is much later in the game. You’ll need access to the Great Desert and, specifically, the Solar Tower there. This tower is a bit of a platforming puzzle. You have to repair it first by finding four repair drones scattered around.
Once the power is back on, those drones move into position. You have to use your double jump (which you should definitely have by now) to mantle onto the drones and reach the upper walkway. The crate is sitting right there above the diagnostics terminal. It’s a more relaxed, "I'm not currently being hunted by monsters" vibe.
The New Game Plus Variants
If you think you're done after one playthrough, you're missing the recolors. Shift Up followed the same logic for Lily as they did for Eve: New Game Plus (NG+) introduces "evolved" versions of the outfits you already found.
- Shower Day: This is the NG+ version of the Rainy Day attire.
- Day-Off: The NG+ version of the Off-Duty attire.
These aren't just lazy palette swaps. The textures often feel a bit more detailed, and they give you a reason to actually re-explore those specific locations. If you already picked up the original in your first run, the NG+ version will be in the exact same chest in the second run.
The Stargazer and Pre-order Bonuses
If you bought the Digital Deluxe Edition, you started the game with the Stargazer Coat for Lily. It’s arguably her best look—very sleek, white, and professional. You find this in the crate near the Tetrapod right after you reach Xion for the first time.
There's also the Artemis outfit, which is her default, but there have been mentions of DLC or crossover content (like the NieR: Automata collaboration) potentially adding more. As of the latest updates in 2026, the core list remains tight, focusing on quality over the sheer quantity Eve enjoys.

Why Lily’s Progress Matters for Eidos 9
You can’t talk about Lily without talking about Eidos 9. This is the "secret" area that most players miss if they rush the story. To get there, you need to max out Lily's affinity meter before you head to Spire 4.
You do this by:
- Picking up Data Bank entries (the glowing "shiny" things).
- Collecting Memory Sticks from corpses.
- Completing side quests in Xion.
If that meter hits 100%, Lily will redirect the Tetrapod to Eidos 9 instead of going straight to the Space Center. This is huge. Not only does Eidos 9 have some of Eve’s best suits (like the Motivation and Punk Top suits), but it's essential for seeing the "Making New Memories" ending.
Lily's affinity is basically the game's way of rewarding you for being a completionist. If you ignore the world, Lily stays at the ship. If you explore, she becomes a more central part of the story's finale.
The Technical Side of Changing Looks
Changing Lily's clothes is slightly different from Eve's. You don't do it from the same "Nano Suit" sub-menu at a camp. Instead:
- Open your Main Menu.
- Go to Equipment.
- Look for the Lily tab (usually right next to Adam).
- You can swap her outfits and even her hair accessories if you’ve found any.
It’s worth noting that her outfits don't provide any stat boosts. Much like Eve’s Nano Suits, these are 100% cosmetic. She won't hack faster or heal you better just because she's wearing a raincoat. But hey, style is the real endgame in Stellar Blade anyway.
Actionable Steps for Completionists
If you're looking to 100% Lily’s wardrobe, here is your path forward:
- Check your inventory: See if you have the Stargazer Coat. If not, and you want it, you’ll need the Deluxe DLC.
- Scour the Wasteland: Go to the pool north of the Solar Tower. If you haven't dived, you haven't found Rainy Day.
- Repair the Great Desert Tower: Don't just turn the terminal on and leave. Climb the drones. That’s where the Off-Duty suit is.
- Max the Affinity: Before you say "Go" to the final mission, make sure Lily’s icon in the top right of the screen is glowing. This ensures you get the Eidos 9 content.
- Start NG+: Once you finish the story, speedrun back to those two chest locations to grab the Shower Day and Day-Off variants.
Most players forget about Lily because Eve is the star. But Lily's outfits provide a nice visual break from the high-octane combat suits. They ground the characters in the world. Plus, finding that submerged chest in the Wasteland is a pretty cool "Aha!" moment when you finally spot it.
Go back to the Wasteland Solar Tower and look for the blue pool. If you haven't grabbed the Rainy Day suit yet, that's your starting point. Check the submerged area near the small island in the center of the pond.

Once you've secured that, move to the Great Desert. Remember, you can't get the Off-Duty outfit until the Solar Tower is fully powered, as the drones won't be in the correct positions for you to climb. Reach the top walkway above the terminal to find the crate.
Finally, track your progress toward 100% affinity by checking the bar in the top-right corner of the screen whenever you pick up a collectible. This ensures you unlock Eidos 9 and don't miss the exclusive items there.
