Chiori is an Inazuman fashion designer residing in Fontaine, set to be released during the Genshin Impact Fontaine cycle. According to voice lines, Chiori personally tailored the outfits of many beloved characters such as Kirara and Navia, and runs a burgeoning fashion label within Fontaine.
Among the 18 new characters scheduled for release during Fontaine’s cycle, Chiori has just made her first appearance in Version 4.3 as part of the prestigious Fontinalia Film Festival! Here's everything we know about Chiori and her involvement in the Fontaine storyline.
Who is Chiori in Genshin Impact?
Given Fontaine's status as a hub for art and culture, fashion design plays a significant role in its social fabric.
Chiori is a renowned fashion designer from Inazuma who runs a fashion label in Fontaine, called Chioriya Boutique, located in Court of Fontaine: Quartier Narbonnais.
She is also one of the regular customers of the Komaniya Express. After an encounter while delivering a package to her, Chiori personally tailored Kirara's current outfit, as she was dissatisfied with her previous appearance. This led to increased recognition of her store as more people inquired about the outfit.
Her attire, adorned with a floral design, seamlessly melds traditional Japanese style with a modern Western influence. She maintains a sophisticated updo with a kanzashi (Japanese hairpin).
Although she appears to be wearing a kimono, the short cutoff gives it the appearance of a frock. Additionally, she wears corsage gloves on both wrists and wears thigh-high lace-top socks, complemented by an intricate poppy-esque centrepiece on her back.
Character voice lines about Chiori
The current voice lines about Chiori from various characters shed light on her no-nonsense approach to fashion, and commend her strong work ethic. She can be quite intense at times as she maintains an exceptionally high standard for her work and considers it a success only when both she and her customers are satisfied.
You can find below the existing voice lines about Chiori from Kirara, Lyney, and Lynette.
- Kirara's voice line about Chiori: "She's really nice to me. I often ran into her in the past when she was out researching ways to make fabrics and develop color palettes. She was always worried that I'd leave claw marks all over her beautiful textiles, but come on, why would I do that to her? She's running a store in Fontaine now and sometimes asks me to deliver stuff to her. Hehe, she even helped me tailor the clothes I'm wearing now."
- Lynette's voice line about Chiori: "The costumes Lyney and I wear for performances were specially tailored by Chiori. Once, Lyney was using a small knife for a magic trick, and accidentally cut the cuff of his sleeve a bit. She scolded us nonstop... it was scary. Luckily, I can hide behind Lyney whenever we go to her shop."
- Lyney's voice line about Chiori: "Flattery won't get you anywhere with her. She'll only give those who can truly appreciate her art a second look. How does she see me, you ask? Come on now, that hurts! Not only am I a connoisseur of the arts, but honest about it too, as I am in all my dealings!"
