Olivia Munn in Apocalypse.
Rebecca Romijn in her Mystique makeup.

Ironically I’d go with the black suits. As lame as they may have been, it actually worked onscreen better.

Olivia Munn in Apocalypse. Rebecca Romijn in her Mystique makeup. Only Olivia Munn's Psylocke and Reynold's Deadpool are deserving of any costume praise. The rest are trash. If you had to twist my arm though, I'd pick the future costumes they had in DOFP. The original black leather outfits were some of the worst superhero costumes ever, the actors couldn't even jump in them.

The yellow/blue First Class suits were the best, though that's not saying much. None should really be an option. On a side note, I especially love it when the characters in these films scoff at the idea of costumes ("You actually go outside in these things?" "We don't really have to wear these, do we?" "That's a pretty dorky looking helmet", etc, etc.). Really sends a message that the filmmakers are proud to be making X-Men films

Most of them weren't up to much but I suppose the costumes from DOTP.
Deadpool and Cable have the best costumes overall.

One word. this. I like my superhero movies not to look cartoonish and colorful. Since the other topic got locked up I still would like summers8 to comment on the following: I know Day of X-men Retcon is supposed to be the last "good" X-Men movie, but for my money, it managed to be quite impressively dumb. Mostly where it concerns the issue of time travel and how to stop the whole "kill all Mutants" thing from getting started. In other words, the whole premise of the movie is deeply flawed. The way time-travel works in this movie... doesn't. It doesn't work. Like in the comics, the mind of one of the X-Men is sent back in time to possess the poor unsuspecting body of their past self. So far so good. And the mutant who is going to be sending the traveler back in time is, of course, one of the many time-manipulating mutants. Velocidad? Tempus? Majik? ...Wait, it's Kitty Pryde? Kitty, for real? Okay, then. Why does Kitty Pryde suddenly have the power to send people back in time? Well, isn’t in obvious? Kitty’s powers allow her to phase through walls, and what is time but... um...? Nope, I got nothing. This doesn't even work within the realms of her powers, because her powers send THE BODY (with the mind still attached, granted) through physical objects. Never has Kitty's powers just sent somebody's mind elsewhere. Why not just have Cyclops shoot a hole in the Time Wall, or something? It would make about as much sense. And course, Wolverine is the one going back because Fox hasn't figured out that people are tired of him instead of Xavier because the strain of the journey would tear Xavier’s mind apart (oh, bullshit!) but Wolverine’s got that healing factor so he’ll be fine. Last time I checked, his healing ability didn't repair his amnesia, but hey, what do I know? I've only apparently paid more attention to their powers than the filmmakers. Anyway, Logan is being sent back to 1973, because Mystique assassinated a scientist named Bolivar Trask, the invent or of the Sentinels. Mystique was then captured and her DNA was used to create even more powerful Sentinels... Wait, what? No. Put on the breaks. What?! That is not how Mystique’s powers work! She can’t turn herself into metal or ice or fire, she just changes her appearance. In the first movie, her fake Wolverine claws were easily shredded by the real deal! A MOVIE THE DIRECTOR OF THIS MESS MADE! If you need a mutant who could kickstart a killer robot program, you use... Uh, none of them? Because that's not how Mutants and robotics engineering works! Back to topic, Wolverine has to stop Mystique and Magneto from ruining everything for everyone, because Magneto is also going to kill Richard Nixon. Spotting where this plan is dumb yet? They want to avoid the bad future riddled with mutant-killing robots by saving the life of the guy who originally designed the mutant-killing robots. That's like using time travel to prevent the Holocaust by sending a Rabbi back to 1929 to kick Adolf Hitler in the balls. I hate to say it, but the best course of action for this situation was supplied by Rhody in "Endgame. So Logan travels back to 1973 to discover that he somehow hasn't enlisted and been stationed in Vietnam at the time and goes to change history. Things get REAL dumb again during the climax, though. Just as Nixon is unveiling the Sentinel Program (and is for some reason NOT sending them off to clean up in Vietnam), Magneto pops in and drops the RFK Baseball Stadium on the White House. After some more shenanigans involving re-programmed killbots and a narrowly avoided Presidential assassination, the bad future is somehow prevented. Uh... No. Just no. No. Brian Singer... you were born in 1965. You were alive to see what kind of person Former President Richard Nixon was in real time. People who were children at the time have reported being pissed off by Nixon's actions as the events of Watergate unfolded on the news, so I know kids were paying attention. What's your excuse? I mean... Really? Freaking. Really?! In the narrative of this film, Richard Nixon gave the Mutants a pardon? Okay, let's frame this. From Nixon's perspective, Magneto DROPPED A FREAKING STADIUM ON THE FREAKING WHITE HOUSE as a show of power before moving in for the kill on Nixon and his Cabinet, and was only stopped at the last minute by the same mutant who'd just tried to kill Trask earlier that day! Then the guy who dropped a stadium on The White House for the intent purposes of assassinating the President and his Cabinet was allowed to get away by yet another mutant, and this one has the power to take over people's brains to use as his meat puppets! And Nixon's just okay with this? Oh, yes! That oh so famously nice, open-minded, trusting President Nixon concludes that Mutants aren't a threat to national security and society based on this?! If anything, this should have just made the bad future WORSE! Come on my friend, dont let me down. Show me wrong.

So back to costumes. do we expect mcu xmen to look like this cartoonish toy commerical?
And this is what mcu fans call in style for superhero films. LMAO.

My friend, I actually would like you to comment with some substance instead of insulting people. I know you are a highly sophisticated intelligent person and you can proof this assessment of your favorite movie is wrong. I know we are not worthy of your thoughts but could you please make an exception for me, your only real non sock friend? Much appreciated.
