Flairs are accessory-like cosmetic items that makes your heroes look more legendary. They are meant to add more customization ability for the heroes aside from costume accessories and also to add some "flair" hence the name. They can only be equipped through the Hero Customization Manager which can be accessed through the cosmetic button in the player's inventory. Along with costumes, accessories and tower skins, they make up Dungeon Defenders II's cosmetic system.
The flairs system is divided into four categories : Head (halos, crowns, masks, mustaches and eyepatches), Back (wings, tendrils and backpacks), Waist (auras, tails and floating objects) and Feet (auras and other effects)

How to acquire
Currently there are no flairs available that can be directly purchased with gems, gold, or defender medals. Instead, the ways they can only be acquired are through defender packs, reaching a certain milestone in specific gamemodes, solving map secrets or obtaining codes from giveaways.
Certain limited seasonal flairs can be also be bought through DLCs during seasonal times.
Flairs sets
While there are various different types of flair, certain flairs are made together to form a set giving a complete look. Two or four pieces of themed flairs usually makes a set. The sets will be provided as a set when obtained through defender packs, DLCs or a gamemode's milestone. (However, Mastery's sets are awarded separate pieces as its reward pool are tiered.)

Gamemodes Rewards
These flairs can only be acquired by reaching a certain point in various gamemodes (currently just Mastery and Onslaught). While the Mastery gamemode awards flairs piece by piece when a milestone is reached, the later stage of the Onslaught gamemode instead awards a set when a milestone is reached. Both gamemodes offers different flairs as they are meant to signify that the player has reached a certain point or completion of the gamemodes.
Secret Map Rewards
These flairs can only be obtained by solving the secret mechanic of certain maps. Usually all versions of a map would have its secret mechanic. However, Drakenfrost Keep is an exception as only its Adventures version has its secret mechanic currently due to its secret unleashing the Drakenlord boss lorewise in the other versions of the map.

Trivia and Notes
- Some flairs like Boozarro's Grin, Mutagenous Talons, Tony Strange & Blazing Hellgeist Mask and The Connery are references to real-life popular cultures such as Stephen King's It, the works of David Cronenburg, Marvel's Tony Stark/Doctor Strange & Ghost Rider and James Bond (with Sean Connery) respectively.
- Dragonfall Carnival consumable masks have been re-added as actual flairs as of Power of the Ancients Expansion (2.0). Though their consumable version will still be in players' inventory unchanged.
- When the Protean Shift expansion (3.0) went live, all Xbox One Players at that time gets to redeem a code for the Protean Shellmet as a thank you for installing DD2 on Xbox One. A short time later, [CG]Lawlta decided to also repurposed it as a Trendy Friday Fun Stream (Now Chromatic Weekend Wind Down) giveaway item so it can be accessible to PC and PS4 players too.
- While the Pizza Gliders seems to be primarily the giveaway item for Chromatic Weekend Wind Down streams, you will be given an option to pick either Pizza Gliders or Protean Shellmet if you happen to win a giveaway.
- The Pizza Gliders made it into DD2 because [CG]Lawlta loves pizza!
- The Caster's flairs was CG's way of supporting the TCG streamers who have been reliable for a year and have helped make DDII better.
