Gwen doesn’t have many skins, but her skin concepts are unique. So, let us look at these skins and rank them from worst to best.
Gwen, The Hallowed Seamstress, released in 2021, is one of the newer champions in League of Legends. Formally a doll, she was brought to life during the Ruination, and now she wields the very tool that was used to create her.
In-game, Gwen is a Fighter/Skirmisher who excels at 1v1 and teamfights thanks to her AOE ultimate and heavy Magic Damage. However, her most defining strength is her ability to cut down tanky champions with her Q-Snip Snip! that deals True Damage. Her primary role is as a top laner; she is also viable in the Jungle.
The Hallowed Seamstress has been quite the exciting champion ever since her release. She has been jumping in and out of the meta for a while. However, with some recent adjustments from Riot, Gwen has solidified her spot in the meta. She has an excellent solo-queue pick rate and a good professional play presence.
With her rising popularity, it’s likely that Riot will give her another skin soon. So, before her new skin arrives, let us look at her current skins and see if they are worth the RP.

It was pretty hard to choose between Cafe Cuties Gwen and Soul Fighter Gwen, but Soul Fighter Gwen won out in the end due to its model. The skin has the best model out of all of Gwen’s skins. It’s crisp, beautiful, and feels like it was plucked straight out of a fighting game.
Model work aside, the skin also has pretty solid effects, and chromas are pretty varied too. Additionally, ult needle color changes depending on the Chromas.
Overall, a great skin.
