Prior to the events of the game, Purah perfected her anti-aging rune, making her appear to be a young woman and she has fully developed her body proportions. There are a few things she retains from her previous appearance: orange eyeshadow, Lizalfos goggle mask, pair of sticks attached to her updo hair bun that resemble chopsticks, bandanna underneath her hair, and eyeglasses. A new version of her dress is different from what she wore as a young girl, consisting of a white sleeveless Sheikah dress vest with a collar and the same three pairs of yellow cords fastening the vest, although one of them is loose at the bottom. The outfit included a sleeveless dark orange bodysuit that covering her legs which resembles the pantyhose, a black skirt, high-heeled black boots with gold straps between her toes, a yellow imprinted Sheikah designs on her left leg and a golden diamond sideways-shaped embedded in the small red sash beneath the clothes.
