Consistent Outfit Changes with Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511 (ComfyUI)

Welcome to this tutorial on consistent outfit changes using Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511 in ComfyUI.

Qwen-Image-Edit-2511 is an enhanced version of Qwen-Image-Edit-2509, offering improved character consistency, multi-person editing, strengthened geometric reasoning, and greater stability during edits.

Changing a character's outfit while preserving identity, pose, and lighting is one of the biggest challenges in AI image editing. This workflow uses multi-image conditioning, allowing you to define the character with one image and the outfit or style with another, ensuring reliable, high-quality results.

By following this guide, you’ll gain a stable and repeatable workflow for professional-quality outfit editing in ComfyUI, while also having the flexibility to experiment with other types of image edits.

Before you embark on your journey with Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511, it’s crucial to ensure that your system is adequately prepared. Here are the essential requirements you need to meet:

Requirement 1: Install ComfyUI

You must have ComfyUI installed on your system. You have two options for installation:

Requirement 2: Keep ComfyUI Updated

To ensure the best compatibility and performance, always use the latest stable or nightly version of ComfyUI. Regular updates provide access to new nodes, bug fixes, and performance improvements.

For Windows Portable Users:

1. Open the folder: ...\ComfyUI_windows_portable\update

2. Double-click update_comfyui.bat

For RunPod Users:

ts
1 cd /workspace/ComfyUI && git pull origin master && pip install -r requirements.txt && cd /workspace

💡 Regularly updating ComfyUI ensures access to the newest features, important bug fixes, and full compatibility with all nodes.

Requirement 3: Download Qwen Image Edit 2511 Model Files

You will need to download specific model files and place them in the correct directories within ComfyUI. Here’s a quick reference for the files you need:

Requirement 4: Verify Folder Structure

Ensure that your folder structure matches the following layout:

ts
1📂 ComfyUI  
2└── 📂 models  
3    ├── 📂 diffusion_models  
4    │   └── qwen_image_edit_2511_bf16.safetensors  
5    ├── 📂 vae  
6    │   └── qwen_image_vae.safetensors  
7    ├── 📂 text_encoders  
8    │   └── qwen_2.5_vl_7b_fp8_scaled.safetensors  
9    ├── 📂 loras  
10    │   └── Qwen-Image-Edit-2511-Lightning-4steps-V1.0-bf16.safetensors  

By ensuring that all requirements are met, you will set a solid foundation for the subsequent steps in this tutorial.

In this step, we will set up the full multi-image editing workflow required for consistent outfit changes using Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511. This workflow also includes the optional SeedVR2 upscaler, which enhances clothing textures, patterns, and overall image resolution. You can toggle the upscaler on or off as needed, and the required models are automatically downloaded on first run—no manual file management required.

When running this workflow on RunPod using our Next Diffusion - ComfyUI SageAttention, Flash Attention is enabled as well, which can significantly speed up the SeedVR2 upscaling stage while helping preserve fine outfit details for high-quality, professional results.

Step 1: Download the Workflow File

First, you need to download the prebuilt JSON workflow that is optimized for multi-image conditioning, identity preservation, and outfit replacement. This file is essential for the next steps.

Step 2: Load the Workflow in ComfyUI

Once you have downloaded the workflow file, open ComfyUI. You can easily load the workflow by dragging and dropping the JSON file directly onto the canvas. This action will automatically load the entire workflow, preparing it for use.

Step 3: Install Missing Custom Nodes (IMPORTANT)

After loading the workflow, you may notice that some nodes appear with a red outline. This indicates that there are missing custom nodes that need to be installed. To resolve this:

1. Open the ComfyUI Manager.

2. Click on Install Missing Custom Nodes.

3. Select all the missing nodes that are highlighted.

4. Click Install.

5. When prompted, reboot ComfyUI.

After restarting, reload the workflow to ensure all nodes are correctly displayed with no red outlines. You can now continue configuring the settings to consistently change outfits in your original images.

Now that your workflow is ready, let’s explore how to configure and run Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511 for consistent outfit changes. This section walks you through the essential node settings and workflow setup for optimal results.

Image Upscaler Group (Optional)

Within the toggler above the workflow, you can enable or disable the Upscaler group.

When enabled, focus on the green SeedVR2VideoUpscaler node within the group and adjust the following settings to ensure optimal upscaling results:

• 4K → Resolution: 2160, Max Resolution: 3840

• 6K → Resolution: 3456, Max Resolution: 6144

• 8K → Resolution: 4320, Max Resolution: 7680

• 12K → Resolution: 6480, Max Resolution: 11520

Now, with all the settings correctly configured, we can move on to showcase some clothing change examples using the new Qwen Image Edit 2511 model.

As you can see, the character consistency remains high while the outfit closely matches the reference image. This makes the workflow especially useful for e-commerce fashion listings, virtual try-ons, and AI influencer content where reliable, repeatable results really matter.

In conclusion, Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511 offers a robust and efficient solution for achieving consistent outfit changes in ComfyUI. By leveraging the power of multi-image conditioning, BF16 diffusion stability, Lightning 4-step acceleration, and SeedVR2 high-quality upscaling, you can produce professional-quality outfit edits with ease.

While the Qwen Image Edit 2511 excels in many areas, it’s essential to be aware of its limitations. Very fine logo details, small text, or complex brand typography may not transfer accurately. For best results, focus on style, shape, texture, and color consistency, avoiding reliance on the model to reproduce small readable text.

By keeping these considerations in mind, you can achieve the most consistent and realistic results in your outfit editing endeavors. Happy editing, and may your creative projects flourish with the help of Multi Qwen Image Edit 2511!
