I took Lamia and a lot of the "action lines" bellow and at her "bra section" out to highlight just the outfit and the little part of the chest of Layla

as you can see, besides the "grey/black difference" and the fact that the string holding the top part of the outfit is being hidden by the arm and hair, it is the same outfit

I assume you are finding it hard to see it because of the action lines plus the arm of Lamia

I appreciate the edit, but it wasn't necessary, since the action lines and Lamia's presence didn't have anything to do with it (and still doesn't). That's why I referenced the scene where I thought Nina was being turned to stone, but second-guessed it. It turned out that my first impression had been right in that case, so I'm hesitant to second-guess myself in this instance.

It just looks different somehow.

It could just be an effect of them being elements of the psyche...
For those curious: my avatar is an artistic rendering of a spaceship I drew for a primitive (by today's standards) multiplayer online game called XPilot. (More about both on my website.)

Bzzz.

Huh? Tiff's "costume" covers everything except her head and hands!

Well, there's a flash of her belly but it seems pretty minor when compared to some of the things we've seen in other comics.

Besides, I'm not just going by the color shift. Layla's outfit looks 'different' (for lack of a better word). :-??
It looks pretty much identical to me. The gloves have the same creases at the elbow and are the same length, and the section of her main outfit that we can see also looks the same - down to the little bit of bared midriff that's just barely visible when she leaps at Lamia. If I had to guess, the reason Layla's outfit looks 'different' to you is because of the perspective and angles.

So let me ask you this. How likely would you rate the probability that you're wrong about the outfit changing? Basically, I'd like your estimate of the chances of you being wrong about it.

That could be it too, or part of it. But the main reason is the fact that we've seen at least two people do it before: Faith (note the similarity in the color shift on her left leg, as she projects her school uniform) and Tia told Nina how to do it too (3rd panel).

Possibly. But, like I said, it's mainly because it's something we've seen happen before, so I'm wondering if that's what we're seeing here too.

Both Layla's and Lamia's outfits appear grey in the bottom left panel, porbably a stylistic decision to place more emphasis on the bite.

As for the bottom right panel, that's Lamia!Layla and Brooke IRL as opposed to in Lamia!Layla's mind. Compare with Why Were You Snooping?

@mittfh: I know the final panel is taking place in the real world. I'm only referring to the panel where Layla pounces Lamia. I even specified that twice.
