More details about the Diluc skin hint that his new skin is similar to his KFC outfit. Previously, Genshin Impact had a collaboration with KFC wherein Diluc and Noelle were the poster characters. And in that collaboration, Diluc is wearing a white shirt with an elegant vest over it.

Diluc and Fischl skins will possibly be available in two ways
Travelers speculate that these skins are obtainable similar to the Lantern Rite festival. To get Diluc’s skin, Travelers need to spend a certain amount of Genesis Crystals. However, Fischl’s skin may come as a free reward during the event in version 2.8.
But before Travelers can buy these skins, they should already have Diluc and Fischl. To get these characters, Travelers will have to rely on the RNG God since the are only available through the Wish system.

The first two are for Barbara and Jean, both introduced in the Golden Apple Archipelago event. Both costumes are Premium since Travelers needed a certain amount of Genesis Crystals to purchase.
As for the next set of special skins, they are for Ningguang and Keqing. However, only Keqing’s skin is considered Premium. For Ningguang’s skin, this was one of the event rewards back in the latest Lantern Rite celebration.
