Haven't read the changelog for 0.7.2 so I don't know exactly what was changed, other than the ability to see the MC wearing the equipment.
Just had a talk with TechSupport in Hopes' Discord channel, and he said to players to use this as a temporary fix until the next update (regarding The Painter contract description bug).
Just drop the following file in the game folder.
