When using a custom skin imported from gallery in the Dressing Room (wide model),
the skin works correctly while online.
However, after closing the game and reopening it while offline,
the skin fails to load and reverts to a default skin (Steve/Alex).
In the Dressing Room, the custom skin shows an infinite loading icon.
This appears to be a regression, as this behavior previously worked correctly in older Bedrock versions.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Import a custom skin from gallery
2. Select Wide model
3. Close the game
4. Disable internet connection
5. Reopen Minecraft and enter a world
Expected result:
The custom skin remains active while offline
Actual result:
The skin resets to a default skin (Steve/Alex)
