Why can't Adventurers look stylish?

I was running through on one of my characters today, doing pirate's skyhold when I realized that Shil Yargo the halfling, is wearing some stuff that I think adventurers should be able to get their hands on, or at least not have the same kind of habits. She's got this nice modern looking black bra, and she doesn't shave her head before donning a pirate's hat! I think I'd rather like if us adventurers could sport something a little more presentable than a burlap sack wrap undergarment set, and if we weren't all OCD about shaving our heads before wearing pirate hats. I mean, you can't tell me that its anything to do with armor blah blah blah, my main runs around in a courtesan top with shiny pink spandex pants, and my fiance runs around in a wedding dress, and I will tell you one thing is for sure, no lady in her right mind would be wearing that brown abomination of a bra, that you can clearly see, under her wedding dress.

but seriously... on the fashion front, i think we'll definitely see more options in the future. it'd be good to give the designers an idea of what you'd like to see.
- Fashion tab
- Dread Pirate finery to match Pirate Horde/Tricorn Hat
- Fashion tab
- Formal Paladin "Isteval" Finery
- Fashion tab
- Traveling Monk/Friar "Stone" Finery
- Fashion tab
- Merchant finery
- Fashion tab
- Generic Traveler finery (Like DC Divine Avenger armor, but finery)
- Fashion tab
- Spasm GWF
- Fashion tab
- Dragonborn Armor
- FASHION TAB!!!
Beyond that, I'd like trousers for women. There were the pantaloons from the recent Waukeen event, but I only got two and on the same character. Plus the sheen on them doesn't work for a lot of ideas. I'd also like some transmute armors instead of just the weapons. Sadly, while there are a number of unique armors in the game, many of the are BOP. I had a friend who wanted the Lolth armor for GF and couldn't find it. Then a week later I picked up in from a boss drop in Rothe Valley, but it was BOP. meh.
Still you can stand out from the crowd with a little effort.
Weapons are the same, every sword my fighter picks up looks just the same. My orbs look alike. And even my ability to choose what kind of weapon my fight or Rogue uses is lacking. My fighter types use swords.. no Axes, no hammers, no flails.... no choice. Again this is lame and a major fail on the games part. How can you really "RP" a char if everyone looks just the same?
Ten year old games have crafting systems that let you modify weapons and clothes with little hassle. Like was mentioned up thread, give us a few blade choices, a few hilt choices, some boot choices, and for GOSH SAKES give us some better hat choices!! The "Eastwood" rogue hat is way funky, as is the wizard skullcap ya have to wear for much of your chars life. Helms that all look the same for every Cleric or fighter gets old as well. Why is my Dwarf fighter stuck with the full face covering helm (except for his nose, which sticks out!!) when the Cleric gets a cool looking helm? Why is it only for Clerics? Why can't I have the cool helm if I want?
Sorry, got off on a rant there... But this sameness of look has bugged me for a while now.
you can read the entire IRC chat here.
Oy! I wuz der! o_O
Fashion tab... Additional fashion slots... Additional fashion profile... SOMETHING to hold more fashion items is required or those items will be ignored.
In addition, I think it would benefit the game if those items already in place, cosmetic and combat related, could be gone over to eliminate the many clipping issues and other graphic problems. For example, the noses of dwarven GFs often clip trough helms, and the foreheads/eyebrows of half-orcs often clip as well.
While they are looking at adding new hairstyles, they should take a look at the clipping that many of the existing ones have on some of the races, not only with equipment but the heads of the characters themselves. This clipping makes many hairstyles unusable on some races, or at least look much poorer than they should.
Some attention to this would go a long way to adding some polish to this title.
It would be insane...they'd probably make more money in a week then they've made since launch.
I am a little surprised they haven't included Costume/Fashion Slots into game yet. They certainly sell them in Champs and STO. But of course the game isn't a year old yet, so. time will tell.

Three years and still no Captain Klaa hair...
Actually not really. People would not spend that much and why would people spend real money for items that are already in game.
Because only the NPCs are able to wear them, silly!
Yeah so they are already IN GAME. The clothing is already being used so they should allow us to buy it in game with in game currency NOT real money
You can be mostly stylish, but often run into people that look similar to you. I'm just upset, especially with zen clothes like the wedding dress where you can see that nasty wrap underneath. I mean look at this pretty dress, nice open back, but running around what will you see most of the time, nasty wrap staring at you.
On the other side, our character models appear to be designed by committee (or in the case of elves one base model with a lot of different color palettes. I'm also not unconvinced that they did not just cut and paste vulcans out of STO and smooth some edges here and there).
You would think after virtually single-handedly solving EVERYBODYs f-ing problems across the entire region around Neverwinter and in the city itself that someone would think to give me a nice pair of clothes. After the countless lives I saved for a pittance you think Lord Neverember could shell out for noble garb (an FR lore friendly 20gp for the clothes and 5gp for shoes and a hat in PnP game) at some point during all my thankless service to a sergeant of the guard (not a general or the Captain of the Guard). Sorry, I'm bitter about the hack of an RP job cryptic does on a daily basis.
