Shh... Don't you know we are supposed to ignore any of the items that don't fit their "healers get nothing but dresses" narrative?

Like it about as much as like the winning melee outfits. Wouldn't be caught wearing any of them. They all lack cuteness to them.
Bonewicca and Skalla sets were saved by being dyable and being designed by an outsider (though the final version we did get wasn't to my tastes at all really, especially the fugly pants copy pasted on every male Skalla set when we could have gotten some cute shorts and thigh-high boots without chains or belts attached to them). Overwhelming majority of the other gear we get are long, white robes. And if they aren't white they're still robes that I have to glamour over.
Since these are again contest winners there is a chance we'll get something good out of it but it's safer to assume SE will find a way to give us something we've seen 100+ times before.
I'm hoping 5.0 models have a modern influence, tailored design to them. ....Just no more Alagan themed armors please ... or swimwear, we have enough swimwear already
This caster set is actually what I would love to have for my AST:

I know a lot of healers want less heels, skirts, dresses and robes, but I want more of all of those except robes. I would actually be somewhat still ok with robes if they could deviate from the current trend of flared gowns. Skirts are either too short or too long, and I think healers are long overdo for more mid-length skirts.
This was my favorite design in the contest by far, and I hope they add it sometime in the future. I'd even go into savage or PvP to get my mitts on it for my WHM.

That leaves SCH, which for a long time now I have expressed a somewhat more modern, military look for their attire and to get away from the robe-ish scholasticate designs. Something like these:

There's a couple in there I don't like much, but most are really neat, and most can be worn by male or female. The first in the top row is super cute, and I'm actually requesting SE put in-game asap! Luckily, there are some glamours currently in the game to help achieve the military look :)
