Can we get female outfits that are a little sexier?

I didn't see any of your concerns, but maybe I just overlooked it? Either way, the 'sexier' I believe, on a whole has been agreed that people want more 'elegant' armor and 'well-designed' armor that fits regional tastes as well as the genders and races that wear them.

Here are few more armor ideas.

QFT. You had the belts, the fur top, the flowery decorations, and the cleavage.

Don't care for Nomura's designs myself.
I've always found them needlessly complicated with all the belts and zippers slapped on random places for virtually no functional reason whatsoever. I prefer his pre-10 art.
Yoshida has always been my favorite Final Fantasy artist.

You have to admit though.

Whatever Tetsuya Nomura puts in those cigarettes of his is some high-quality shit.

But seriously, most of his stuff past FFVII is just terrible, and he's hardly Mr. Final Fantasy. If anything, Akihiko Yoshida has taken up that mantel from Yoshitaka Amano quite nicely.

Nonsense. Rikku's Black Mage costume in FFX-2 is where it's at! ^_^

Also, armor on girls should look somewhat different than armor on guys. I mean... they have boobs, so they cant wear the same type of plate armor, or any armor, it has to be shaped differently to mold around or be looser in that area. I dont see that right now. I see a girl in a cuirass i think 'man that must hurt to wear'.

Lol and this is why women in midevil times did not go to battle! Not that they should be kept in the kitchen. But armor was either to expensive to custom make for them or it was not confortable to wear. And well endowed women. Well, They usually had a different agenda that going to battle for their country! lol

I think it was more cultural ideas about women(it takes training to be in an army!) and discipline in the ranks(an issue even in today's military),part of chivalry was about keeping women out of battle, after all.(not that it succeeded.)

The faces need work though...the girl looks like Kadaj...

I want more scale mail-styled armors, or even a hybrid of plate and scale mail. Like what's shown in my sig.

Feral Ren's Armor

Features include:

• Clawed Plate Gauntlets.
• Scale Mail For Midriff.
• Large Form-Fitting Armor Plate for Upper Torso, held in place by metal clasps.
• Majority of underlying construction is made of leather.

Female Armour!

With feminine wear, most mature MMOs I've seen pander to what they only think males want to see, no matter how impractical the end results may be. Why cover the chest when an enemy can easily stab your character through a thoroughly exposed torso, or arm... or leg ... or...? This has always been a point of contention with me. Personally, I think MMO developers need to reevaluate their evolving player base. Competition is high with evolving graphics and game mechanics, but as to understanding their demographics, most developers are stuck in a quigmire of equating more skin to be more appealing, which is not so as many of the posters here have already pointed out.

I adore Akihiko Yoshida's designs, because not only do his concepts combine style with class, they are, most importantly, practical. With him, armor is actually armor, and the outfits lose none of their sophistication in the process.

I won't post specific suggestions for armor design, because I trust Yoshida in this area. I only want to say that when designing any new armor, please keep in mind that you don't have to show a large amount of skin for the outfits to be appealing.

I, personally, like the way they have done heavy armours in this game so far and think many of them are sexy as is. But when you want to go sexier like you are saying, then maybe something cloth?: http://www.flickr.com/photos/larryfrmny/4731148549/ or http://claire.dodin.net/data/uploads/Site/model.jpg (yes, thats the same girl as in the armour above.)

Mage robes need to flow more.

Sex sells and the whole world is buying.

I'd like a few more stylish clothes, some clothing looks impractical, and seriously running around Thanalan wearing a full mage robe just makes me think, "Geez she must be sweating buckets."

But then there's the coatee, which is kind of going in the opposite direction from that.

The easiest way to look more 'casual' with your clothing is to go with undergarment then a pair of kecks or slops.
Shoes on the other hand... lack a great deal in variety.

Clothes created specifically for either gender would make the whole thing a bit more fun I think. And make it easier to tell if that lalafell conjurer with the hat on is male or female.

no need for slutty stuff on this game.. how many threads are there gonna be about this bs..
You got bikini's.. That was enough.

Considering FFXIV is like, the one MMORPG out right now that ISN'T catering to the idea that female characters need to wear outfits that objectify them, I'm gonna say nah, I don't think they should put that kinda stuff in.

Why are we responding to the necro-bump? >_>

This is a good example of something I'd like to see, concerning "gender-specific" equipment. I'm not sure I like the idea of "sexy" armor that shows skin like other people have mentioned, just because it doesn't make much sense. That female swordmaster, however, has both adequate protection and a beautiful flowing dress and hair ornaments. Feminine, but mostly still practical.

Or you damn 15-25 yr old males could stop playing Miqotes and get outside n go see REAL sexy women in clothing... 75% of all miqotes are male.. manqotes and manthras, its getting pretty damn old!

And this foolishness of male miqo'te = no lifer it's foolish. Let people use the character he want, it don't affect his sexuality :| and good job on necroposting

Some guys play female characters so as to avoid being judged for their flambouyant or 'girly' personalities. They only have to do that because of the people who discriminate against them. On the other hand some guys play miqo'te because they don't want to have a guys backside waving around on the screen for hours on end.

Back to topic:
Thief clothes I expect will look quite funky.

I am new to the game and I see so many ppl with bikini's. Where can I get these?

They're not obtainable anymore. They were a special item given during an event last month.
