Should I use the glamour dresser?

[Hasrat]

When you open the dresser, don't click "edit plates". Instead, right click any individual piece in the dresser and there is an option to dye it. This will override any previous dye and will be the default dye when you next add the item to a plate. If the item is already in use in a plate, the color of that item in the plate will not be affected.

I believe you can also dye a piece of gear while editing your plates, which will only apply that dye to that item from the specific plates used.

Which means you could dye a piece of gear within the dresser with an expensive dye, which would allow that dyed piece to be used in any future plate, but also while using it in any plate, dye over it with any other dye without losing the original expensive look that is saved to the dresser.
