I'm not sure if there's been any major push for this, but let me put it out there.

On many other MMOs out there, they have totally divorced equipment you get for stats, and equipment you wear because they look awesome. The two don't need to be the same, and trying to make them the same is a losing venture because what one person thinks is awesome, another person thinks looks tacky.

The solution, appearance slots. This is all the more feasible with our sudden windfall of inventory(from 100 to 200), plenty of room for more equipment.

In basic, give us two equipment screens. In one, the items you put in work like right now, increasing your stats and giving functionality.

In the second, the items OVERRIDE the first item's appearance, but give absolutely zero(0) stats.

If there is an item in #1 but not #2, you get #1's appearance.

If there is an item in #2, it displays.

If there is no item in either, underwear time.

If you enact this system, people will be able to wear what they want to match their vision of their character, with whatever color and material pleases them. Customization satisfaction will raise, I promise it.
