I'm deeply troubled

To me, the idea of exposing parts of the inner thighs/crotch area as depicted in the original design just feel “off”...

I personally found it quite fitting, considering the overall design. It reminded me of a one-piece body/swimsuit, with the crotch cloth being redundant in terms of exposure and only there for style reasons.

Looking back at the original, I don't think it translated too well. Instead of the original block heels, they seem to have gone for thin ones. The high neck didn't quite make it either and the wide collar seems... off. Looks too wide to me, not emphasizing the original V-Cut design. The back wing part looks nicely done while standing and was likely the focus of the design team, but I kinda dread seeing it in action while moving, lul.

The body piece being problematic was kinda obvious. Since they intended to use it as standard loot somewhere, it was clear they'd separate it into legs and chest (they 'can' link multiple slots, as proven in items like the antecedent attire or the tincan armors of ARR). I'm curious how the back will look, since this is the first time I've seen a picture of the ingame rendition, but I wager it'll just be the usual baggy pants here.

Ah well! I'm just positively thrilled to see the female version now. If that has the crotch holes, I'll laugh. Hard.

I will be absolutely pissed and the devs will never know since I post in English on their forums.

I'm so tired of this game's insistence that only women can have sexy options. They're fine with stuffing me into robe after dress after skirt but god forbid I want to be cool and a bit steamy as a caster...
