Questiong about Glamour Dresser changes in 4.3

Can't you use the emperor's New clothes glamour items? I don't know why you would intentionally plan a glamour with a slot unglamored

It would show bare skin/no items there, not the base item. For example, I have all of my crafters glamoured to something unique except for my GSM. I like my Ala Mhigan top for my GSM. Now, for this situation it's ok because all of my other glams are class specific so they just won't show on my GSM, but if I had something else - say, the ala mhigan gown - as the top for my Weaver, any time I'd switch to my GSM outfit I'd still be wearing it, even though I just want the base item I'm wearing. If you had the true griffin robe of healing on and you wanted that as your WHM outfit, glamming the yaefemi top of healing for your AST would mean it would also show on your WHM instead of the robe since they're not class specific.

Although of note, now you can just put the base item into the chest, apply it to the plate, then remove it and wear it.

It seems that using glamour plates, you can glamour an item as itself. So now that items placed in the dresser can be removed, it might in some cases be possible to put the gear item in the dresser, set up a plate outfit including that appearance, remove the item and equip it, and then that plate will glamour the item as itself (effectively working the same as a glamour dispeller on that item).

The downside to that is if you need to preserve customizations that the dresser removes (materia, for instance). In that case you wouldn't want to put the real gear in the dresser temporarily like that. For cases like that, I saw a good suggestion from Aurturia in another thread. It uses the fact that if a non-displayable glamour is applied, you instead see the underlying item. So you can add something to the glamour plate that's incompatible with the intended class/job (like a DoW-only shirt for a crafter glamour, for instance) as a way of making that glamour plate reset your appearance to the equipped item's default appearance.
