If I do so, I'll just have a Nezha set taking up space in my inventory, which means I paid extra money to be able not to use it.

Things get even worse when you realise gender lock IS an issue now. It would be kind of acceptable if we had the option to become a male Viera, but that is not the case. There will be a lot of people becoming Vieras, just losing their money without realising and with no other option. Want to play Viera? Your money is now wasted. Of course, same case applies to female characters becoming Hrothgar.

Why isn't there an option to equip them like the last 2 summer events? They are unisex but their appearance changes depending on the gender.

Hope this changes and to be of help to anyone who didn't know this.
How is your money wasted? You bought those items with your current character in mind. If you were to fantasia into any female race you would encounter the very same issue. I'd be looking at things a little differently, and changing genders will now give you access to a whole theme park of glamours you previously did not have access to.

I do understand where you are coming from though. For the money spent, being able to trade a piece of gear from one gender for another seems perfectly reasonable, but it's all about the benjamins.
