Can we please have better Glamour?

This is basically on par with the idea that a Barbarian, or nearly bare/Bare Armor isn't protective at all..,(it is, just depends on what the intention is.., like if you have a shield, what needs protection is arms/shoulder and legs/lower leg at minimum asides head maybe)

For me, I find some of the stuff interesting and the amount I can make outfits with is pretty large.., but hence they are not accountwide, I'll never touch em/buy.
[if it was, I'd sink so much money in an instant.]

There are many things one can look at.<like my reference to Barbarians above>
Be it Practicality/Basic Use. Style/Era/Timeline/Culture/Zone Appropriate.
or Simple Preference or expectation.
High Tech/C.Punky<but mostly Allagan rly> is coveted.
Practicality and Looks like it can do the bare minimum needed to protect. is out the window, and or there are ways to protect without even needing to cover the core at all.
and If its appropriate for the area. Tbh no one is dressed for the areas they are in. not even for swimming, or diving most of the time. and people know Old Future Tech Exists, and Sturdy Freshly Smith ye Olde styled armor Is made everyday. <whilst npcs make whatever they wish to wear. or the devs make them wear.>

tldr.
like others said. There is soo much we can wish for them to add but none of it has priority over others.
Ungender locking, Class Req Removal, and "Male, and/or Female and/or Etc" Styled Clothing made. so people can mix and match what they wish for.
This will go on forever to cover. But all know it's an exercise in futility.
unless the devs suddenly get an interest in a certain Outfit Style to Design for the foreseeable patches.

I’d like less modern lvl 1 gear for awhile. We’ve gotten lots. Fantasy themed clothes please!

6.2 has plenty of (final) fantasy themed clothing, as well as every patch prior

[Tsiron]

Right. Now if only they were lvl 1 and for All Classes, too...

There are a few.

[Tsiron]

Yes, and unfortunately they're all modern (or near enough) clothes yet again.

Like, even ignoring that I'd personally rather they did away with restrictions altogether, why do we only get "Fantasy" Glams like the now super old Expeditioner sets, or the Wayfarer set, which they didn't even bother giving pants, once in a blue moon while we're drowning in minor variations of the same modern jackets, shirts, slacks etc. (not to mention the dozens of Eastern-themed Glams on the online store) at this point?

There is the replica skywhater set...The... um... The hempen set... That one brown robe that sort of looks like a mumu... i'm sure there is more I'm missing.
Oh yeah! There are the PvP sets but depending on your stance on PvP, they might not count. lol

You mean the PVP sets that can no longer be obtained by any means? Up to and including the Archfiend set, which they'd outright stated would continue to be obtainable in the near future?

Personally, I think the modern sets are ugly and never use them. But it's w/e I guess. I feel like there's plenty of fantasy sets that are released.

What I want though is caster stuff without them being robes/dresses every. single. time.

Some design decisions seriously make me scratch my head. Like they'll have a good design but then start adding extra things or omitting things that just ruin it. For example, the scholar's arbatel chest piece. Great top until they added the stupid front cape.
Or the dai-ryumaku sets. One of the most shogun-esque looking sets and very fitting for samurai. But instead, they gave samurai/mnk the tank set with the arms chopped off when they should have kept the sleeves on.
Even the new savage set for sam/mnk irritates me. I love most of the set but they made the ugliest, clunkiest boots that go with it. And the only thing I can match it with is the shadowcleaver boots which I can't even get.

I could go on and on.

I'm sure these things look great as a drawing, but when they convert them over, some just look plain ugly and makes me think 'wtf were they thinking?'
