@captthreepwood Yeah, it is like that - people treat dresses like fun cosmetic and not something real to wear and only a few guys like me wearing them seriously, but to be honest I didn’t see anyone with dress on for a while..
It's also matches good with game design, so seeing something like this wouldn't be a bad thing at all. And if we count Chinese outfits, new masks, curses and all the other stuff - pure white simple dress is not something crazy or “goes beyond” pirate theme.
I played as a male character until 600-700 hours in the game and after that I only had a female character which made the dresses something special, but there aren't many simple ones that would make you wear them and in addition some of them cut your hair so rough that it starts to look terrible.
Luckily the developers in the last ~5 seasons have added simple and pretty good tops, but it would be very & very wonderful to see some nice and simple bottoms with elegant summer simple dresses!
