Before the release of GW2, there were claims that we would be able to wear pretty much any clothing that we see on an NPC. Than might be a bit too ambitious but what about releasing the NPC clothing as an outfit? I know outfits arn’t the most popular of gem store items (atleast on reddit)but since we’re not getting them as armours we could atleast get them as outfits.
There we’re already data mines of ‘’countess Anise’’ outfit which was one of the most wanted armour sets but now it will come out as an outfit. But I’m not just talking about the most iconic ones. I mean the every day ones. Like normal worker clothes, Emi from the boar event in Queensdale, awesome looking charr in Black citadel.
Those are just the few that, IMO look good and I would buy it if it came on sale. And if it would make a job easier for anet, release the outfit only for the characters of same race and gender that the NPC wearing it is. This might not be the most popular choice, but only like this we might see some NPC clothing see the light of day on characters.

Nothing wrong with more outfits and the NPC clothing would be a good place to look for ideas. One thing I do wonder about though is, how much work is it to convert an NPC clothing to an outfit. It taken them close to 3 years just to get the Anise outfit (almost) ready to sell.

Be careful what you ask for
