Yeah I was thinking it's likely based on an eastern sense of fashion/beauty too, and because NX NA doesn't release/do anything that players want there is no sense in appealing to them for some more American trends like tomboy clothing lol
Going back to what Osay said, I agree that I would rather stuff be more fitting to the time frame which Mabinogi is set in and so I'm not necessarily asking for modern suit-type outfits, even just some more nice/formal pant outfits would be fine. However, they're putting suits and dressy stuff in the game which wouldn't really have been around in this time anyway so I just feel like they should take the mens suits but make them unisex so women can wear it too.
--------------------------
If we took the time-frame for which mabinogi is in out of consideration for choosing some outfits, here are just a couple examples I'd like to see. As you'll see, they are feminine still and most of the models are actually asian (had trouble finding any that weren't asian lol)
