Sentinel Regal Guard style—A weird and badly dyeing mess.

I'm not sure where to begin in this type of "review" with this style. In the crown store preview it can look perfectly fine at first, but in the outfit station you notice more and more things that are either weird or bad.
Guess the most common question when it comes to styles is fitting, which is: How does it dye?
Quite badly and inconsistently. Similar to some other newer styles, such as Blind Path Cultists, so do the dyes behave like they are at 50% strength mixed with grey. Dyes I usually find obnoxiously bright and saturated are not so on this style. Many are also less shiny and have other effects reduced to some degree.
Also, several parts can't be dyed! Large ones!
Some examples:
Things like Fire Drake becomes a dark red, which is kinda funny because this dye often looks like the default colour's red on most things. The very bright Anequina Sunrise is a rather nice medium orange. Void Pitch is oddly a rather normal black with little of its shine or purple hint visible. Then we have one of the brightest white dyes in the game, Julianus White, which here is quite grey. Frozen Blood is one of the shiniest dyes, and it did turn things a bit shiny.
No dye can be used to match the default red nor warm white/light beige. Soul Shriven Pale becomes much more darker and grey-beige.
An inconsistency can be seen through several parts, like how the crotch flap ends up much brighter than others parts.
The dye channels:
They are a bit odd. Things I expect to be dyed the same, as in the same channel position, are not.
The design:
What is going on at the waist? It's so busy with stuff that doesn't make much sense. ZOS also seem to love these hoods that are tucked and pulled in around the neck.
Visible in this next picture will also be some weird design (The beige on the chest is also the closest I could match the mask's default light beige)
It looks like it's supposed to be some layered clothes here, but on the right shoulder and arm it's just a straight line between the two different clothing items. Meanwhile the left shoulder has a fold and clearly gives the look of being two different articles of clothing.
We can also see a view around to the back of the waist here too.
I'm hoping I can get a refund on this, because it's quite a mess and I do not want to support more styles like this.
