More outfits in the Crown Store

I'm a sucker for outfits and costumes. I always want to look good. Will we see any more outfit packs in the crown store at some point? Also to everyone else: what kind of outfits would you want to see in the crown store?

I would like to see good outfits. I don't need a Halloween costume, just some nice shirts and pants in the style of elder scrolls, though maybe without trying to "drab" the way the clothes fit/hang so much. enough with the pendulum swing to gritty/dirty/drab, that only gets countered by flamboyant. If they want to do jesters' costumes and wedding dresses, that's fine, but how about a snappy looking shirt, pants, skirt, or dress with nice embroidery/patterns, and cut to fit nicely.
I'd also like more hairstyles added in, and I'd buy them through the crown store if they were account-wide, reasonably priced, and came with the ability to switch hairstyles. I don't find it very immersive for a character to have to have one hairstyle for life.

I've been eagerly awaiting the two dresses that were in a preview a few weeks ago. Ever since Morrowind my TES characters have always had a set of 'town clothing' to change into when they're in cities and other non-combat areas. I've stolen a few things that work for the male characters but had absolutely no luck with dresses and those would be perfect.

You realize that no matter what costume you buy, you will still look the same, like a guy who just left cash shop?

Oh no! Imso worried now. Anything I get is for me, not for other people. By the way, what is wrong with people spending more money on the game? That means the game keeps being developed.

Not necessarily. They could keep the money (profit, right?), especially if we are talking about more money, above certain point, or spend them without actually developing/maintaining the game, e.g. back on cash shop or ads.

I think the people who have jobs with this company want to keep them. In order to do that, you need to keep customers returning. I don't have a problem with the investors trying to make money, as this game obviously had a lot of costs before taking in any revenue. There should be a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. We can argue how big it should be, but if the shoe were on the other foot you'd eventually want ROE to return to your own pocket instead of constantly cycling back into the game for some mythical payday.
Has zenimax/bethesda ever considered using the crowdfunding method to add content to the game? that way they get guaranteed pay for developed content, even if it is just a costume or pet they wanted to sell, upon completion. I've seen crowdfunding used for boardgames and expansions, can't fathom why it wouldn't be a viable, actually preferable business model for MMO's.
