Are costumes unable to be dyed?

I see so many people wearing the exact same costume. Everyone looks exactly the same.

Just out of curiosity, are they unable to dye their costumes or something? If this is the case, why do people continue to buy these pre-assembled costumes? Again, just out of curiosity, because as I said, I'll be in a small room with several people wearing the exact same thing. Yet another vampire in that wedding suit outfit, dyed black. How cliche.

    That's not a wedding dress, it's an "evening dress" :wink:

    ZoS would make less money if you could dye them. so that's why you can't ;)

    They said they are working on making it possible to dye them, but no ETA.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    No, you currently cannot dye costumes. However, they have said that they are working on this for the future. People are buying them either in anticipation of that time, or just because they like them. (They're also new, and new stuff sells.)

    I actually don't think this is the case. At least not yet. It certainly would be true if all of a sudden you had to buy the same design over and over to get different colors, but that's not happening. Right now, since it's still one design/color per costume, I don't think it's fair to say that there's a money grab happening. If ZOS came out with dyes tomorrow, I would think that the sale of costumes would increase by quite a bit because of the customization.
