If Zos wants to add some real value to Homestead, they should introduce transmog system tied with some newly designed crafting station and NPCs we would have to hire as permanent residents in homes large enough to house us all. Weapon smith would be able to transmog and dye our weapons and staves, armorer could be one to help us transmog our armors, and I am pretty sure there could be a farming system beyond that, so we would be forced into grinding some unique stuff needed for the process. Also, these NPC's could have separate style base from our chars, so we would farm motifs for them as well. Would be kinda interesting, and transmog items would be bound to us anyways, so no exploiting the system would happen at any time. And for ppl who want to instant hire these specialized crafters, Zos would make them avaliable in crown store for sure, just as we have banker and merchant there atm. So, its win win situation. We get to look as we please, and Zos gets to earn ton of cash for almost zero effort.

Are they ever going to introduce transmogrification like WoW?

...one can hope so!

And the best idea I found so far on that account is the "transformation stone" concept here: https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/340849/two-ideas-how-to-introduce-any-gear-in-any-style-functionality-into-eso-transmog/p1
...allowing master crafters to buy the ability to craft magical "transformation stones" for every motiv they know, thus raising the value of crafting And crown store bought motivs (see ZOS? there is -profit- to be made with this idea!), which then can be used by anyone to change a piece of gear to the style they are crafted for (so we'd have breton stones, dunmer stones, dwemer stones, etc.), and might be traded in every guild store...
...possibly also requiring a rare to farm base resource to craft said stone (something like nirncrux or perfect roe rare), which them also could be sold in the crown store for those with more money then patience (see ZOS? There's a second chance to make more profit here!)...

Age of Conan vanity tab is best.

Actually I always disliked the "vanity tab" options, since it allows people to enjoy heavy armor protection yet use dancers silks visuals, and that just rubs my RPG sense as wrong...

Personally I'd prefer it if even costumes were divided into "combat costumes" with armor visuals, and "non combat costumes" like all those dresses and such that unequipped like a disguise during combat...
...well, or that wearing a costume reduced your armor to the visuals of said costume. So, no matter what you actually wore, in "dancers silks" costume you'd have no armor whatsoever, and in "wizard robe" costume only your light armor would be counted, and in "thieves leather" costume your medoium armor, and only in "knight armor" costume you'd get heavy armor protection as well...

Looks like someone's got a case of the Mondays.

Zos stated this past year they were not interested offering restyling at this time.

Considering Zos went a lazy route of one piece costumes the restyling would compete with crown store costumes. I expect this is their reasoning internally.

It also cost them money as well though. For example I think most the costumes are not very nice so I don't buy them. But several of the motifs have caught my eye. I would buy them. But they are virtually useless to me. So that is a no go. The motifs also usually cost more then the costumes. But again I have no reason to buy them.

I actually think they just don't want to spend the time and money to redesign the system. It obviously can't do it now, since you can't restyle most found sets. I think the cost/time to make this happen they just see as to large.
