I was thrilled when they updated female armour to no longer have cleavage slits or other unnecessarily revealing bits. Since then there seems to have been a steady trend with new motifs/outfits where if it is not revealing for a male character, neither is it revealing for a female one. Armour is meant to protect, no matter which gender you are. That is a trend I'd like to see continue, but an outright 'hide chest' or 'hide legs' option would absolutely butcher the attempt that was made by ZOS to keep things at least slightly realistic.
While I agree with you (I also don't want to see bikini plate armor and high heels on female knights) I would like more variety on armors. Light "armor" is not really armor, it doesn't have a protection role like leather or metal, so because it is clothing, it can be more revealing in some cases. For Redguards it makes sense for them to have a lighter outfit with more revealing shirts because of the hot climate they live in.
I don't think this costume was so bad, I really liked it and I was disappointed when they rolled back these:
This is the old Redguard disguise, I think it is Forebear (early 2015, Valley of the Blades quest)
If you are an old TES fan you know the outfits in the previous games were much more revealing for certain classes of NPCs. Games like Daggerfall had such outfits and the good thing with it is how original they were, those outfits were iconic for that game. However knights or warriors still had full armor.

Also, know im gonna get hate but i disagree with hiding all different armors but helms and shoulders. We dont need to be running around nekkid, and if someone does, just use the nordic bathing towel.

Finally, the whole "light armor shouldnt just be clothes" argument is faulty to me. Light material is literally cloth, so by nature, its not going to be thick like leather and metal armors.
I'd like to see the option.
Though, tbf, they have been getting better with their shoulder piece designs. And a lot of people are going to think they look good hiding shoulders and they won't (some of the way the armors look with no shoulders at all are not good).

I proposed making Emperor's New Clothes style for Jester's Festival some time ago. I'm for making all of the slots hideable, I myself wouldn't run around naked but I like to have options. I don't care about how other players look. After bright and loud magenta armor dyes, Orcs in wedding dresses ant nordic bathing towels theres not much to ruin in that regard. THis is an MMO and unfortunately rp is not important to everyone. Deal with it.

Which looks like you've got a bunch of bark tied to you with vines. It's ugly as sin.
