Delightfully Dizzying Dresswear
Shows that features characters with a wonderful array of clothing changes. Something I'm not usually picky about (...looking at my own style choices I have no right lol), however I do also think styling IS an element that is also important in story telling, and if a character is shining because of it, all the better, so let's put some spot light on it.
Titles are preferably on here if they had many costume changes.
Disclaimer: I know there is a lot more in styling than JUST making the character look good, but again I know next to nothing about clothing and styles and whatnot so... Ima just go with look good lol. (I do pick up on the story elements and color schemes though, so I might add the ones I picked up on as well though)

Less so the amount of costume changes, though there are changes as character's spots in the world changes, but more so the shear amount of costuming for different races, different tribes, and groups, making two styles for one person because they have a long lost twin, etc. We've got the Wahan tribe, the Saram (& another), the Neathals, and more tribes with their own ways that may be similar, but also a little different due to their own beliefs/location.

A lot of fans like to poke fun at the fact Zhang Zhe Shu(ZZS) and Wen Ke Xing(WKX) are wanderers, as in travelers, as in not going home/having a home to go to, and not carrying any sort of bags for clothes and the like, somehow still have a new change of clothes at least once an episode, sometimes multiple episodes.
I'm a fan of loose and flowy, so ZZS's after Window of Heaven are definitely my favorite of the bunch, but the WKX and the others are nice as well.
One also has to pay attention to small details in their costuming. Small references in hair pieces to the past, color play between the two(ZZS &WKX), complimenting each other or pulling the other's color in their own clothing.
