Costume suggestion: Monks Robe
When the Magic Set came out one of the devs (I think it was BABs but it might not have been) said that long skirts/robes are pretty much impossible to do for player characters without looking very, very silly when used with certain animations. That's why the magic Set got the Baron Jacket and the Bolero rather than actual robes.
Indeed, the leg clipping issues are ridiculous. Just look at any character running in a pencil skirt. Legs poke out everywhere.

That would require an entirely new bottom type, if we were given a "Long skirts" option using the method of not modeling the legs underneath. And that means UI coding. No mean feat; might require a new attachment point too. I've also heard it has issue with body proportion sliders.
Also, not modeling the legs would require the bottom of the skirt to be closed off, so as to avoid the problem of looking at a character from below and seeing nothing but a void above the character's knees, and looking at the costume parts we've been getting lately, I highly, highly doubt that the devs would find closing off the bottom to be an acceptable solution.

I'd like to suggest a new costume piece. A 1 piece long flowing closed robe. I imagine something similar to a closed trench-coat, but floor length, similar to what a monk would wear. Nothing fancy and no adornments. Combining it with one of the hoods would be optional, and you already have the rope belt.
