The low textures is probably making things difficult but honestly the people who love the new footman outfit. It'll get old eventually.

Why do people like this exist.
Really, just stop complaining...
With the addition of transmog all your complains are void. The game has PLENTY of options. We used to be forced to equip whatever was our BiS and live with it. Clear AQ40 and use ctrl+click to showroom the stuff there. Most of the stuff is beyond ugly. Not over the top, but just hideous colors and plain designs.
The difference is that it is highly likely that set is NPC available only, and even if most of the gear that is toned down still looks over the top, because we never really get simplistic looking plate armour without all of these massive shoulders, malformed heads and over-sized gauntlets. But I do wish this guard set to be available to players, we need much more small details like on this armour like the small scratches and roughness of it, as well as the under-layer of chainmail we need a lot more of
I'm a big fan of all the choices we have in xmog. I would really like to see more simple styles of armor with active graphics that come from them making them seemingly more powerful.

The garrisons bringing in transmogable enchants is soooooo badass. Very excited to use those too.
There is so called normal armor from lvl 1-100. Lvling and random drop sets
"It's the style of Warcraft" can only run so far. The aesthetics established in WC3 and Vanilla or even BC never reached the ridiculous proportions of silly gear design. Weapons and armor.
Blizzard doesn't know what a fucking sword is, for example. Nothing amazing like Frostmourne has ever been put out for our use. Instead we get chunky foot-wide slabs of metal with random shit attached to it.
Warrior S16 is ruined by the spikes, otherwise it could be a good set.
Too many fucking open-face helmets. There is an option to turn the helmet off if Blizzard wanted us to see our toons' faces so damn much.
Most modern sets don't even look coherent. It's as if a bunch of five year olds hyped up on shitty anime were made in charge of all player gear design.
Maining a Blood Elf, I love very simple and elegant transmogs. I don't like the bulky shoulders many transmogs have now. I just want a very downplayed set to use!
The only thing i don't like about newer armor sets and wod sets are that every shoulder item seems to have some sort of visual proc.
Like for an example the season 16 warrior elite set. It annoys me that they seem to have an mechanical function of raising and lowering the spikes each 30 seconds or something like that. I'd be annoyed half the time looking at my warrior and liking the raised spikes more than the lowered.

There is only so much you can do with 'simple' and there are loads of simple armor sets available from professions which can be transmogged into. It;s a fantasy game...bring on the fantasy equipment.
