Maybe cuz I'm used to the red outfit, I mean she's had red since wotlk? I like the old one waaay more. I just don't associate the new outfit with Sylvanas.

As long as she ends up dead and looted.

Gaming and WoW stuff
There's a dissonance between her in-game design and her cinematic appearance. This is making more closely reflective of her face in the BFA cinematics. More eye detail, the more pronounced permanent tear streaks, etc.
It all went downhill when they hid her boobs. Don't like either of those models. I want my sexy Sylvanas back.
Not really sure why everyone is so interested in the Warchief's clothes but ok, she will still be leading in Shadowlands in new threads it seems
They should fix her thigh armor poking through her arms. But I doubt they will bother.
She looks chunkier, but just compared to her old model. Her old model was gaunt, Which made sense as she was the leader of the undead. I'm not sure why they trying to make her look more lively now. Even when I look at her from the high end cinematics she still manages to look gaunt in her face. (In most of them)
This irritates me immensely with Nightborne models. I don't want faces that look like they starve themselves or recovering junkies. I want normal looking faces. I don't care for massive cheekbone definition/cheeks that are sunk in. They are healed and eating lots of fruit. Ya they can keep the old facials but add some new ones. Give me the option.
Anyways back to Elvira/Sylvanas..the only thing I would really say that actually bothers me about the new model is her attire.
I liked her oldest look back in vanilla. Nothing says queen of the undead like random bouncing.
I actually love the changed face, I find it to be a major improvement over her previous face model which looked like an alien and had terrible texturing.
However! I'm not really feeling her costume. It's WAY over the top, and those spikes are nasty. I liked Sylvanas' Legion/BFA design because it was elegant and streamlined, it was basically perfect. This thing right here is choppy, it represents everything that's wrong with WoW's designs. Overdesigned, protruding parts everywhere. It lacks personality. Really, it doesn't really say "Sylvanas". I pray to God this is only a temporary look and IF she survives this expansion she'll change her clothes to something less tacky and more befitting of her character. Really, for such a talented art team, they sure make the dumbest decisions sometimes...
An artist on twitter has actually managed to improve the design

I like this much more
You know, I was kinda half-joking when I said that my ideal Sylvanas plotline in SL is if she trips in some stairs in Torghast and dies in the first patch, but with how everyone seems intent on having her run around the place in high heels it doesn't feel that unreasonable anymore.
