You can seem 1 foot shorter or taller and can appear heavier or lighter. You must adopt a form that has the same basic arrangement of limbs as you have. Otherwise, the extent of the illusion is up to you.

Every RPG group I have ever been with has used either a magic item or spell to make change purely for cosmetic reasons. This is true regardless of gender and how power gaming the group is. The Cloak of Billowing is a 5e item favorite and is usually requested at item creation or in the first magic shop. I do want to get Mask of Many Faces just for fancy dress on my next character now.

Personally, I'm a big fan of the 'useless magic item' and try to get one to each of my players. Lots of them are cosmetic: helmets with glowing eyes, cloak of billowing, squeaky shoes. Sometimes they're just weird, like the wand of create wand which is a one-charge wand that crumbles to dust after being used to make a wand of create wand

That's the kind of thinking that DND is all about. Time to fake the entire party being disintegrated for some reason with these dust piles
