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.
I have a (very) long running 3.5e game with a group of friends that is about to wrap up before the end of this year. Every character is level 19 and we got here the hard way, using XP count from stat blocks. Suffice to say we've made a lot of money and optimized our builds to a considerable degree.
On my character sheet right now, inside of my Big Ass Bag Of Holding™️, I'm just going to copy and paste this directly (gold count is the cost of the item in case I ever want to sell these - don't worry, I won't) :
I've only had one opportunity to actually use this so far, but it was brilliant, and I plan to pull it out again after we wrap up this campaign and I take over the late lich king's kingdom on the moon. I think it'll look nice for my coronation.
Got to look nice for fancy imaginary parties
