As an expansive open-world game,Skyrimhas a number of cosmetics players can obtain for their Dragonborn, most of which are armor. They often have stats that can better allow them to soak damage from enemies, or dish out more from specific weapons.

This is where the modding community has come in to save the day, allowing players to deck out their player character in fashionable outfits, so they can look great even while slaying dragons and saving the world.
10Winter Is Coming - Cloaks
If players have traversed the vast world withinSkyrim, they will know just how cold it can be with snow-capped mountains and icy vistas wherever they look. As such, the dragonborn might need to wrap themselves up in warm clothing to protect from the cold, even if there is no in-game dangers fromthe weather conditions.
This is where theWinter is Coming modcomes in handy. It allows players to wrap up their dragonborn in a thick, fur-trimmed cloak designed to protect them from the cold, while also fitting in with the aesthetic of the world. What’s more, players also are given a recipe, allowing them to create their own cloaks rather than spend time hunting one down in-game.
9Elven Dresses
For those with a female dragonborn they want to dress up in pretty clothing, players need to look no further than thisElven Dresses mod. Those who play the game know that the Skyrim somewhat is lacking in the dress department after all, and will definitely need to download this one.

After downloading this mod, players can obtain these dressvia the consol command, or by crafting them at a tanning rack.

7Ashara Romantic Outfit
If players want to add a splash of romantic aesthetic into their game, theAshara Romantic Outfit modis here to help. It offers some more exciting outfit options to the lackluster roster of non-armor clothing, very few of which are aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
Thankfully, this mod is here to change that, offering stylish romantic outfits for both female and male characters, allowing them to dress as though they are from ahistorical point of the real world. Though it doesn’t seem like its in-keeping withSkyrim’slore, the fashionable flare they offer more than makes up for this. With multiple color options, and an optional wedding dress, this is a must-have fashion mod.
6The Witcher 2 - Eilhart Dress
Fans ofThe Witchershould addThe Witcher 2 - Eilhart Dress modto their list of essentials, as it adds someWitchergoodness into their game. It adds the dress as an optional piece of clothing that belongs toone of the famed sorceress’sfrom the Lodge, Phillipa Eilhart.
The dress doesn’t spawn in locations across the world-map, so players will have to find a place to craft it themselves if they want to garb their dragonborn in the stylish dress.
5Queen Of The Damned - Akasha Dress
Thanks toDawnguard, vampires became part of theSkyrimcanon, allowing players to recruit vampiric companion Serana and evenbecome a vampire themselves. As such, these dragonborn deserve dark fashion to suit this dark part of themselves, which the modding community have added.
TheQueen of the Damnedmodadds the Akasha dress into its fashion roster, allowing female dragonborn to deck themselves out in a dramatically dark dress with silver chain accessories at the front and a tall, gothic collar. Once the mod is installed, players can find the dress in a chest in Mehrunes Dagon’s shrine.
4Colovian Noble Clothes
The noble clothes in the game are somewhat lacking in style points, leaving a lot of room for improvement. Furthermore, the finery clothes seem available only to the NPCs, meaning players couldn’t garb themselves in the finery clothes even if they wanted to.

However, there is a mod available to fix these issues calledColovian Noble Clothes. This mod improves the clothes that the noble lord and ladies wear in the game while also allowing the players to avail themselves of them. The finery sets are available for both male and female player characters, and compatible with any body type, as fashion should not be locked to a specific weight.
3Triss' Dress
If there are any fans ofWitcher’ssorceresses amongSkyrimplayers, there is a second mod they should install along with the one that allowed players to dress up their female dovahkiin win Phillipa Eilhart’s dress, and it is the mod forTriss’s dress.

2Nocturnal Dresscode
Fans ofSkyrimwill recognize Nocturnal asone of the Daedric Prince’sof the world, and one of the few who communicate with the Dragonborn in their true form, which is that of a young and rather beautiful woman, garbed in a dark robe-like dress with bell sleeves, a hood, and a daring neckline.
Nocturnal’s great taste in fashion has raised some jealousy among players, enough to create a mod that allows players to steal her look.Nocturnal’s Dresscode modadds three variants of her robes, including a gold and white chain, leopard print, or classic black.
1Moving Wings
Skyrimis mostly a dark and gritty fantasy game with definite inspiration taken from the Viking era, leaving little to no room for any sort ofwhimsical element, but there are mods that fix this issue by allowing players to add fae features to their character, in this instance in the form of wings.
The Moving Wings moddoes exactly as it says on the tin, allowing players with characters of any gender or race to equip a pair of animated wings in the style of butterfly, dragonfly, or feathery angel wings.
