I know she’s meant to be a “Blade Dancer”, but that doesn’t explain the random outfit at all. Every one is in some for of practical clothing (except our boy, he owns ten pairs of the same outfit of course haha), armour or gear. We even saw a flashback of sister in her belly dancing getup haha. Just a bit odd.

A 'dancer' type fighter in cultivation and fantasy manhwa have a style that focuses on 'elegance' especially for movement. So the extra cloth attachment on her arms swirl with the sword, the free hair and you know the rest.
Yes it's not 'practical' at all. Maybe she has techniques like 'taunt' 'charm' or other skills which seek attantion from enemies, that way she can use her outfit effectively.
@Eden Gremory thank you for your insight, you make good points. If there are logical aspects attached to armour appearances then I’m sold.
When a male is covered in full steel plate from head to toe but a female of the same class is in a thong and chain mail over her chest only, it is lovely to look at yes however makes no sense at all to me haha. If the stats are the same, then shît, hand me a thong and chain mail tank top as well man. Let’s let the ba*** breathe a little. Get stuck to the ol’ leg too many times as it is even wihout fighting whilst wearing a kettle all day.

In the end I'm justifying it lol. It's fan service with some thought behind it is all, mostly fan service.
Cheers.
@Surfa the practical outfit for her fighting style is light and flexible with full degree of movement, even more so than assassin types. Think of it like an agility based fighter that uses her legs, sabers, and large swinging slashes that basically make her body spin like a top -.- Loose fitting clothes with full mobility around the joints; there can't be any stretching when they fold their body in half both front and back, do splits, etc. Her clothes are kind of accurate as far as type... design choice... eeehhhhh.
