Best Skyrim Clothing Mods

Posted on by

Why would I make a list of just the best accessory, when I could give you a complete guide to all the best clothing mods that exist in Skyrim?

The Falskaar mod is one of the most impressive and comprehensive mods you’ll find for Skyrim. It’s essentially the size of an official expansion and introduces a new continent with an incredible 25 hours of new material. The creator of this mod took around 2000 hours to make it and now works at Bungie. Another great clothing mod is Face Masks of Skyrim. It adds a single face mask (shown on the image above) which comes in 8 different variations. These are Back, Blue, Brown (leather), Green, Purple, Red, White and Yellow. It’s compatible with all races, although not recommended for Orcs due to clipping.

I’ve compiled the best outfit overhauls, ring additions, accessory modifications, and everything else I could find that would fit into the clothing category so you can completely change the way your character looks in the game.

I’ve taken the liberty to filter out some inappropriate mods from this list to keep it SFW(sorry to disappoint!)

I’ve also tried to avoid adding highly rated mods that simply added clothing items from other games, like Naruto’s Akatsuki robes, for example. If you notice anything from another game to have made it into my list, it’s because it fully deserves it.

Also I didn’t notice any of these mods clashing or being incompatible with one another, but keep in mind that I didn’t try them all at the same time – I did so in batches. They should still be compatible all at once, but bear this thought in mind anyway.

25. Wear Circlets with Hoods

This amazing mod allows you to wear circlets with hoods. Shocking, I know. However, it isn’t a simple as it seems.

This mod allows them to work together quite well indeed, as the creator of the mod definitely put some effort into creating it, and you won’t have any clipping issues when wearing them. It’s not just a mod that enables both things to work together, there were some visual changes involved in it.

There might still be some clipping issues with certain smaller hoods and bigger circlets, but in general you shouldn’t see any visual inconveniences while wearing both items.

Skyrim does have its visual clipping issues anyway, so it wouldn’t be too out of character if the circlets clipped through the hoods.

24. Dragonborn Mages Robes Retexture Pack

Are you not satisfied with the way the Dragonborn robes look? Maybe you somehow wish they would look… better?

Well, you’re a rather demanding person, aren’t you?

Thankfully someone had the exact same thought as you did. The Dragonborn Mages Robes Retexture Pack changes the way the four basic robes that were included in Dragonborn DLC look, making them look a bit more different and much better.

The mod is very easy to install, as mod other mods on this list. It’s just a visual change, but I dig it very much. Hopefully you will too!

23. Colovian Noble Clothes

Even though this mod was made for the Beyond Skyrim mod, the number of clothing items that it adds to Skyrim makes it one of the best clothing mods that I’ve come across.

The clothes are made with the same detail and degree of quality that you’ll find on the Beyond Skyrim mod itself, and it is made to suit the needs of even the most demanding dresser in the lands.

22. Bandanas of Skyrim

Man, this is an item that you probably didn’t know you wanted until you check this mod out.

It gives you the chance to craft bandanas in the game, and notice how I’m using the term in plural – not only are there different color variations of the item, but it also adds two types of bandanas: you can wear it tied and untied, which makes it a fashionable little item that you can use.

It’s a great clothing item to be worn by rogues and thieves. It would also suit an assassin as well, so you might want to give it a shot!

21. Diverse Priests

Skyrim priests are already quite dull on their own, why not spice things up a bit and at least change the way their robes are colored?

This mod might seem simple on its own, but it adds a necessary level of depth to the game by changing the colors of robes that priests wear, allowing them to actually look like different people and not as if they all praised the same Divine (or Daedric Prince).

20. JewelCraft

This mod might not have a direct influence on the clothing of Skyrim, but it adds the ability for you to craft almost every single piece of jewelry that exists in the game.

The mod aims to keep things as realistic as possible, so crafting the items will require you to gather the necessary metals.

It’s a super amazing mod, and one of the best jewelry additions of this list.

The creator of the mod is also very keen on updating the mod constantly, so you can expect various updates to be made to the JewelCraft mod as time goes by.

Let’s just hope they don’t get bored of updating it!

19. Archmage of Winterhold HD Retexture

Nope, this isn’t a new addition to the range of clothing that you have in Skyrim, nor will you be able to find this Archmage robe anywhere different from where you get them in base-game Skyrim.

You still need to complete the College of Winterhold questline if you wish to get your hands on the Archmage robes.

The mod does retexture the way the clothes of the Archmage look, and man, they look quite good once the mod is installed.

They change the basic clothes and add an HD look to them. I find the addition to be quite cool!

18. Linds’ Necromancer Robes Revamp

The level of detail that this Necromancer Robes have is just absolutely fantastic.

You will find them to be amazing to look in necromancers, as the name suggests, as they are dark with some gold finishes on it and they look absolutely fantastic.

They are much more detailed than the basic robes worn by Necromancers in vanilla Skyrim.

The Necromancer Robes made by Lind include a sweet skull on the design, which is also much more detailed than the regular robes worn by the Skyrim Necromancers throughout the forsaken lands of northern Tamriel.

17. Velvet Robes and Cloaks

You can guess what this mod adds to the game, I guess.

In case you don’t, it adds robes and cloaks made of velvet. There are different color variations that you can purchase and craft.

The mod has been constantly updated, and the models of the clothing items have been reworked multiple times to get them to where they are today.

I have to say that these items do look as if they were vanilla, so the work put into making them so is as uncanny as it gets.

I fully recommend it if you like to have items similar to the ones that come in the base game.

16. Skyrim Scarves and Mufflers

Scarves!

There’s no better way to combat the cold environments that surround the northern lands of Tamriel than wearing some cool and well-knit scarves and mufflers.

How did no one at the Bethesda studios think about adding these?!

Skyrim

Granted, they’re not probably the warrior’s fashion choice, but man, they do seem to fit quite nicely into the game.

The game adds a ton of different variations of the items to the game as well, with over 50 of these fantastic clothing pieces having been introduced into Skyrim. You can craft them at the tanning rack, as they count as regular hide crafting items.

15. Opulent Outfits – Mages and Merchants

Opulent Outfits changes the way barkeepers and merchants dress in the game. It’s part of the Opulent Outfits mod pack, who has grown to become one of the finest additions of clothes to the community.

It’s also the first of two Opulent Outfits that made it into my list, and credit where it’s due – the creator of the mod managed to make some very elaborated and nice pieces of clothing.

They come in various colors and work in all types of bodies across the region. What’s not to love about this mod?

It adds so much variety and quality that your game will up its fashion game above its regular standards.

14. Hoods and Circlets

The Hoods and Circlets mod works similarly to the Wear Circlets with Hoods mod that took the 25th spot here.

But there’s a reason why this one is higher rated than the other one.

The level of detail is much better, and it only enables certain hoods to be worn with certain circlets, which removes the entire clipping issue almost on its entirety.

The mod has been updated and it now has almost no bugs, and you can always leave feedback on the creator’s page if you find any issues with it. I haven’t found any, and I’ve always wanted to wear circlets with hoods, so it took the 14th spot on this list!

13. DovahBling Jewelry

If you think the name of this mod is a bit tacky, wait until you see the mod itself. It literally adds bling to the game, and not just jewelry – literal bling.

Do you know those types of rings and pendants that some people wear?

Best skyrim armor mods xbox one 2019

Well there are now Skyrim versions of them. It’s just what it sounds like – bling jewelry but with Skyrim designs!

The mod also has one reason to make it so far up on my list.

All of the rings are craftable and it also adds a ten-ring system to the game, which allows the Dragonborn to wear all of their precious new items at once. You might look like a ridiculous clown.

But if that’s how you like it, that’s how you get it!

12. Prince and the Pauper

Well, reading the description of this mod makes it sound extremely classist, so I’m pretty sure its addition is going to piss off a lot of people on the left side of the political spectrum.

I swear that’s not my intention! The Prince and the Pauper mod changes the way most kids in the game dress to make their clothes reflect their social status more accordingly.

The mod itself is a clothing overhaul for children, and it does make them dress far more appropriately.

I like it a lot. But I wouldn’t advise you to download it if you often go to those everyone should be equal rallies.

11. Mage Backpack

Why would a traveling mage not wear a backpack? Ask that to Bethesda, because the creator of this mod hit the nail straight in its head.

The Mage Backpack mod adds a completely lore-friendly backpack to the game, which contains items that a traveling mage would carry around on their back.

It also adds a cool quest that you’ll need to finish if you want to obtain it.

It’s not as easy as it seems, but it will be worth your effort and time at the end of the road!

10. Fur Hoods HD

Skyrim winters are cold, and most of the hoods that come with vanilla Skyrim do a crappy job at keeping your head warm.

Fur Hoods HD adds a new type of hood that is sure to withstand even the coldest of Skyrim winters, and you’ll love the way it was designed.

It looks really cool, and that’s my completely unbiased opinion.

9. Common Clothes Mod

Clothing overhauls, anyone? This mod adds new clothes to the game, and the number of clothes that it adds is absolutely ridiculous.

The mod contains over 100 new different clothes that you’ll be able to find across the lands of Skyrim or craft them at the tanning rack if you’re too desperate to get them.

With literally a hundred items to choose from, this is the mod you want to download if you’re tired of the vanilla outfits!

8. Sabre Gear Backpack

If you’re playing a hunter in Skyrim, then this mod is going to be one you love.

It fits the lore of the game perfectly as it only adds backpacks made using animal fur, but most importantly, it makes your character look like a fearless badass.

It matches the Sabre Cat Gear Mod outfits as well, as they were made by the same creators – check that one out for a cool-looking hunting outfit!

7. Opulent Outfits – Mage Robes of Winterhold

Alright, if you’ve ever had the feeling that Skyrim was lacking robes, just quit what you’re doing right now and download this mod.

Opulent Outfits adds a staggering 86 new clothing items to the game (all of which are robes for you to dress up on a daily basis or whenever you’re going to perform acts of necromancy).

Keep in mind that all of these items are made using high-quality textures, so they’ll look even better if you’re running graphic enhancement mods for Skyrim.

6. Face Masks of Skyrim

If you’re an assassin or a thief, this mod is going to suit you better than any other on this list.

Wear a face mask whenever you’re about to perform an assassination or robbery regardless of the race that you’re using to play (the mod works for Argonians and Khajit as well).

I mean, wearing them doesn’t mean that you won’t be identified by the guards, but it still makes you look cooler.

5. Rustic Clothing

Looking to overhaul your game to give it a Nordic feel?

Then check this mod out. It changes every single piece of clothing in the game to give it better textures as well as a look that turns each item into a more rustic version of itself.

Not much else to add, but don’t let that fool you – it’s a massive overhaul!

4. Improved NPC Clothing

Are you tired of seeing NPCs walk around in the same clothes all the time?

Well, this mod won’t fix that.

However it will improve NPC clothing by making the textures of all common robes and clothes in the game far better, using HD images in this complete clothing revamp.

3. Bandolier – Bags and Pouches

Ah, a mod that serves as a QOL addition as well as a regular clothing mod!

These are the ones I love to see.

This mod will add a variety of items that you can equip to your character to make him look cooler, but at the same time increase the carrying capacity in a lore-friendly way. It doesn’t make sense for a traveler not to wear at least some pouches on top of their clothes – especially given how many items one leaves behind in the game!

2. Winter is Coming

I have to tell you, I combined Winter is Coming – Cloaks with the mod that makes it so your character is heavily affected by the cold.

And it was one of the most immersive experiences that I’ve ever had in the game.

Don’t let the title of this mod fool you, though – this mod doesn’t add Game of Thrones cloaks to the game; the cloaks simply look like items that the characters wear in the famous TV show with one of the worst finales in television history.

1. Cloaks of Skyrim

This mod is taking the first spot on my list because of how amazingly well done the cloaks are.

They just make your character look fantastic, and there are almost 100 items that you can try out.

Never again will you feel that there aren’t enough clothing options in the game! It doesn’t matter if you’re a mage, an assassin, a rogue, a bandit, a thief, or even a commoner looking to wear new robes…

There’s one that’ll perfectly suit you in the Cloaks of Skyrim mod, and you’re gonna like the way you look. I guarantee it.

I think all NPCs in Skyrim look too similar.

There’s just something about the way they look that makes them all eerily similar, and over time I’ve grown to dislike that feeling. Especially after playing the game for so many years!

Well I say something must be done, for the sake of millions of TES players worldwide – so I decided to get my hands dirty and dive into the deep dark section of the Nexus to find some of the most unique NPC mods for Skyrim.

After scrolling through a surprising number of pages, I came across these mods that’ll make you wonder why you never grabbed these sooner!

From basic changes of NPC features, to outright total overhauls, this list is for you if you’re tired of getting the same vibes from every Skyrim NPC.

15. Gender & Race Heights

Have you ever wondered why everyone in the game is the same height?

I, for one, feel truly discriminated. I want my character to be as short as I am!

And I think it’s total bull that the height setting is just not there.

While this mod doesn’t help with my woes, it does make the height of females and males different according to their race. Makes sense!

14. The College of Winterhold NPC Improvement

As someone who’s played the College of Winterhold questline over 5 times (I don’t care what anybody says, I love it), it does get old looking at the same NPCs over and over again.

Especially considering most NPC characters look outdated after all these years.

This mod is truly something else when it comes to improving the cosmetic feel of the game.

It changes the appearance of all members of the College of Winterhold, designing them far more like real people, and far less like cartoonish beings.

A mod to get if you’ve replayed the game multiple times, and certainly worth getting if you intend to do it again.

13. Populated Lands, Roads, and Paths

Skyrim feels a bit dead at times. And even though I’ve strived to keep away from any NPC-specific mod, I think it’s more than fair that I add a mod like this one.

Best Skyrim Clothing Mods Curseforge

What it does is add new merchants, adventurers, travelers, and civilians to the many roads of Skyrim.

This should make you feel less lonely traveling around the world.

This mod is particularly special because of how simple it seems to be on paper.

Once you install it, you’ll realize how truly dead the game seems to be in vanilla. And how amazing it is to actually travel roads that don’t remind you of that dark alley where people got killed near your old place (maybe that’s just me, though).

12. Adventurers and Travelers

This one is pretty much the same as the last mod, but some minor differences.

It adds parties of travelers to the cities of the game, as well as to the various roads across the land of Skyrim.

This one, however, also adds these adventurers to certain towns.

Not only will your travels feel less lonely, but you’ll also have the chance to meet up with these same guys in your favorite cities, too.

A pretty small but cool change, I have to say.

11. Change Follower Outfits

This is a simple mod that allows you to edit your follower’s inventories while they follow you around.

If you dismiss them, well, they’ll keep the stuff that you gave them.

Yes you’ve read my mind: walking storage containers!

10. Diverse Guards of Skyrim

Have you ever noticed how the same group of dudes seem to be the only guards in the entire game?

Even in SSE, most of the guards in the game look extremely similar.

This can be very bad for immersion’s sake. So I thought this would be a great mod to add onto this list.

With this installed you’ll notice that the game is populated by many more female guards, guards of different races, and more.

Make Skyrim feel more alive and less like a racially-segregated place.

9. Decent Women

Now this mod changes the way every woman in the game looks, turning them into much more attractive people than what they look like in the base game. Five feet apart book theme.

It does remove some of that gritty feeling… but do we always want that? Even on the 10th playthrough?

I have to say that I do not notice any difference on the Khajit, Argonian, and Ogre women. So I’m assuming the dude who created this must have a kink somewhere!

Jokes aside, it’s a fantastic mod if you’re tired of looking at the same faces every time you play the game.

8. Appropriately Attired Jarls

Jarls should dress like actual jarls, and not like some random dude who’s sitting atop a throne.

Well this mod changes the outfit of the Jarls (be it the Jarls reigning at the start of the game, or the ones that take over later) and makes them look much more royal.

And the jarls staff people also gets new clothing, too.

Look how fancy they’re dressed now! So cool.

7. NPC Clothes Changes and Maintainer

I already covered mods that allow you to tweak the outfits of your followers… but this one takes it to the next level.

It allows you to tweak the outfit of every single NPC in the game.

Not only that, but they’ll always keep the stuff that you give them, regardless of their dress codes.

You can make guards wear dresses if you want. Which makes them look more like cheap man-whores than actual guards (is there any difference, though?).

Tweak the outfits of whoever you want and have fun for days while doing so! Cyber exploration laboratory experiments solutions manual 11th.

6. Consistent Older People

This amazing mod takes aging to the next level by actually making the skin of older people look like the actual skin of… well, older people.

In Skyrim, most of the old people in the game simply have an old face. But their bodies look exactly the same.

Not too realistic, eh? This mod changes that and makes the body of all old characters look like the actual body of an old person.

A bit eerie at first, but a good mod nonetheless – especially after you get used to the new digs.

5. Populated Cities

This is the mod to get if you’ve had enough of all cities in the game feeling equally dead.

There seems to be no one around when you walk around a city in Skyrim. And the problem gets crazier if you’ve been playing the game for a while.

The same people are always in the same spots, doing the same things, and saying the same garbage. What kinda life are they living over there?

Populated Cities adds a bunch of new random (and killable) NPCs. They interact with their surroundings, walk around, and make cities feel more like actual cities instead of giant rocky graveyards.

An awesome mod if you’re into immersion, and one that will make the game feel truly fresh.

4. Inconsequential NPCs

Continuing the trend of immersion, this mod makes it so many new NPC characters get added to the game.

All of which have new interactions that they can take with one another.

These interactions are fully voiced by the creaotrs of the mod, which should keep you on the edge of your seat while playing. I mean it’s not an end-all be-all mod… but imagine adding this in with some others, trying to hear what all of these folks are saying.

These NPCs are inconsequential too. Which means that they’re all fully killable and play no part other than adding a new feeling to the game.

Best skyrim armor mods reddit

A cool mod nonetheless!

3. Organized Bandits in Skyrim

Organized Bandits makes all bandits in the game feel truly unique.

In fact, the mod adds a staggering 57 new bandit types, and over 2500 new bandits in total.

If you’re tired of having the same dudes coming at you time and time again, this one will help you enjoy being attacked.

2. Interesting NPCs

I’ve always been a sucker for complex mods that seem like they’d be incredibly difficult to create.

So I can’t help but add this one here, and trust me it’s detailed.

Interesting NPCs adds over 250 new NPCs, all of which are fully voiced by great voice actors.

And 25 of them are new followers that you can get, too.

There’s also a good number of these that are marriable characters.

Overall a seriously brilliant mod that’s worth trying at least once.

1. Amazing Follower Tweaks

We all know that followers are the ultimate type of NPC that we love to edit.

Given how they follow us around during the entire game, they’re the folks we see quite often.

And this mod allows you to truly make edits into every follower. And these edits go deep my friends.

This is, by far, the best follower NPC mod that I’ve ever tried out.

Absolutely give it a go.
