Is there any way to stop villagers from wearing custom designs permanently?

Hello everyone. I hope you all are hanging in there and having a good day.

So, I have had this game since launch and this still bothers me. I haven't looked into it much but know it's just becoming an issue, seeing my villagers running around in customs I didn't want them to wear. I was wondering if these clothes can be removed from the Able Sisters permanently or if there was a way to remove the clothes from the villagers inventory permanently?

I tried talking with Isabell and reported the way they dress numerous amounts of times but no matter what I did, they keep on wearing the same custom design anyways. I went to see if I can remove it from the Able Sister's shop but they won't allow just a plain hanging wall. I also don't want to replace the customs with another custom as well, the villagers will only start wearing that now. It seems they don't really give you a choice though. Is there nothing to stop this?

I'm thinking that this point, if there is no way to solve this, then I'm just going to have to make an design that everybody can wear universally as I feel I ran out of options to solve for this dilemma. Is anybody else having this issue with their villagers? If so, is it something that you feel is annoying enough for you at times when you see villagers wear a custom design?

i hate when the villagers wearing custom designs at Able Sister's shop, i change all the clothes custom designs to hats so they will only wears hats but i can't find a way for them to stop using the custom design too... :C
 
unfortunately there’s nothing you can do. I’m also stuck with villagers wearing custom designs and I get annoyed everytime I see them wearing one. I ended up displaying a plain black design so it doesn’t bug me too much to see them wearing it. I can pretend it is their workout clothes since it looks like they are wearing a black tank top.
 
I still have the default designs in Ables for precisely this reason. There's no control over who wears what. It would have been awesome to be able to designate certain designs to certain villagers, but oh well.

I think your best bet is probably to choose a nice seasonal design or something thematic to your island that you can live with and enjoy seeing them wearing. Like sweaters for winter, summery tank tops for summer, etc. There's some really nice custom designs out there.

Also, if you see villagers wearing a custom design, you can complain to Isabelle about their clothes, but I don't think it's a permanent solution.
 
It does bother me when they wear the custom designs. I really do wish they wouldn’t wear them. I have noticed since the update my villages have been using the custom designs more. They rarely used them before the update,
 
I have also had the game since launch and none of my villagers have ever worn a custom design from the shop. I actually forgot they exist lol
 
Since I noticed the villagers do not wear the default designs on display, I have just never bothered to put up anything.

Still a small step up from New Leaf though where if you didn't change them all fast enough to something you liked, all your villagers would be stuck wearing the generic designs made by Someone from Anytown and then it'd be all they talk about lol. It's a very oblique fix in how they clearly did something, but it still misses the point of why people complained, though. "They still get stuck wearing custom designs permanently... but at least it's not the preset ones :D"
