Indeed, if those work clothes are heavy armour and, especially, closed-face helms, those would be equally out of place. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />While that's all true, there's no easy way for the image to convey that it's the case. (Except perhaps in the case where the image is captioned to say so, or if it's right beside text talking about that very spell/item/whatever - which we can assume probably won't be the norm.)So it's probably best if the art is shown assuming characters aren't using endure elements spells, or glamoured armour, or similar - just as the viewer will likewise assume that the knight in shining armour isn't a polymorphed demon lord/half-flumph.</blockquote>
