I think Shuri's BP costume started the trend of accessorizing BP and had the same problem. It looked great with the short cape, asymmetric fur collar, long necklace, and loose belt, but then you'd have artists drown her in extraneous straps, long capes and fur, and textures everywhere. Accessories and textures are inversely proportional in effectiveness. Sleek, textureless, and minimalist costumes "pop" with accessories while detailed, highly textured costumes are muddled and look busy with accessories. If the artist wanted to make that shoulder-piece work everything else, the pouches, daggers, spear, claws, buckles, ribbing, studs, and straps, should have been omitted. The cape could stay, but they really need to stop using pale, desaturated browns with BP.

It actually looks like something you'd expect T'Challa to put together if cut off from his resources.
