Dress for Luxurious Success: The Complete Guide to Gearing Your Bank Alt

The leveling dust has settled, you’ve begun to make gold again--it's the perfect time to spruce up your bank alt! Sure, you could go running around in starting zone gear, but it’s much more fun to play the Auction House in style. Show up for work dressed for luxurious success. From fishing rewards to wine glasses, we’ve highlighted the best of the offbeat items your low-level bank alt can equip. Whether you’re a veteran banker putting
Viznik Raffafizz
to shame or a new player with an empty bank, retire your overdone
Giacca da Smoking
and let everyone know that your bank alt appreciates the finer side of Azeroth.
Check out the coolest items for each slot, holiday rewards, special armor vendors, and some sample outfits after the break!
For the purpose of this guide, we’ll assume your bank alt is level 10 in order to show up on the Armory (since half the fun in rolling a bank alt is the mix of anonymity and showing off). We’ll also mostly focus on cloth items since any class can equip them. We won't highlight these items for every slot because there are so many, but in general, creating level 1s with the sole purpose to mail unique starter-zone gear to your bank alt is a great fashion resource.

Items by Slot
Head
View your world through luxury-tinted shades. Finding a special helm will make your bank alt stand out, as helms for low-level toons are generally uncommon. Here are a few of our favorite options:
Maschera da Bandito degli Elfi del Sangue
, an imperial mask, drops from
Bandito Elfo del Sangue
, a spy hidden on
Isola Brumazzurra
. (Horde, don’t be discouraged—he’s hostile to you as well.) He has roughly a 20% chance to drop the mask, but respawns almost instantly.
Monocolo da Gentiluomo
is obtained from
Sacca di Attrezzature da Pesca
, a reward for completing any of the Shattrath fishing dailies, which require lvl 70. While it’s roughly a 1% chance from the
Bag of Fishing Treasures
, these fishing dailies can also give you some other fun vanity gear, such as
Fedora Rovinato
. However, if you’re impatient to look sophisticated, consider getting either
Monocolo di Rubino dell'Orefice
,
Monocolo di Zaffiro dell'Orefice
, or
Monocolo d'Ambra dell'Orefice
from your favorite Jewelcrafter.
Another sophisticated option is
Cappello di Ser Walden
, but it can only be obtained by worgen in their starting zone. However, the hat remains if you race-change. Hopefully,
Cilindro d'Alta Società
will be implemented one day for the rest of us.
Demonstrate your knowledge of the arcane by scheduling a visit to the haberdasher with
Chameli Banaphash
. Decide between
Turbante Viola
and
Cappello Viola
.
Occhiali di Rubino
is the ultimate luxury helm for your bank alt. Formerly sold by
Haris Pilton
in Shattrath, this periodically resurfaces on the AH for a hefty amount. Grab one to show everyone how wealthy you are. If you want the cheap knockoff, have an engineer make either
Occhiali da Giovane Ingegnere Rampante
for bonus flavor text or
Occhiali d'Ombra
,
Occhiali della Tigre Volante
, or
Occhiali con Lenti Verdi
for the perfect tint. Unfortunately,
Occhiali da Sole con Strass
were never put into the game for extra blingee.
While
Burgy Cuornero
may be a level 81 dancing ghost and pirate, his spoils,
Burgy Blackheart's Handsome Hat
, can be looted by everyone in the party—no matter the level. Use your connections to get a first-class summon to Vash’jir when a good friend or associate spots the mob. This item turns you into a spectral pirate gnome. If you prefer fishing to swimming, try your luck at the
in the hopes of getting
Pesce Angelo di Keefer
to redeem into
Cappello da Pesca Portafortuna
.
New to 4.1 is the
Corona Annerita
, a BoE reward for completing
Una ricompensa splendente
.
Amulets
Amulets aren’t visible on a character, but a well-chosen amulet is a mark of a discerning toon. While Jewelcrafters can make several necks that are great for PvP twinks, they don’t have much personality.
Griftah
solves all your needs. Want to be better, stronger, faster?
Griftah
has the perfect tikbalang just for you, from
Sapone con Filo
to
Talismano del Rintracciamento del Vero Tesoro
.
Collana di Denti di Alligatore
is found in
Sacca di Oggetti Brillanti
, a reward from the Cataclysm fishing dailies. Originally just a trash item, it’s been changed recently to be equippable.
A tip from commenter Yuoflim: make your voice heard with
Modulatore d'Amplificazione Vocale
, made by engineers. It’s both stylish and practical!
Collana d'Argento Annerita
has a 20% chance to be looted from
Loculo Dissacrato
near
Taumaturgo Zum'rah
, the 3rd boss in
Zul'farrak
. Perfect if your bank alt is an ‘antique dealer’ specializing in legacy items.
Medaglione della Ricezione dei Cultisti del Crepuscolo
is an item used to summon Elemental Dukes in Silithus, which was part of an elaborate summoning system culminating in bosses that dropped raid-quality epics.
New to 4.1 is
Collana d'Oro
, a reward from
A Shiny Reward
.
Shoulder
Unfortunately, you need to be at least level 15 to equip any pair of shoulders besides the BoAs. But let’s face it, many low-level shoulder models are uninspiring, unlike the epic models that keep growing larger and larger each tier.
One exception is
Coprispalle dei Fuochi di Mezza Estate
, a reward from the
Fuochi di Mezza Estate
. Turning in 100
Fiore Bruciante
nets you this flamboyant pair of shoulders.
Cloaks
Better off hidden. You’re best off using a BoA cape purchased from your main’s guild to show that your bank alt has wealthy benefactors.
Chest
Finding the perfect chestpiece is the most important part of dressing your bank alt. You’re only limited by your imagination and WoW’s required level on items! With the right accessories, even a
Tonaca Consumata
can look amazing, but we’re going to focus on the items that take some effort to acquire.
Veste da Camera Nera di Telardente
is the luxury robe of Cataclysm. Costing a BoP
Globo del Caos
to craft, befriend a tailor that enjoys heroics. It’s both scandalizing and classy at once. Mix and match with different shirts to change the look. Tailors can create several other BoE robes:
Vestito Semplice Nero
,
Abito di Lana Bianco
,
Abito Nuziale Bianco
, and
Vestito Semplice
.
Vesti di Seta Draenei
are sold by
Hakmud di Argus
, a Traveling Trader that rides around on
Redini del Mammut del Viaggiatore della Tundra
. If you see someone mounted up, run over and buy it from him. Don’t tease
Modoru
like
Sentinella Dolcevera
does; his grandmother’s robes are quite lovely.
There are several robes with unique models that drop from specific mobs in the starting zones—try collecting them all! They are
Vesti Viola
,
Tonaca di Tela di Ragno
,
Tonaca Nevosa
,
Vesti dell'Iniziato Scarlatto
, and
Tonaca da Mago Leggera
. There's reports that some are unavailable after Cataclysm, so play the AH just to be safe. We’ll include
Tonaca del Mago di Dalaran
as an honorary robe, even though it requires level 13, because it looks so awesome.
Veste dell'Infermiera di Dalaran
has a similar purple tint.
By far the rarest chestpiece to acquire is the
Dangui Tradizionale Formale
sold by
Geenia Solefosco
in Moonglade. It’s rumored that it respawns every two months. In the meantime, you might get luckier with her other limited-supply robes:
Hanbok da Matrimonio Verde
and
Hanbok Tradizionale Rosso
.
Don’t want a robe? Consider one of the harnesses sold by
Kiro
or
Sura Manto Selvaggio
, or
Veste di Lino Marrone
and
Bolero da Mariachi
from tailoring.
Shirts
Shirts deserve their own post, but here’s a brief overview of the best tailoring and vendor picks.
Karandonna
, a stylish tribute NPC to Donna Karan, sells filigreed doublets and martial shirts in a variety of colors. They’re a bit pricey, but that’s the cost of exclusivity.
Another vendor in Dalaran,
Angelique Butler
, sells
Bendaggio Macchiato di Antisettico
and
Bendaggi per Ferite
in the First-Aid building.
Broxel Morsadoro
, the souvenir vendor at the Argent Tournament, sells shirts commemorating each participating race.
Lisbeth Schneider
is the only vendor in the game who sells
Canotta Gialla
and
Camicia Nera Stilosa
. Her last name means tailor in German.
Tailors are an excellent resource—they can make shirts in practically every color and style.
Camicia di Seta Viola Sfarzosa
, the color of epics, is from one of the rarest patterns in the game. There’s a series of
Workman
and
Lumberjack
shirts from uncommon Northrend patterns.
There’s also several shirts that are rare drops from mobs—
Canotta da Marinaio
is one BoE that anyone cap equip.
Tabards
Tabards tend to spoil the effect of your carefully-planned outfit. Besides, your main wears enough tabards in heroics. However, there are a few interesting options.
Insegna del Soldato
/
Insegna della Sentinella
only cost 50 honor to purchase and
Colori del Cavaliere
/
Insegna della Guardia di Pietra
costs 100 honor. As a level 10, you can queue up for Battlegrounds to earn honor.
Insegna degli Alargentea
/
Insegna da Battaglia dei Cantaguerra
from Warsong Gulch and
Insegna da Battaglia dei Piccatonante
/
Insegna da Battaglia dei Lupi Bianchi
from Alterac Valley can be purchased with 2,000+ honor and have no rep requirement. In the past, honor on alts was easy to acquire with
Encomio di Lungoinverno
. However, with those removed, these tabards will take longer to acquire as they cost a good deal more than they used to.
Insegna dell'Esploratore
can easily be acquired by flying on a friend’s
Razzo da Viaggio X-53
around Northrend.
Tabards such as
Insegna di Orgrimmar
are also available from Quartermasters in capital cities with no rep requirement.
If your bank alt is a mage, they can equip the
Insegna del Kirin Tor
from Dalaran since all mages start off friendly with the Kirin Tor.
Wrist
Bracers should be discreet and coordinating with your fabulous shirt or robe. Put
Potenza Magica
on your bracers for absurdity.
Gemelli d'Argento Antichi
are another rare reward from the
Bag of Fishing Treasures
. By far the best option for a sophisticated alt.
Nastri Aborigeni
are the rarest part of the
Aboriginal
set, for a vibrant theme.
Bracciali Fantasmatici
is a drop from a Tirisfal rare mob,
Spirito Tormentato
.
New to 4.1 are
Braccialetti Borchiati con Gemme
from
A Shiny Reward
. These bracers are gold with green gems, very distinctive!
Hands
You aren’t a poor freezing clerk like Bob Cratchitt—ditch the gloves.
Guanti Ricoperti di Raso
sound luxurious, but instead show off your rings and bracelets.
Waist
While belts can be equally challenging to track down, they don’t look visually exciting. It’s not mandatory for your bank alt, but here’s some options if you must sacrifice fashion for completion.
Cintura di Stoffa Lacera
and
Cintura Intrecciata
are only sold by Horde vendors, so Alliance players may find it whimsical.
The Goblin starting zone features several vendors that sell unique items (in name, although perhaps not in looks).
Cintura di Stoffa Fradicia
and
Cintura di Cuoio Fradicio
are exclusively sold by
Sally "Recuperatrice" Svitasabbia
.
Chawg
sells
Cintura Lavorata Recuperata
.
Pants
If you’re wearing a robe, the style of your pants is unimportant. However, if you opted for a more modern shirt, the style of your pants (or kilt!) is very important.
Pantaloni di Lino Semplici
or
Calzoni di Solliden
make good blue jeans for a casual Friday look.
Pantaloni da Mariachi
or
Pantaloni da Smoking
from
Sartoria
give a more formal appearance.
A tip from commenter TKitch:
Calzoncini di Ogre Lacerati
may look like a Tarzan-esque loincloth, but it’s incredibly rare currently. It was looted from
as part of the Horde-only quest
Gordunni Cobalt
. Unfortunately, that quest is no longer around in Cataclysm, so watch the AH.
This guide mostly focuses on cloth, but
Kilt Primitivo
and
Kilt Primitivo
are striking leather kilts from Horde shaman starting-zone gear that look great with a harness.
Kilt Semplice
is a versatile skirt from
Tailoring
that matches most any shirt.
Feet
Others may only see your toes peep out from under a robe, but it’s the effort that counts.
Several races have stylish boots as starter gear, such as
Stivali da Recluta
, the default boots for several warrior races. Other boots can be enchanted with
Velocità Minore
which will shave off seconds of running!
A perennial favorite is
Grancalzari Lavorati ai Ferri
, available from select merchants.
Scarpe da Completo
are also an elegant alternative.
The truly dedicated will try to win the
La gara di pesca dei Kalu'ak
and obtain
Stivali della Baia
, boots with a built-in hearth to Booty Bay. Make sure you skill up your fishing first!
As a bonus, go sit down next to
Sheddle Splendiluce
, the Dalaran cobbler. He’ll shine your shoes and buff you for the next hour with
Scarpe Lucide
, making your feet sparkle.
Rings
You need to show off your bling. Discreetly, as most rings have no visible effect upon your character. But you still need to flaunt it under the radar. Oh, and whatever you do, don’t buy
Anello con Zircone Cubico
and pretend it’s a
Anello con Sigillo d'Elementio da Nobile
--everyone will know the difference.
An easy bling fix comes from
Gappy Dentegrigio
, self-titled <Bling Merchant>. He sells the classic
Diamante Solitario Difettoso
, the less romantic
Anello con Diamante Minuscolo
, the unromantic
Cubic Zirconia Ring
, the apologetic
Vera d'Argento di Bulgary
, the flashy
Solitario
, and apt
Anello dell'Umore
poking fun at xp color bars. Several other vendors stock these rings if Gappy won’t sell you bling.
To match your
Tarnished Silver Necklace
, get a
Anello d'Argento Annerito
from
Cassa di Carne
, a reward for completing any of the Shattrath cooking dailies.
Curse yourself by equipping
L'Unico Anello
, a very rare catch from fishing. Or take a traditional sentimental route with
Fede Nuziale Dorata
, once again found in the
Bag of Fishing Treasures
from the Shattrath dailies.
Anello del Comando dei Cultisti del Crepuscolo
only works for DK bank alts, but it's a very rare item from
Signore del Crepuscolo Everun
, a rare mob in Silithus. Equipping this item allows you to bypass many of the elaborate steps in summoning lvl 60 raid bosses. However, the gear is obsolete, so you might as well keep it instead.
But the true mark of a bank alt connoisseur is found in the insanely expensive and limited wares of
Haris Pilton
.
Vera d'Eternio Dorata
costs 3000g and shows your eternal love for luxury. Or buy her two
Anellino con Zaffiro
s for a more youthful look. The most dedicated bank alt won’t think twice before buying the
Noble’s Elementium Signet
—it’s the only ring in the game currently that sparkles, plus with the right reputation, you can buy it from
Qixdi Puntaspilli
in Booty Bay for a discount, skipping Haris and her rude ghost friend
Ricole Nichie
. In 4.1, there is another visible ring option, but it's BoP and you need to be 85 to complete
A Shiny Reward
:
Black Ice
.
Trinkets
Trinkets are few, but obtaining any of these will demonstrate your bank alt is dedicated.
By studying
Ingegneria
on the side, you’ll learn how to thwart mages and charm mechanicals in style.
Tecno-Ricostituente Minore
is learned from a schematic sold by
Snervamolle
in Ratchet.
Controllo Universale Gnomesco
is learned from a schematic dropped by
Mekgeniere Termospin
and also sold by
Betakix Ruotastretta
and
Jinky Twizzlefixxit
.
A truly lucky fishing aficionado can use
Amo del Maestro Pescatore
, the ultimate reward from the
Stranglethorn Fishing Extravaganza
. Outpace the envious crowds on the street and swim to your destination. Commenter mostpop points out that since anyone can level fishing now, a bank alt should try to pick up the
Moneta di Titanio di Dalaran
and
Pantegana Gigante
.
Show off your ruthlessness by farming up
Gran Maestro delle Arene
at the Gurubashi Arena. Collect 12
Maestro delle Arene
from the
Cassa del Tesoro dell'Arena
which spawns every three hours. Pair it with
Fregio dell'Alleanza
/
Fregio dell'Orda
for the low price of 55 honor (via Windyote).
Weapon
You wouldn’t want to start a fight and risk injury, but it’s good to look prepared with the right weapon. Besides mailing starting-zone weapons between alts, consider these more unconventional choices.
Raelis Albastella
sells an assortment of common-quality weapons more interesting than your usual starter-zone fare:
Ascia Forgiata Arcana
,
Stiletto Forgiato Arcano
,
Mazza Forgiata Arcana
,
Spada Corta Forgiata Arcana
,
Bastone del Guadagno di Mana
, and
Arco Corto Rigido
. Maybe fish up
Bottiglia di Vino Rotta
from the Sludge Fen if things get ugly or get
Forcone Arrugginito
in the DK starter zone if trade chat is unruly.
Or, you can look so absurd, your enemies will be confused and flee. Use the following zone drops:
Badile del Contadino
,
Scopa del Contadino
, or
Badile del Coboldo Minatore
.
If all goes wrong, dazzle your enemies with
Bastone da Passeggio Diamantato
, a common reward from fishing dailies. While it looks like a staff, it counts as a 1-hander so any class can equip it.
Off-hand Frills
Offhands bring whimsy and humor to even the most generic outfits. There’s wine glasses, flowers, fish, and more to choose from.
Christi Stockton
sells
Bicchiere di Vino
and
Bicchiere di Vino Rosso
to complement fine dining for any occasion.
Boccale Decorato
from the
Bag of Fishing Dailies
is good for more casual meals.
Giglio di Stratholme
is available from
Sophie Aaren
, a vendor in
Epurazione di Stratholme
. Make sure to visit her before starting the event. She also sells a variety of other bouquets common to florists in capital cities such as
Felicia Gump
.
Bouquet di Rose Nere
is the most luxurious bouquet, but there’s a certain charm to
Fiori Semplici
as well.
Fiore di Lunacupa
is a carnival offhand available from
5 Buoni - Fiore di Lunacupa
, for when your bank alt feels like supporting the wild side.
Send those rare offhand fish you’ve caught on your main for
Questo non è scappato
to your bank alt. Or try fishing up
Vecchia Volpe
or
Vecchio Boccaferro
near the AH.
Stellina Blu
,
Stellina Rossa
, and
Stellina Bianca
are only available from special NPCs with the <Holiday Fireworks Vendor> tag on July 4th on US realms and September 30th on EU realms.
Like the
Ruby Shades
, there are several vanity off-hand frills no longer available from Shattrath vendors. Back when
Griftah
was briefly exiled from the Lower City for selling dubious wares, he sold
Lillà di Terokk
and
Bastoncino Pungolatore
complete with snarky flavor text. Keep an eye out for these on the AH.
Holidays
There are so many vanity items from holidays, it deserves its own section. Sadly, not all items are obtainable by low-level toons, but most are! While many max level players are tired of the same-old holidays, completing quests on a low-level toon is a fresh and challenging approach. Have a warlock friend or someone from your main's guild grouped in party for
to speed things up and instantly arrive at your location (via glyneth). As usual, mix and match for the most stylish result. Remember, if it’s hard-to-obtain, it’s good.
Celebrazione della Luna
Valadar Cantastella
sells several festive robes and pantsuits, for the cost of five
Moneta degli Avi
. To an 85, it’s not very exciting, but your level 10 will need many summons or a good deal of time spent running to collect them all.
Vestito della Celebrazione
and
Completo della Celebrazione
are the BoE option crafted by tailors.
Amore nell'Aria
Vestito Amoroso Nero
, once very rare, is now the ubiquitous dress from this holiday. It’s stunning, but along with the other rewards from
Confezione del Vestito Amoroso
and
Scatola del Completo da Sera
, perhaps too common for the discerning banker.
Festa di Nobiluova
is the perfect achievement for your bank alt. It can be completed by even a level 1, and what better title to denote generations of wealth than <the Noble>?
Vesti Primaverili
and
Vestito Elegante
are striking robes,
Orecchie da Coniglio
is silly and overdone,
Cestino per Uova
has a unique graphic, and
Fiori Primaverili
is the only bouquet of flowers that can actually be equippable as a main-hand.
Fuochi di Mezza Estate
Midsummer offers a fun holiday set: the
Mantle of the Fire Festival
as highlighted earlier,
Tunica dell'Estate
, and
Grancalzari dell'Estate
with a fun use. This set takes many
Burning Blossoms
to complete, so be diligent!
For the truly diabolic, sneak (or get summoned) into enemy cities and steal their flames to obtain the angelic
Corona dei Fuochi di Mezza Estate
from
La Ricompensa del Ladro
.
Festa della Birra
Completo della Festa della Birra
series shows you’re not just any uptight banker. Redeem
Gettone della Festa della Birra
from dailies to collect both sets.
While you’re sampling some brews, remember to pick up your stein of the year.
Occhiali Basta Indossarli per Restare Realmente Affascinati
/
Occhiali Basta Indossarli per Restare Realmente Ammaliati
give you the buff
Occhiali a Raggi X
. Everyone turns into male gnomes/tauren, some in quite revealing gear. Perhaps save these for when you aren’t calculating finances.
Veglia delle Ombre
Don’t forget to trick-or-treat every hour at your favorite inn to have a chance at getting
Elmo della Veglia
. Most of the disguises are temporary, but surely as a clever bank alt, you can create your own original costume instead of relying on a premade one.
Giorno dei Morti
This is a short and minor holiday, but
Bouquet di Calendule Arancioni
is a vibrant offhand, especially when paired with the similar
Spring Flowers
for dual-wielding bouquets.
Ringraziamento del Pellegrino
Give thanks for your yearly profits in Azeroth. Provide the catering for the holiday NPCs and receive the following apparel in return:
Cappello del Pellegrino
,
Vesti del Pellegrino
,
Vestito del Pellegrino
,
Tonaca del Pellegrino
, and
Stivali del Pellegrino
.
Vigilia di Grande Inverno
The
Abiti di Grande Inverno
is campy and festive, but may require many world kills to obtain the hats, which are only guaranteed drops from several high-level bosses. Still, what else are you going to do when the banks are closed on holiday? Consider obtaining the winter clothes that are taught by the opposite faction.
Armor Vendors
If your bank alt has decided to sponsor a particular clothing brand and refuses to wear anything else, here are some unique armor sets and NPCs with allstar offerings.
There are several common-quality sets unique to a faction.
Jainthess Thelryn
is the only vendor who sells the
Light Cloth
and
Sun Cured
sets for a traditional blood-elf look.
Sally "Salvager" Sandscrew <Slightly Damp Salvage>
sells
Waterlogged Cloth
and
Drenched Leather
sets and
Chawg
sells
Recovered Knit
,
Salvaged Chain
, and
Water-Stained Leather
sets in the Goblin areas.
Woven
,
Battered Leather
,
Dirty Leather
, and
Tattered Cloth
sets are unique to Horde clothiers in a variety of both major and minor cities. For the alliance, the
Cracked
and
Thin Cloth
sets are unique. Vendors of both factions sell the
Knitted
,
Rough Leather
, and
Light Mail Armor
sets.
Harry "Lunargenta"
found in Howling Fjord sells select blood-elf starting gear.
Thomas Yance
patrols around
Passato di Colletorto
and sells starting gear for several races.
Lucille Castleton
and other robe vendors sell distinctive robes such as
Tonaca Semplice
and
Vesti con Doppia Cucitura
.
