Perhaps to put it differently, you can always evaluate between designs comparatively at least. One design can be said to communicate a character better than a different design. In that sense, since Harley is supposed to be a Harlequin, you would expect that fact to be communicated (just like Joker should communicate that he is a clown/jester). The more clearly these truths are communicated, the better the design.

As an aside though, if you subscribe to a realist view rather than a nominalist/conceptualist view, then art does become an objective field. The Harley costume here would qualify under such a realist analysis as objectively ugly. But, that is outside of the scope of a toy forum for sure haha.
You're not making sense. There's few Joker costumes that make him out to be a clown or jester. He just wears a purple suit in most of his incarnations.

Sorry you just can't accept that people like the costume. It doesn't have to literally look like a harlequin.

Phicen body?

*Checks Google*

So they're naked porno-style bodies? Eeew, you're gross too.
Phicen is the old name of TBLeague who makes seamless bodies. Sideshow even uses them for their Wonder Woman and Court of the Dead figures.
