That said, it's worth noting that Dark Mages of both genders in Awakening are mostly covered; it just so happens that most of what they wear is basically the body-stocking equivalent of pantyhose (think of it as a cloth version of sunglasses). Hell, even Tharja technically only has her face, hands, and parts of her upper chest bare (it's just that what she does wear is mostly translucent).

Made sense in that- as above mentions- they're covered up; no direct exposure to sunlight and also having some insulating layer over their skin.
Making them a translucent bodystocking allowed them to make it fanservice/stripperiffic as well.
Whether a bodystocking would actually be good in a desert- well- I'm not gonna be testing those conditions anytime soon- so I wouldn't know.

Well, regular mages still dressed relatively sensibly in Awakening (see Miriel and Laurent). I think Kozaki's idea was that Dark Mages came from a more "feral" and "uncivilized" tradition than the relatively more "scholarly" regular mage (sort of a "Celtic druids vs. Isaac Newton's brand of occultism" type of thing).
In Fates, he seems to have extended that idea to all magic classes who aren't either Nohrian horsemen or related to Hoshido's version of Shintoism.

^ Thing is, though, that wasn't Kozaki's idea. It was the art director's. Kozaki was just told what to draw. Plain and simple. Had Kozaki been the art director for both Awakening and Fates, character designs would most assuredly be different.
