I'll also do the "duck out of sight to get changed" thing. As far as keeping multiple gear sets handy... I just kind of hand wave a Mary Poppins' carpet bag or chocobo saddle bags.
For being able to swap from using a staff to an axe... a tunic and pants or whatever won't impede my being able to swap weapons IC, so I don't see why wearing say bard dungeon gear means I can't pick up a sword if someone rushes me. OOC I would have to change gear just because the game demands it. I just cover it by saying I've not changed clothes and my RP partners need to suspend disbelief for a moment (or, depending on situation, I'll ask that they retcon the new gearset). I think everyone I've rped with does something similar.
If you mean just... is there anything in quest text about quickchanging gear like some anime hero, I don't think so, at least not that I've seen. At this point it sounds more like a problem in dealing with a new member that won't play along with the rest of the group. >.>;
