You appeal to people who agree with it, and I think players themselves have a degree of responsibility to research and test out if they fit into a guild. Of course you should try to be accommodating to new recruits, but there are limits. It's much better, in my eyes, to let people part ways without hard feelings over waiting for it to build up and cause a trainwreck of drama due to differing opinions.Â
Personally I do not consider IC gearchanges-on-the-quick-go to be a thing. If anything it usually makes me assume that the person is OOC. I wouldn't accept something like it as canon unless it was really well reasoned, and also something that isn't used just because they want to wear a different dress half way through a social event. It could be canon lore, but it's an OP move to have your character running around with, due to it's potential use in combat situations. It takes two emotes and a little walk away for a minute or three to get away with changing your outfit, and there's many creative ways for it to be carried around or stored conveniently nearby that doesn't involve "Hey lets put it into a pocket of magical air."
^ All of this. I don't consider it to be IC/canon, just a standard game mechanic. If you can find a way to explain it IC, it still amounts to little more than an asspull imo, and at best it's useless (quickchanging just to change outfits when a character could just walk off screen and change clothes) and at worst it's OP (quickchanging into armor when attacked). Either way, if that's your FC's rules and if the majority of your FC is on board with it, then this person needs to respect the guidelines you've established.
