A regular plural that carries every meaning of the singular, so context decides what is being counted. Several outfits in a shop window are sets of clothing. Rival outfits bidding on a contract are firms, a casual usage best kept out of formal writing. Outfits in an army or a league are units and teams. Statisticians have their own, rarer use: an outlier-sensitive fit.
