When they're dismissed, remove all their items to an external container, set their outfit back to their default (or Blades armor), remove their items again (so they aren't carrying multiple copies of their normal outfit), give them their inventory back, and force them to equip it.
It works in theory and mostly in practice, but it occassionally crashes the game, especially in difficualt-to-render areas with low FPS, or after combat and other hardware-intensive situations. It has to do with the double "RemoveAllItems()" call, and trying to render all of it, apparently.
There are also a few miscellaneous issues:
-The follower briefly appears in their undergarments while their inventory flies to Dawnstar and back. A necessary evil, I suppose -- I could move them away and then back, but at least this way they're present.
-If the follower is recruited into the Blades, they immediately change into Blades armor -- any way to check if the alias-attached "BladesChangeOutfit" script is in the "done" state?
-Sometimes the follower equips every weapon in their inventory -- bows, arrows, and weapons in both hands, if able. I don't know if it actually affects their combat prowess.
On the plus side, changes to follower equipment (smithing, enchanting) is retained, and items flagged as being part of an outfit (taken off of dead bodies or pickpocketed off someone) aren't eaten by the "SetOutfit()" call.
...How do I get rid of the demned "[size]" code?
