Clothing?? Why would he wear only one piece of clothing, barely covering his frog body, in the same color as his skin?

Kermit’s froghood baffles me, mainly due to the neck frill. I was down a Muppet history rabbit hole recently and realized that he was originally just named “Kermit”, and didn’t become “Kermit the Frog” for some years. So he was probably designed as a frill-necked lizard of some kind and got retconned into a frog. Mystery solved, right? Well no, because then I realized he got the frill the same time they started calling him a frog.
I was so distraught I turned to Muppet Wiki, which it turns out has an entire section on his collar. It’s an article of clothing. 😐

To be fair many dogs and cats dress the same way.

In episode 402 of The Muppet Show, the Prairie Dogs steal Kermit’s collar and he laments that he feels naked without it.
Per the wiki. Surely that explains everything.

He’s a frog, they breathe through their skin.
