Mortimer looks fine, but I'm iffy on his new outfit. Bella looks pretty, but I hate the hair and outfit they gave her. She looks so little like her usual self. At least the old look screamed classic Bella Goth.
Cassandra's closer to her Sims 1/2 look, but it's still quite off. Her skin tone doesn't match her old look, her ponytails are even less similar to what they looked like, and her classes are less nerdy. And the new sweater seems like a random change, since it doesn't really say much about her character. It's just a change for the sake of it.
Alexander's outfit and hair are bad and don't suit the family aesthetic as well as his old look. I'm also against darkening his skin. I know mixed race kids tend to be darker/have skin that's more of a mix of their parents, but it's not accurate to his old appearances. And mixed race kids can take after one parent, it's pretty normal. (It's pretty common in my family, actually. My dad's dark and his brother is pale. Me and my siblings have a whole range going on.) It's part of a bigger problem I have with portrayals of biracial kids in media, but I'd rather not get into that on a video game forum right now.
I know they don't have to be like their old selves, but it's pretty disappointing.
