How it works

The object 服(ふく) (clothes) comes first, marked by を (object), then the verb. 着替える(きがえる) (to change clothes) appears in its て (te-form) shape 着替えて(きがえて) (changing) — on its own the te-form leaves things hanging, so it reads like a step in a sequence (“change your clothes, and…”) rather than a finished sentence.
