Hi Yukie, here's my edit of how I suggest you do what you had envisioned.
The scarf looked way to close in color to the shirt, so I just assumed it was the shirt. Make it another color, I just did greenish, but at this resolution it almost looks like the hair, so maybe a nice bright red? Don't listen to me on color, I'm terrible at it.
To separate the shirt from the jacket I removed one of the shirt pixels, so it's clear they're on a different level. As well I gave a popped collar to the jacket so it doesn't seem like it's just an overshirt.
I added some contrast to the skirt's checkerboard pattern, because it looked to similar. You could probably go further with it, maybe even adding in some color so it will look very different from the jacket. Or change the jacket color, maybe?
The cyborg arm is a tough one. I gave her hand a skin colored pixel and just added one darker pixel where her cyborg elbow should be. Maybe you can make her human arm sleeveless to give it a bigger contrast. If you don't want to make her arm sleeveless, then I suggest going with a new color as it's too close to the cyborg arm.
I hope that helps!
