How has your daily dress changed due to the pandemic?

[entremet]

I got a whole a bunch of those drawstring dressy style pants. My office was always casual so I did jeans, but jeans aren't as comfy as these.

This is an example:

The Air Chino Drawstring Pant

This is summer's easiest pant. Our Air Chino lightweight 4.2 oz cotton poplin has ample 4% stretch that really moves. We paired that fabric with casual pull-on styling and a drawstring waistband for belt-free comfort.

I also got a couple of long sleeve henleys. I need to be on camera based on my job for Zoom calls, but my usual polos and collared shirt seemed overkill, especially WFH. I would stand out compared to peers and clients.

But basically more athleisure since it's so comfy and more cross functional. I can't remember the last time I bought a pair of chinos, much less wore them.

 

[Techno]

I bought more pyjamas.

 

[nel e nel]

Please tell me you do NOT tuck in your shirts with those pants.

 

[Deleted member 6173]

None of my work clothes from March fit anymore. Now I just wear raggedy clothes around the house.

 

[mopinks]

I'm just as nude as I've ever been

 

[Deleted member 21709]

Pants?

 

[Mona]

same shit

 

[sphagnum]

It hasn't.

 

[LinkStrikesBack]

It didn't. I don't have enough clothes to change my behaviour from slightly smarter shirts and slacks on weekdays and poloshirt and Jeans on weekends anyway. Can't get more either because I don't want to just throw away a bunch of clothes when I finish up my work contract because things wouldn't fit in my suitcase.

 

[jph139]

I no longer am obligated to wear clothes, which has reduced my laundry churn significantly.

No. LMAO. Yeah, weird styling on that model.

 

[Walter White Walker]

I was already working from home, so nope.

 

[GK86]

I bought more pj pants.

 

[Deleted member 31817]

I haven't worn chinos, any shirt with buttons or anything other than sneakers/slippers since mid March lol

 

[MrCibb]

Yep. Not exactly the same but similar stuff, I got way more joggers and shorts to just lounge around the house in. Since rather than just the odd few lazy week-ends it's lazy weeks now.

 

[bgbball31]

I am in athletic shorts and athletic t-shirts pretty much all day every day. Comfortable? Yes. Ignoring 99% of the rest of my wardrobe I spent money on and enjoy wearing? Also yes.

 

[John Rabbit]

Jeans with button-ups and boots became shorts with button-ups and bare feet.

I've worn socks and shoes maybe...10 times since quarantine started.

 

[Tochtli79]

I'm in my pyjamas like 90% of the time, which sucks, but I'm also like why get dressed up and add to the laundry pile just to sit at home. Basically only get changed to work out, get groceries, or go for walks.

 

[skeezx]

baggier clothes... pretty ashamed of the weight i've gained though its nothing egregious. not even weight gain just my overall "shape" is schlumpy

 

[Deleted member 13328]

Nothing, still wearing work clothes since I can't work from home.

 

[aett]

I never feel quite right wearing my PJ pants all day, even on weekends, so I just change into shorts or jeans depending on whether or not I'm going out in public that day.

My office's dress code was very lax (t-shirt/jeans was allowed) but our managers strongly "encouraged" office casual (buttoned up shirt/slacks) simply because many of my coworkers would have occasional meetings with people outside our office, and management wanted to give a sense of professionalism. However, my job never did anything outside of the office, but I still did the office casual thing for several years. I finally decided to just switch to a t-shirt with an unbuttoned shirt over it and jeans, but only did it for three months before we got sent home because of COVID anyway.

Edit:

Ah, yeah, I didn't think about that. Yeah, I've been overweight for a while, so I had shirts that fit me for work, and I had much baggier shirts just for lounging around comfortably at home. I've pretty much only been wearing the baggier shirts for the last several months because I've put on extra weight.

 

[Frankie Williamson]

I'm wearing boxer briefs and a t-shirt. Yesterday I wore boxer briefs and a t-shirt. Tomorrow I'm going to wear boxer briefs and a t-shirt.

 

[Deleted member 279]

0 effort. My sweats are worn out from being washed so much

 

[SilverArrow20XX]

My work dropped the strict-ish work clothes rule and allowed us to wear jeans and T-shirts, and then (so far) hasn't made us go back.

 

[Auron Kale]

Been working since mid-May but we wear a uniform (black shirt & black work pants). On my off days, been opting to wear more comfortable joggers over my jeans.

 

[Aurongel]

I wear polyester short shorts and fitness shirts from Underarmour every day. It's comfy and I change them after except using in them.

 

[eyeball_kid]

I thought the title said "stress", not "dress", so when I read the OP I thought those drawstring chinos were some kind of coping therapy.

My work-hours dress hasn't changed much, but I make more a point of dressing up when I go out, even just for coffee, just to feel some sense of normalcy.

 

[Deleted member 16516]

Same. Smart casual, with the occasional three piece suit.

 

[Ultima_5]

Jeans and t shirts.
Nice not having to wear work clothes anymore. I️ do way less laundry now.

 

[Pau]

What are bras?

My camera set up doesn't show my chest so I can get away with it.

 

[RedStep]

In the summer, shorts (t-shirt optional, it gets hot here). In the winter, pajama pants and a shirt.

 

[nihilence]

I'm wfh, but still dress up a little bit. Before my shift I drop the kids off at daycare, so I have to be dressed. Then I just stay in the jeans until I pick them up later.

Our training also suggested: dress right, work right.

I understand the mentality. Same boat as look good, feel good.

 

[Richiek]

I haven't worn a dress shirt ever since the pandemic began. Been wearing sweatpants alot more.

 

[MIMIC]

Well now that I'm working from home, I haven't worn any formal wear for a while. I'm a lawyer and I did have to wear a suit for a Zoom deposition a few months ago.

I typically get up, start work with whatever I have on, and throw on something decent for my daily meeting (just a decent looking shirt...I keep the shorts on).

 

[angelgrievous]

I can no longer wear pants, hell, I can't wear anything other than 3" inseam running shorts🤷🏻‍♀️
Skies out thighs out!

 

[PickledCucumber]

I've only worn shoes 2 times since the pandemic started. I wear soft slippers or wannabe crocs now.

The last time I wore shoes I had a hard time walking with them and kept tripping every few seconds. It was totally weird.

Aside from that, I usually just wear PJs, basketball shorts, or sweat pants.

 

[Ouroboros]

Really lazy. Jeans and hoodies right now. Where I work they are letting us dress down every day so no more dress pants, tucked in shirts and ties.
Though I do like dressing up, I do it every so often anyway this year.

 

[rckvla]

Just wearing some boxers and some shirt (sometimes tank tops) all the time.

 

[Deleted member 33533]

 

[LProtagonist]

Like no teachers at school are wearing a shirt and tie because we only have a handful of kids actually in school every day and we've stopped caring. I've been wearing jeans but... I gotta look into these drawstring pants.

 

[Azubah]

I work from home but still get dressed because it's a good routine to have.

 

[thesoapster]

My work week attire was business casual. Now I wear basically anything I feel like (often pajama pants and some old shirt). Non-work attire is largely unchanged.

 

[dubc]

I wear jeans like I did at work, but usually with a t-shirt or hoodie instead of a button up tucked in.

 

[Davidion]

What are clothes, REALLY?

 

[Powdered Egg]

I haven't worn a suit in almost a year and it feels liberating. I'm dressed like a sack of potatoes 6 days out of the week.

 

[RBH]

Our service in the hospital now allows us to wear scrubs on a daily basis instead of wearing a buttoned down shirt and pants like we used to do pre-pandemic.

Don't see us ever going back, thankfully.

One of the very few silver linings of this pandemic.

 

[Chopchop]

I don't remember the last time I wore my work stuff.

 

[Many]

I'm not using sweaters or any winter clothes becasue I'm not going out early in the morning or late night

 

[HiLife]

It went from loungewear (sweats and hoodie) during the night to loungewear everyday.

It's not like I can exactly dress up anymore, and I ain't doing it just to go to Walmart to get some groceries.

 

[Deleted member 10629]

I've looked like a slob every day since March.
