The turn away from formal attire at work comes as informality seems to be growing more and more acceptable. Less than 1% of Americans without a college degree wear a suit or business clothing to work usually. Of course, moving away from formal attire can be seen not just as a trend toward where white-collar society has been heading, but as a move toward blue-collar society as well. Back in 2007, over three times as many white-collar workers wore formal business attire to work. Among those making at least $50,000, it’s 3%. Only 3% of them normally wore a suit or business clothing to work in 2023.Įven among white-collar workers (i.e., those with a college degree or those with a household income of at least $100,000 a year), a mere 5% wore a suit or business clothing to the office. That is down from 14% about a decade ago. Just 3% of men said they wear business dress (such as suits) on most days. Take a look at a Gallup survey from earlier this year. While some have decried the move, the truth is that the Senate is just following the trends toward less formal attire that we’re seeing throughout the workforce.
