Do girls really care about what guys wear?

Question

The reason I ask is I'm simple. Jeans and t-shirt is all I wear hoody if its cold. I will put on a button up and khakis for a funeral or something like that. Other then that I just don't care should I?

Anonymous · Accepted Answer

Yes they do. Most actually but most will not admit to it or to the degree they really care. A guy with no style will not get the ladies like the guy with style even if they are twins. And it isn't always the clothes it's how you wear them and the effort (or appearance of little effort) you put in. You could go to Macy's and spend 200 bucks on brand name crap and look like some square out of a magazine or hit the local thrift store spend 20 bucks and have 3 casual and hip outfits. If jeans are your thing as they are my thing get ones that look good on your ass and legs. Don't be loose but don't be too tight. With t-shirts keep the bright colors to a minimum.

If your job doesn't require it, jeans and a t-shirt is fine. Just wear ones that fit you well and you will actually look better then the average guy.

You might want to not wear beige to a funeral, unless you refer to all ... cotton pants that aren't jeans as khaki's.

It might be useful to own a suit. The most versatile would be a simple charcoal suit that fits you well - its dark enough for a funeral but usable at any formal event.

I realize kids call shirts 'button ups', but old people/people who wear them will cringe, just so you know.

It matters to me to a certain extent. I don't mind a guy wearing jeans and a t-shirt and hoodie on a normal day. However, if you're going out to dinner, a function, meeting your significant others parents, or are at a wedding or a funeral that you should get dressed up a little more. I'm not talking a coat, tie, vest, top hat etc, I'm talking a simple nice pair of pants and abutton-down shirt. I think it's disrespectful to show up to any of those sorts of things wearing clothes you'd wear on the weekend.

I wouldn't let a guy's clothing get in the way of a relationship. But if there's a really nice guy that dresses well, his style is like a "bonus".

What I'm trying to say is, at first sight, it might be an advantage for you to dress well. But since no guys dress really nice (where I live, at least), style doesn't matter too much.

So, no, you don't really need to worry.

In general? No, not at all. But if you show up in your hay bailing clothes to go to a dance with me, unless it's a barn party, I'm going to make you change. Otherwise I don't care what he wears. I don't care what I wear so why should I care what he does?

RedSmartie · Answer

There are certain clothing items that will make a girl assume that a guy is a jerk or gay (like fedoras and v-necks), but most girls don't expect guys to have knowledge of high fashion or anything. Just as long as he doesn't dress like a slob and doesn't wear shirts with misogynist things on them, he's probably fine.

When in doubt, just wear clean, straight jeans with a plain or striped t-shirt or polo and some tennis shoes. Simple and clean is the way to go.

MaskofInsanity · Answer

To some extent. I mean, obviously it'll be hard to be attracted to someone wearing bizarre or unattractive clothing.

Simple is fine. I think the key to dressing well if well-fitted clothing. Jeans and a tshirt/hoodie can look ridiculously sexy when they fit the guys body well.

Anonymous · Answer

yes, it matters to me, in someways more than your looks, because I can forgive someone for being born with a crooked nose, you can't help that, but I find it disrespectful if you turn up to a dinner a date improperly attired and never put any effort into the way you dress.

you don't have to spend a lot of money to look decent, you don't have to wear $100 shirts and $300 dollar pants but you should own clothes that fit you well, are flattering and you should take care of your appearance.

I've never met a guy who didn't appreciate a well put together women, so why shouldn't you do the same for us?

MentallyHilarious · Answer

I appreciate a guy who will wear collared shirts sometimes. Or button ups with the sleeves rolled up and it unbuttoned with a t-shirt under it. I also love a man in Khakis anytime. Lolol even just jeans and a t-shirt I'm ok with. Whatever floats then boat. Just hopefully not blinged out chains and their pants hanging halfway down their ass. So in other words Justin Bieber. Lolol

Kasia234 · Answer

It's all about how you present yourself. I personally don't mind a guy wearing just jeans and a tshirt all the time but if I notice it's the same shirt over and over again then I'd question what he wears. Or if he dresses sloppily and looks as if he's wearing dirty clothes then yes I really care

unighted · Answer

I care, but what you wear sounds nice, nicely fitting basics are pretty cool :)

loda1994 · Answer

idk but I feel like they care more about how you wear more than what you wear. meaning when you go out to meet girls (or anybody actually) you need to be neatly dressed. shirt and a pants are cool if they fit well and clean.

Serah8675309 · Answer

As long as your jeans and t shirts aren't cheap thrift store looking clothes and they fit you and aren't childish then I'm fine with what you where. It seems normal but to answer your question yes we care. I mean don't you care how we dress??

kangaru · Answer

Nope I am not particular about men attire. Infact, I like guys in simple tee and jeans. Look very nice to me.

I don't mind what they wear. Its what's on the inside that really counts.

Iabiel · Answer

Depends on the girl really. Anything that isn't ugly clothes is fine with me (aka fleece jumpers and tracksuits). But dressing well is a definite bonus.

ArieWild17 · Answer

Yes I care jeans and tshirts are fine for casual wear but I like a guy who knows how to dress up when he needs to. I absolutely hate socks with sandals and guys who gym shorts as casual wear that's a no no

Nemocita · Answer

I think you should specially if its an occasion or like a date you wouldnt want to look under dressed while your date looks pretty good, it'll look like you didnt bother and that hes/shes not worth your time or effort which is not something you want people to think about you

Klaatu51 · Answer

dress however you feel comfortable. if a girl cares about what do you wear it's her problem not yours

findingdreamland · Answer

No he can wear whatever he wants as long as he tries to respect manners. For example i can not imagine pink suit in a funeral! LOL

matilda89 · Answer

Just jeans and a t is fine, it's not a deal breaker, but looking scruffy or un clean or messy is just a no no.

Anonymous · Answer

I don't really care unless it has something to do with formal attire.. Oh, and if the guy is sagging... Oh my lord.. That's a turnoff.. No thank you.
Personally, I like a guy with a bit of class, but I can deal with just jeans and a t-shirt.. As long as that guy knows how to clean up well when it comes to something formal.

Twentysomethinggirl · Answer

Hmm well I think a man with simple but good taste is perfect but if your simple and don't know what looks good than it can look quite bad however nothing a bit of girls TLC can't fix! :)

dominique916 · Answer

I know I do. If a guy has style, it's a huge turn on

Anonymous · Answer

Well yes, and no.  Girls like basic stuff; hoodies, button ups, snap backs ((although personally I don't like them)), jeans... Etc.  What girls don't like is when guys wear basketball shorts everyday and t shirts that look like their mom bought for them.  Boys don't have to try super hard, but just look presentable.

Anonymous · Answer

style is SO attractive! if you're not into fashion and dress casually, it's no big deal- but boys with style melt every girl's heart. khaki pants with a v-neck or 3/4 sleeve button down shirt, nice shoes (not the giant osiris crap) etc. it can make unattractive guys look very attractive

Taeyeon0424 · Answer

No, I don't think you really need to care. But it's nice for a girl to get a sense that her guys is trying to impress her with his fashion sense.

Anonymous · Answer

personally I don't care, but I know that some girls would be picky about guy clothing maybe even to the extent of it being a deal breaker.

lauramor · Answer

Tanuki · Answer

Sort of. I do not mind if you wear those but as long as you are not sagging or looking disorderly than I do not care. I hate guys who sag and look disorderly >.<

There are a lot of shallow females on this site. Its no wonder the male race is weakening.  Man up and wear whatever makes you comfortable.

Anonymous · Answer

Eh. It's sexy when you dress up. But not like all the time cause it makes us feel like we have to dress up too. Can't ever be around you in sweats and a t-shirt. But for the most part, it's a good uniform.

Anonymous · Answer

YES! I personally love a guy with "fashion", it just looks so hot and shows that a guy cares about his looks. Guys with boring ugly clothes turn me off. Would you want your gf to wear the same things all the time or not have interesting/sexy clothes?

Aleesings · Answer

Of course we do! You guys need to realize that dressing good will make you more attractive!
