Zoom Video Call - Work Dress code

How do you dress for work? Casual, smart? Has it changed since the pandemic started (may not be applicable to all).

Jumper on the top. PJ's or sweatpants on the bottom.

I find it irritating when people zoom in a shirt and tie.

I’ve gone slightly scruffier, a casual shirt and jeans rather than work shirt and trousers

I still wear the work shirt sometimes and roll up the sleeves because it causes moistness in others

Seriously if it's a business zoom call, i still expect people to dress reasonably smart. Not shirt & tie smart but, no scruffy t-shirt or pj's

Yes. At first I'd still go through the rigmarole of wearing a dress, proper underwear, hair done to perfection.

Now I'm still clean and presentable but it's more likely to be a t-shirt and cardigan or if I'm talking to clients, a blouse and a bralette.

I turned the camera off on my last one and said it wasn’t working. I had just got out of the shower so wasn’t dressed properly and had wet hair. You can get so much more done when they’re not watching you.

Same as I used to wear for work but then it wasn’t suited and booted for that so it’s not a problem

When I'm teaching, it's pretty similar to normal times - yesterday a knitted dress and tights. Today, leggings with oversize shirt and vest top underneath - I've worn such things to work before in the "real" world. The only thing I've really worn that's different to "usual" is if I stick a hoodie on to avoid putting the heating on. At work, I'd usually wear a smart cardigan instead. I wouldn't teach in the hoodie though or attend a senior management meeting with it on!

In march of last year id get fully dressed, shirt, jeans all that...

Now i just throw on a clean t-shirt and have PJ bottoms on...

Occasionally i'll not wear anything on the bottom and send one of our managers a pic during the calls (she was my FB before lockdown, and we've still be sexting throughout)

I just have to remember to turn my cam off before i stand up!

I've really made a point of sticking to work clothes for work (smart jeans / shirt / jumper etc).

I've found it helps getting ready after walking the pup, going into the office upstairs and working as normal... it means I can close the office door at five, get changed and there is proper separation from work time.

It’s usually a smart cardi (Bra optional) and my best panties. I find it gives me that confidence I need to negotiate the best deals

There and to the left a bit

Currently wearing ling sleeve top and my boxers as I sit staring at the screen!!

Once showered will add jeans and a hoody to that.

As I've worked from home for years my standard wear is usually jeans and a top anyway.

Joggers and jumper and a nice scarf if it saves me putting the heating on

It saves on lots of ironing especially with schools closed too

The people I know who WFH wear the same as they would if they were going into work. I'd be the same. I think it's important to have a clear definition between work and not work.

work appropriate clothing is important to me and often to the people interact with. If I was consulting a financial expert for instance and they popped up on my screening casual wear I'd have less confidenceiin them than if they were smartly dressed.

anyone see the "I'm not a cat" zoom call?

Definitely the cat one for me. We were laughing so much. Him saying "I'm not a cat" as if people thought he was
