  • How important are clothes to you?

    Being a nudist all my life, clothes have never been very important to me. I've never tried to stay up on fashions, and own relatively few clothes. For example, I only have two sport coats and a couple of white shirts. In other words, I don't have clothes on top of clothes. I do however, make sure my clothes are always clean. Do nudists tend to be clothes-horses or the opposite? Does anyone try to stay up to date with fashion, or could you care less?

        Not very! - Now that I am retired and don't
        have to dress for work I wear about 3 different sweat shirts and jeans for the winter months, and a couple of pair of shorts and tops in the summer when I am not naked. I also very seldom wear socks in winter and never in summer.

        I might add it makes it very difficult for family to buy me anything for Christmas, birthday or Father's day now that they have to scratch the clothes off their list.

          Clothes are a necessity, in my case, for two reasons:
          1. I can't go nude outdoors where i live, work, etc.
          2. It gets too cold to be comfortable nude all the time, even if I could.
          ...therefore, since I have to wear them I buy those that are comfortable and of a style of my liking. What is the current height of fashion would make little difference. If I don't like it, I don't buy it. But..!..I wouldn't be so out of style as to be ridiculous (bell bottoms, leisure suit, etc).

          Of course, nothing is more comfortable to wear than, well....nothing!

            I'm in the wrong line of work for a nudist, I have to wear PPE (Personal Protective Clothing) when I'm on site, well I have to set an example as the site manager. We have signs at the entrance to the site:
            No hat
            No boots
            No job
            But reflective vests are also a requirement, no shorts allowed, then in winter its outside in all kinds of weather, I'm glad that I'm getting out of it.
            As if all that wasn't bad enough, if I had to spend time in the office (Like now!) I have to wear collar and tie, although we are allowed casual Friday, wouldn't it be interesting to see how they take my idea of casual, should I try it on my last Friday with the company?

              It would probably be your last Friday with the company, intentionally or not! So, save it until you are sure you want to leave.

                I have all sorts of clothes from when I worked, as my wife kept me well suited for my work. Retired, I'm trying to stay the same size for health and to keep wearing whatever clothes I have that haven't worn out. They should last forever. Most frequently worn clothes are sweat pants and long sleeved shirts for the winter and short pants and t-shirts for the summer. Only on Sunday morning do I wear my long sleeved pants. I no longer bother to iron them, but do put them in the laundry for my wife to do when they ever get dirty. Wear underwear with them to protect them. Otherwise, I don't wear underwear.

                I only wear sport coats for warmth inside in the winter on Sunday mornings. Tore a small hole in the jacket of my one good suit; so, I don't wear it any more. Very seldom, if ever, will need to wear a suit any more. I volunteer in master gardening things. Their dress is very casual for all events.

                I've a few swim suits for wearing outside where the public could possibly see me and for when we have the rare pool party. These are Speedos or briefer. Keep some old cotton shorts stashed in various different places for when people show up unannounced and I'm outside nude. I'll casually walk to the nearest stash and put a short on. Even one of my swim suits I'd do this for, too, as it's just legal but possibly too brief for some folks to see me close up. Wear that suit when washing the cars now, at the insistence of my wife. However, I sometimes drive them around back where I can wash them while naked, if the ground isn't too soft to compact the soil.

                  I could care less. My wardrobe is basically for work and when I need to be in public. I refuse to pay high prices for labels that 'label' Hundres of $$$'s for 'name brand' stuff is crazy. I've got better thing to do with my hard earned money.

                    I like clothes--I'll admit it. I live in a world where most people do not accept the naturist lifestyle. I enjoy dressing up for appropriate occasions, but I also enjoy beeing nude in equally appropriate settings.

                      Clothes serve a purpose and are needed. I just happen to hate wearing them when they are being worn for no other reason than to spare others "modesty sake".

                        I like clothes. Have a bunch of them, like to change looks once in a while. For some occasions you have to dress up, for others dress down. Like to go in my walking closet and put an outfit together.

                          When I dress, I do it for comfort only. I could care less about 'fashion', and never 'dress up'. I will wear shorts and a t-shirt to a funeral.

                            It depends. If you travel in business to Far-East you dress to honor the others. Same often in Europe in business but casual is the an other story.

                              I dress for the occasion when it is necessary to go out in public. I have several suits and also sweatshirts and levi's as necessity dictates.
