Sounds like whoever said that either doesn’t care about how they present themselves anymore, or they’re a little envious, whether it’s about style, money, or confidence.
It’s like going to the beach and griping that someone’s wearing a bikini… “People need to stop showing so much skin” as if everyone should be in board shorts and a t-shirt.
Some people are career-minded and believe in “dress for the job you want, not the job you have.” If you’re content where you are, that’s fine. Just don’t take shots at others for aiming higher.
Agreed with everything you said!
Okay, but also let people wear comfortable clothing if it's about self-expression. E.g. T-shirt and shorts

I work for a “tech” company and we can wear whatever we want (within reason) unless we have a client facing meeting. It is quite funny to see people in full suit and tie sitting next to a someone in shorts, t-shirt and flip-flops.
I agree with you.. dressing up makes people feel good and doesn’t cross any actual dress code or distract anyone, why not let people express themselves? Work takes up so much of our lives; a little personal style can make things more fun and help people feel confident. As long as it’s respectful and professional enough, I say let people enjoy it!

Assuming that the attire does not violate a published dress code, what's the issue? Dress codes usually are about image, cleanliness, safety.
I essentially wear the same thing everyday like a cartoon character but that’s more for ease of use…wear what you want, a little individuality is important at work
Steve Jobs and Elizabeth Holmes theory… 👏
Its hard to be out of place. I'm a bum so I would hope someone wouldn't tell me to dress better although it has happened lol. I laughed. It doesn't bother me.
