Fashion and Clothes

Casual clothes	Informal, everyday dress	Every last Friday of the month council staff donate a pound to wear casual clothes to work.
Smart casual	Neat, conventional, yet relatively informal in style, especially as worn to conform to a particular dress code	Think of a smart casual outfit as one that you’d wear for a movie or dinner date.
Business/formal attire	Not casual, suitable for official or important occasions clothes	Students dress in highly formal clothes.
Classic-sharp outfit	Fashionable in a simple, timeless, ‘classic’ way	They sell classic-sharp business shirts and suits.
Eccentric clothes	Strange and unconventional clothes	I dislike wearing untidy and eccentric clothes.
Conservative outfit	Dressing in a way that is traditional and familiar; cautious about change	Because Egypt is a Muslim country, dress should be conservative and women should not wear revealing clothes.
Presentable	Looking reasonably tidy, smart etc	As long as you’re tidy, clean and presentable you should be sorted.
Untidy clothes	Not arranged neatly and in order	Her whole dress was very untidy, and looked dirty and slatternly.
Stylish	Displaying good taste, a sense of style, or the latest fashions	One math teacher tried to convince me that his suit was stylish and expensive.
Sloppy	Casual and loose-fitting	All boys in jeans, sloppy T-shirts and the usual expensive trainers.
Well-fitted	Being of the right shape and size for someone	Finally, I found well-fitted jeans in the local store.
Boring	Tedious, uninteresting	On the whole I find your new dress quite boring.
To match	If one thing matches another, or if they match, they form an attractive combination	Men may be seen dressed in formal, well-matched suits or sports coats.
To dress up	To dress in smart or formal clothes	I am not really the fashionable type. But of course, I also dress up for special occasions.
