There is an article in Today's NY Times Style section on
weather-appropriate work attire (by subscription) I think reflects some of the sentiment that we've discussed here in this forum. For the purposes of commentary, here are some of the more pertinent passages:
Unfortunately, the author overlooked the kilt option, but something tells me that if he's afraid of being laughed at over shorts, he'll have a tougher time strapping on a nice five-yard summer kilt. Shorts or kilts, it seems that we share the same concerns that constrain men into conformity.
So, I should talk? I wear a suit to work every day, but here's my stupid concession: on the hottest days last week I carried my jacket in, hung it on the hanger in my cube, and carried it out. Would I have preferred to wear my MacLeod of Harris Hunting kilt and linen shirt? You betcha, but that's not the company I hired into.
Yet.
Regards,
Rex in Cincinnati
