Hm. My husband has long hair, lives in blue jeans, t-shirts and flannel shirts. He also holds a prestigious position at an ivy league university. So much for power dressing. It's not what you wear but what you bring to the table. If you're full of BS, you're still full of BS in a suit.

When you are discussing dressing according to standards set by the place of employment, that's an entirely different situation. That's a case of rules and being dictated to. That's not dressing to impress, that's dressing to maintain a job. Big difference.
