Would you have noticed if your prof wore the same outfit

[papie]

Twice in a row?

I only see this class every other week or so, and they watch videos of me and other colleagues on the week off. I think I wore this same pink tunic two weeks ago but with different pants. Aargh. I am on the train.

They watched videos of me last week wearing different outfits, so that is good?

[thinkofthesoldiers]

Two days back to back? Maybe. Teo weeks in a row? No.

[Deleted]

Yea.

I notice stuff like that.

I prob wouldn't care though

[Deleted]

Oh - an entire week?

Still maybe. Lol.

But it's a week! It's totally fine!

[Elsa]

Nope. I can barely remember what I wore yesterday, much less anyone else lol

[ProfessorArtNerd]

No, no one will notice. I wore the same printed pants last Wednesday and yesterday. But I teach in the dark soooo

[whitemerlot]

No. I can't even remember what I wore a week ago.

[papie]

It's actually two weeks lol.
I overthink that stuff. I always wonder if they think I have nothing else to wear.
Thanks!

[sandyapples]

I had a bio prof who wore the same two pairs of pants all semester (twice a week class). I noticed that.

Same outfit two week ago? If I noticed, I wouldn't think anything of it.

[xtine22]

Probably only if I thought it was a cute/ugly outfit but even if I did I would assume you have done laundry a bunch since then.

[cbwm1]

I would, but I tend to notice stupid shit like that. A majority of people wouldn't.

[moolarkey]

Yes. I had a history prof that wore about 3 shirts. They were a plaid and it was noticeable. He was also probably the best prof I had. I had him for 3 or 4 classes over a couple of years, most either met 4 or 5 days a week. I saw him a LOT.

[rupertpenny]

Yes, but I wouldn't think anything of it.

I definitely noticed that my boss was wearing the same pants today as yesterday.

[ECB]

even if they do notice, why does it matter? Normal people wear their clothes more than once! As long as it's not back to back (as in one day right after the other) - why does it matter?

[lovelyshoes]

No. Don't stress over it. I wouldn't notice and even if I did, there is no way I would think any less of you:). Have a great day!

[shamrockshake]

only if it was really good, I would be like oh that's that pink shirt I liked, or if it was really hideous.

[W.T.Faulkner]

Don't worry; no one will notice. The more observant ones will likely know you wore it before, but they won't know when.

I might, especially if it was something noticeable, but it's been two weeks. It's ok to wear the same outfit again.

You should probably just wear that one shirt for the rest of the semester just to mess with them.

I had one prof in university who had one hot weather outfit and one cold weather outfit. Or maybe 10-15 of the same outfit. Math teachers are weird.

lol. I had a psych professor who wore a full zip-up mechanic's jumpsuit every day. He was a behavioral psychologist and said he didn't want people to react differently to him based on what he was wearing each day. Why that had to be a mechanic's suit and not, say, a shirt and pants, I have no idea.

I would. I had a one-night-a-week prof and she always wore the same pink top and mauve pants. A few of us who were night-only students asked other people in class and that was basically her uniform every Wednesday b/c they saw her in other outfits on other days. It was strange and definitely noticeable even by week 2 or 3.

See? That's what I'm worried about! lol

[rugbywife]

No. I wouldn't notice if my husband wore the same outfit two days in a row.

[pantsparty]

I would assume I had a really smart professor that just can't keep track of clothing choices due to all the other smart things happening. Like how Einstein couldn't recognize his house ersumshit.

[hopecounts]

2 weeks apart?
Nope or at least not enough to really care I might have a second of did she wear that last time but honestly wouldn't care enough to put any thought into it

[lilac05]

Probably not. And if I did, it would be "ooh! She's wearing that cute tunic again!" But you're not wearing it for a Tues class and then that Thursday. Two weeks between wearing it is more than reasonable (& they've seen you in something else since then). Plus you're wearing different pants & probably different jewelry. You're good!

I think just happening to wear the same outfit two times in a row is one thing.  Sure, people might notice, but it will also be in the realm of understanding they haven't seen you in 2 weeks. 

But if you wear the same outfit EVERY time - eh, yeah, that might be something that people might talk about. 

Anecdote: YEARS ago I was in a training class.  There was a guy in it who wore a suit every day.  One day I happened to notice that he had on the same tie as the day before, and I then thought "Huh- the suit looks like it might be the same".  But I kind of let the thought go.  He's young - maybe he can't afford much.  Of course he must have more than one shirt, though.

Well.... I noticed an ink mark on the cuff of his shirt.  Next day, same ink mark. 

IDK, maybe he had gone out that night and had a wild night and just never went home, but after that, I started paying closer attention and he was in the same outfit EVERY day. 

THAT is going to garner unwanted attention.  Wearing the same outfit twice in 2 weeks will get a blink and then they'll move on.

[knx9211]

Nope. But I'm pretty sure that I wore a dress covered in birds twice within a week's time, so...

lol. Well, he failed at that. If he'd picked something bland, sure. But instead he decided to be the teacher whose clothes stand out most so probably got the most behavioral reactions out of it.

[blondemoment123]

If it was 2 days back to back I'd probably wonder day it was. But college was...fun.

I kind of love this. At my last job, I rotated the same 7 outfits, which used 7 identical pairs of pants. It was glorious not having to think about what to wear.
