worst dressed professions

[ggirl]

weather girls
clergy women

Plumbers!

Did anyone see the plumber scene in Miranda the other week?

Clowns

estate agents

And Asda

But (referring to OP) not all clergy women

estate agents - all the young blokes with poncey gel and big knots in the tie!

The teachers at our school are all well dressed - clearly they all have more money than me to spend on clothes!

Mobile phone salespeople.

Wet look gel and cheap suits...and that's just the women ;-)

Strippers, porn stars, pole dancers, glamour models

I work in the arts and its a fine line between looking cool enough and being comfortable for rehearsals, everyone carries around at least one change of clothes with them!

DH works for a games company, they ALL wear jeans and tshirts, and the company regularly gives them t shirts and hoodies with the company logo on....it's practically a uniform

I work in a library and it is a style desert, head to toe Fatface, White Stuff and Per Una.

However, the most glamorous person I know is an art teacher

Charity fundraisers

I worked in fundraising for years and got progressively scruffier and scruffier, with the odd day where I'd scrub up for interviews / important meetings.

bigTillyMint you've hit the nail on the head with librarians! At my local library there are 2 main offenders one male one female who dress in full on polyester vintage (genuine vintage as in purchased by themselves in 1970). I call their look Open University circa 1976, seriously they could exhibit their wardrobes in a museum. Crazy hair, socks and sandals genuine article geeks none of this quirky geek revival for them they are the genuine article, I'd love to know what they do when their not working at the library........

Gutted. I've been mentioned.

There's still nothing on this earth that would get me wearing Boden or M&S. I won't even set foot in Next. There's clearly no hope for me

Oh and you've got DH as well.

It's a good job DS knows his way round a shopping centre or we'd be a houseful of laughing stocks

Bootsy, are you sure they're not going for the full-on retro look? Sound way more exciting than our local librarians!

On the contrary, Montage. A lot of clowns are very snappy dressers.

Snappier than Social Workers certainly Paula, I'll grant you that.

And clown shoes must be purchased from specialist shops or on-line. (I'm not a clown. I once went to a Clown's Convention, by accident).

Often, people that wear uniforms dress badly in 'civvies'. I say people, I mean men, really.

fast food employees- polyester clothes that are too baggy and trousers that flap around their ankles.

Deffo engineer types. I dress like a sack of shite

As a teacher I am bloody more stylish than a weather girl.

I suspect pay has a lot to do with this.

"I'm not a clown. I once went to a Clown's Convention, by accident."

Do tell!

I'm picturing a scenario like Cam in Modern Family who accidentally dresses up as a clown when he's stressed (he sleep-clowns)

Emergency services. All of them!

Academics
Computer Scientists
Librarians

(That's my family taken care of then )
