I doubt the credibility of the article when the spot checks were conducted at places like Vivocity. If expats and tourists think it's okay to dress down themselves, while put the spotlight on locals? Everyone finds it hot here.
Dress apporpriately for the event and the company you're with. Obviously, whoever raised the issue thinks that walking down the street is an occasion in itself, a fashion parade.
I agree.
I find that there're people who like to measure Singaporeans with foreign standards or conventions; and when we fail to measure up, they'd proclaim that we're not being appropriate. Frankly, this annoys me... why must they be our basis of comparison?

Chanced upon this in the papers a while ago... I thought it's kinda interesting.
A number of people who responded claimed that going places in tee-shirts, shorts and flip-flops means you aren't according people the proper respect.
Yet, I wonder.. how do these people define 'respect'?
Anyone care to share your view with me?
respect must be earned.
LOL. i go almost everywhere in that attire. because it's comfy.

What you wear shows your respect? i see people in formal weear go around saying bad words. What respect they see?
