A friend of mine asked and I figured getting as much feedback would not hurt. My friend is moving for further studies to a country that has cold winters.
So his questions are:
1. With coats and sweaters being outerwear, is it socially acceptable to wear the same coat or sweater to classes and laboratory work everyday?
2. How many days within the same week is it acceptable to wear the same outerwear?
3. Same goes as to gloves and knitted cap
4. If he only has/ or can bring two coats/sweaters, what would be good points to consider when
a. selecting which outer wear to bring (like muted or bold colors, plain or printed ones, "statement" types etc)
b. how best to "schedule" wearing each outer wear within the days of the same week?
c. should he purchase a "nicer more dressy" coat for formal dinners etc?
Thanks!
