What do you wear on the plane?

[Anonymous]

I always bring a long sleeved linen item (cardi, hoodie, something) to protect against A/C which I find very cold. Tee, leggings/yoga pants. Slip on shoes to clear security easily (ballet flats or boat shoes). Tote bag for waters, snacks, devices.

Yoga pants
Running shoes so I don't have to pack them
Layers of shirts (tank + long sleeved usually)
Duster cardigan
Cashmere blanket scarf for when I get cold

Guy - button down shirt, jeans, slip on sneakers.

I always wear sneakers on the plane. In case of an emergency landing where you have to get off quickly & go down the slide.

Leggings, tee shirt, pullover, sneakers

Black stretchy slacks, black dress shoes with small heel, blouse and blazer or cardigan. I bring clothes to change into on the plane for trans-atlantic flights.

Why on earth would you want to change on a plane?

Even if you fly first class and have access to a larger bathroom, you still need to be barefoot when changing (or else put your socks on the dirty floor).

Who are you trying to impress on the front end by dressing up before changing?

I don't get it. If I'm flying for business and going into a meeting, I'm in a suit. If I'm on vacation, I dress for comfort. Black makes everything look dressier--even comfy stuff.

OP, seriously?

I see you have flown with Russians.

That was the majority of my travel because it was almost every week. When I travel for vacation it varies - for ski trips I wear leggings or jeans, boots, and a sweater so I am dressed appropriately for the cold weather on the other end. For international travel I wear leggings, t shirt, cardigan, scarf so I have layers and can sleep on the plane. For shorter trips I just wear whatever I need to wear on the other end when we arrive. Honestly the only time I really think about my airplane attire is for overnight flights.

This is right, especially the bolded. You all put way too much thought into this.

Exactly this, even for business trips.

Always casual. The particulars vary but I make sure to wear socks with shoes that can slip on and off easily.

+1 I had exactly the same reaction, ha!

For long flights--comfy pants (could be leggings, yoga, or palazzo--just depends), LONG first-layer shirt/tank/cami that will stay tucked in, one or more additional layers, outer jacket with at least one zip pocket for passport & ticket.
If I am traveling with a puffy jacket, I wear it on for use as a blanket/pillow.

Sneakers or leather lace-up shoes (Trippen).

I once had a male colleague ask what he should wear on his first business flight with a very senior staffer (and known snappy dresser). I struggled to come up with the male equivalent of black stretchy pants.

For shorter flights--whatever, but it has to be warm enough!

On a business trip, if I’m going straight to the office, black stretchy pants, a nice tee or stretchy top, and a stretchy blazer. Key word stretch so it’s comfortable and doesn’t get wrinkled. For a personal trip, pretty much the same except a sweater or hoodie instead of the blazer. Sometimes stretchy jeans instead of black pants.
