Anyway though I don’t see why you couldn’t take it off. It’s not a state secret.

Why would anyone go to the office with a hoodie under their blazer?

Well my dickie is like a sweater but yeah, I think it kind of only makes sense outside. Someday I’ll go to a corporate wine tasting and it will be PERFECT for that. I do wear the blazer alone a lot, and I like the concept of the dickies.

I’m a knitter and I actually made a turtleneck dickie that doesn’t have zippers or anything and I love it. I wear it under a puffer basically in lieu of a scarf. I wouldn’t hesitate to take the coat off and take it off in front of people. It’s not like a shameful secret it’s just a piece of clothing with a small illusion element.

I work in tech and I usually wear the hoodie dickey with my black blazer. Otherwise it’s too formal for a tech office. Makes me look like I wandered in from the legal department

I don’t understand the people who think you can’t take your jacket off. What? You understand you’re still supposed to wear a shirt, right???

these are really dumb. You need to be able to take off your jacket. So ugly.

I have one of the hoodie dickey's but like the PP, have never worn it. I got mine from The Real Real - they are insanely overpriced at retail prices. Even via TRR it seemed like a lot to pay for what it is. I got mine to try out under a VB coat and I think it looks cute but I just forget to put it on.

I like VB blazers and have one, but can't really see wearing the dickeys with it. Too fussy for my personal style. That said there are TON of different options from cashmere to faux leather; it's not just the sweatshirt-style hoodies.

Why?

It’s like a girl version of the DeMatha look which is one of the only fashion things we’ve ever produced locally so seems like a weird thing to be mad about.

Not mad, just confused. Thanks for explaining.

I have camisole dickeys that I wear with a couple of dresses that are too low cut for work, when it's too warm for a full extra layer.

Do people on this board wear them? I feel like this board skews left and while I don't hate the look on it's face I think Kayleigh McEnany ruined them for me forever. That was her THING.

How? She makes them so look good.

I have a jacket but would never actually wear a dickey with it. i have lightweight silk shells i can wear under for the same effect and yeah, take the jacket off or wear it open (it swings nicely).
