I find the upgrade succes rate to be MUCH higher when I wear a shirt and tie. A genuine "good morning" to the GAs with a nice smile does wonders as well.

A nice thank you when you do get your upgrade is always appreciated by the GAs AND they just might remember you the next time you are in line for an upgrade....
Regardless of what I wear, I get my upgrades based on my status. This question might be better answered by those who have no status and dress well or crappy.
