Mind you, there's touristy Hawaiian shirts and Hawaiian Hawaiian shirts ( two tone , more subtle)
Ps Did you buy any Hawaiian CrazyT shirts Uncle T or your iWife? Perfect long lasting quality if I may say!!!
Travelling to Austria, Switzerland, Germany : lederhosen is a must.
For Netherlands obviously heavy wooden clogs.
For Belgium? ... Anything goes, as long as it is accompanied by a bowl of chips and mayonnaise or tartare sauce or pickles

You've reminded me how I miss wearing a flowery shirt and sulu to work, perfect for the climate too, a breeze in all the right places

And for equality I see no problem with shorts for men.

People worrying about others dress sense on public transport suggests a complete disconnect with the World.
The personal stress, anger and jealousy you are feeling at others is probably very bad for your health and relationships with loved ones.

The temperature on many BA flights pretty much requires wearing shorts and a t-shirt or sleeveless top when trying to sleep in club world or first.
I'd be willing to wear pajamas if they could keep the temperature around 66F/19C.

Don't the pilots control the cabin temperatures?

Darling - I don't go to bed some nights before 5.30 - and you think that I'm going to start laying down the law in some Lounge when I should be laying down myself? Ice your cocoa!
Whilst we're about it - I do not recall any discussion about salary or travel benefits.
Still - I might be tempted just to read the Scream Fest here about this demented Gargoyle fresh from Notre Dame with a witch's cut price wig smacked me for using my mobile phone - what compensation am I due??
NWIflyer, mon Ange if what I hear is true - you and I can go Clubbing as Paris Hilton and Britney and be New Best Friends! We can do a remake of Lady and The Tramp! We'll be rich and famous and fly in Private Jets safe from all the Riff Raff in Airport Lounges!

They offend me too. A few years ago when I was managing a technology department in a law firm of note, I led a campaign of civil disobedience against the then dress code which was not only far too gender specific but required ties for men. This made the code almost impossible to enforce and annoyed both my more staid colleagues lawyers and the HR department - two added advantages.

Incidentally people wearing suits and ties wanting business in the Valley from tech companies won't get much, in my experience.
