Not by me. They make me cozy and can help me sleep.

A three piece suit and a bow tie. Don't forget to shine your shoes.

I think you simply must allow for cravats.

Somewhere I read the story of the flight attendant who was told he couldn't wear a pocket square.

That’s surprising. I’m trying to recall now but I think I’ve seen them maybe even as part of the standard FA uniforms on some airlines.

yea if the FA uniform regulations dont allow for pocket square, they cant wear it.
Same as for different colored shoes, outer wear, watches etc.
FA uniform regulations can be quite strict.

It was a United flight attendant.

I love the catalogues sent out by high end retailers. Got one yesterday that had a lot of this in it. I've never seen anyone dress like this nor do I hope that I do. But still, I'd wager 75% of the plane laughs about it later should it happen.

I always boggle at anyone who can wear shorts on a plane. It's too *cold*.
