Or how many of you have worn the same clothes for awhile?
What's the longest you have worn a set of clothes?

Oh man, I'm always wearing the same clothes. Back when I was going to school, I sometimes went the whole school year without changing clothes. Of course, I did make sure to wash them everyday.

not literally the same ones, but the same style at least; it's always jeans with a tee on top, i only wear something else if there is a dresscode

I do. I'm an adult and it doesn't matter anymore because no one will know I am wearing the same outfit except for my husband. As a kid I didn't because I would have been teased for it. I had a few times as a kid and I was getting negative attention for it so I stopped. I even learned to not wear the same outfit in the same week or else you get made fun of for it.

I wear the same clothes as an adult because I am too lazy to stay in my room and figuring out what to wear. I used to have my mother pick my clothes out for me and then she returned to work so I was on my own. I used to grab something random out of my closet but I made sure it was not something I had worn that week or the day before. Sometimes I would wear the same pants but different shirt. I also wore the same socks and always the same bras and underwear. I wore same shoes too which is considered normal by society.

I think I have gone a week wearing the same clothes. But now I hardly wear clothes. I am either naked or in my pajamas and when I go out for my walk or leave my apartment, I put on the same clothes. Then when I get ready for work, I change into my work outfit.

In the house I wear a certain type of pyjama pants. I have two pairs of them and they are exactly the same, so I wear one for about a week whilst the other is being washed.
If I have to go outside somewhere I have a pair of tracksuit trousers. I tend to wear clothes until they are literally falling apart. The pair of tracksuit trousers I wore before the ones I have now have been sewn up several times but now I can't fix them anymore because the material has just worn right through. I get very attached to a certain article of clothing and find anything else very uncomfortable.
For T-shirts, I have about six of the same T-shirt in a few different colours and like the trousers I wear them in rotation.
Sometimes I like buying a new piece of clothing but don't wear them. I just like saving them up.
I also have T-shirts that I bought because I liked the design, even though they don't fit me.

At okay department store, I wore the same black slacks with either a white shirt (usually) or purple shirt (occasionally) like every single day! Yes, a rather limited wardrobe.

I did not wash my clothes every day, but twice a week.

I wear three jumpers exactly the same apart from the colour. Two of my five pairs of trousers (pants) are the same except for the colour.
I know I wear different clothes but others have been mistaken. I mainly wear what I do because it gives me an unhindered freedom of movement and i love to dance. :)
I have never worn a single item of clothing every day for more than three days and then I needed to wash it every day.
Footwear is different, I wore my British Knights trainers for three years until one exploded from the wear. I remember the night that happened, I had to borrow a friend's shoes for the walk home. I have never had such hard-wearing footwear since.
I dread the day my trousers fall to pieces, I just don't know where I will get something the same again.

Often. Including the nights in between. Four days was my record.

I own two pairs of identicale jeans and 3 similar tee shirts, I will go two weeks wearing the same jeans then swtich, and 7 days with the tee shirts. I have 2 long sleeve tops that I can wear for months without washing

that's basically all my clothing

I'll go for a week at least in the same clothes. usually jeans and a T-shirt with something over it (flannel shirt or sweatshirt). I'll change my boxers whenever possible and the T-shirt when the collar starts to stretch out, but if I find a pair of pants or shorts that I like I tend to get attached and the thought of wearing anything else stresses me out. I smoke a lot of cigarettes and hope that the smell overpowers the smell of my old nasty clothes and body odor

my son has all his tshirts very similar, all his jeans exactly the same, and all his shoes are the same. he has what is like a uniform, although he does have lote of clothes, there is no veriety of styles.
It was only after I was describing this at his assessment that I noticed my wardrobe was very similar.
It could look to other people like we dont change our clothes.

I used to wear the same clothes for a month, then my mom would force me to change.

I have two identical pairs of jeans, two identical plain long sleeved t-shirts (apart from the colour) and two hoodies. I wear one set while the other set is in the wash. I have worn the same pair of trainers every day for over a year and will continue to do so until they wear out when I will buy another pair of the same brand. I detest clothes shopping and only buy new clothes when they wear out, at which point I will probably buy virtually identical clothes from the same shops. Every few years I decide that I really should be more girly and buy some fashionable clothes and make up and shoes and get my hair done but, despite my best efforts and good intentions, within a couple of months I am back to jeans and t-shirts, the make up isn't being used and any attempts to style my hair properly have gone out of the window.

I have a strict schedule on how long stuff can be worn, then I switch accordingly, but I do generally wear the same stuff, which people do sorta laugh at me for...but I dont care tbh

I only change clothes if I sweat in them. I have a rule to not wear an outfit more than two days in a row, and if I'm going out somewhere, to change into something else, while putting the old outfit on a chair to wear later. If I'm around the house, I may wear an outfit for three or four days before calling it quits and throwing it in the laundry pile.
