As Americans slowly return to the office, they are rethinking their clothing choices at work.

The 58-year-old used to wear structured business clothes, like dress pants and blazers, and high-heel shoes to work before the pandemic.

在疫情爆发之前,这位58岁的老人过去常常穿着规整的商务服装(如正装裤和西装外套以及高跟鞋)去上班。

Now she wears comfortable clothes, including stylish1 jeans and flowing shirts, along with lower-heel shoes.

He said that back-to-work clothes are still a social experiment and the decision of what to wear could go either way.

"My guess is that it will go more casual, but maybe it doesn't," Galinsky said.

加林斯基说:“我猜它会变得更随意,但也可能不会”。

And even though sales of dress shoes have increased slightly, sales are still 34 percent lower than in 2019.

尽管正装鞋的销量略有增长,但仍比2019年低34%。

The increase is likely to come from more social gatherings2 and not workplaces.
