Dress clothes → Dress attire – Per WP:CONSISTENCY with Informal attire. Search engines does indicate prevalence. Chicbyaccident (talk) 00:40, 4 June 2018 (UTC)
 * Oppose, this one should be kept as is per the n-grams (these in lower-case, in upper dress attire doesn't even show up) and common and most familiar name. Randy Kryn (talk) 20:42, 4 June 2018 (UTC)

Women and girls' dress clothes
I am removing a line about what type of underwear women should wear with pantyhose -- "(full cut panties are strongly recommended if one is wearing knee highs)". This article should not be a how-to, but a description of typical attire [| Wikipedia is not a manual]. Another bullet linking to "underwear" could parallel the same item in the men's section if needed.

I don't particularly agree with the "either/or" on pantyhose / knee-highs -- anecdotal experience suggests many people use neither -- but I don't have a contradicting source, so will leave it for now. sten for the win (talk) 00:49, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Merge with informal wear
This poorly sustained material seems like it would better be merged, as suggested, with informal wear. Finally merged after longstanding issues per WP:BOLD. Chicbyaccident (talk) 08:50, 19 November 2018 (UTC)
