Casual only now Aug 7, 2020

Since it's winter time in Brazil, casual.
But usually ultra-casual (bermuda shorts, bare feet and sometimes a T-shirt).

Clothes to wear around the house too Aug 7, 2020

Pherhaps this question is relevant for translators who do not work from home, or interpreters who have to follow a strict dress code, for example, in court.
As a translator who works from home, I usually wear clothes that make me feel comfortable, and are easy to wear.
I do not need to dress to impress, all that I need is an impressive brain to do my job well.

my usual Aug 7, 2020

Summer at home work attire, 5 dollar house dress from Joe Fresh, fliplops. Maybe I'd go out in public but no further than the mailbox.

Ultra casual Aug 7, 2020

Shorts and a very ratty T-shirt. It's summer in San Diego. I could go out to pick up the mail, but I wouldn't go to a store without changing into something nicer.

Business casual Aug 7, 2020

Nice summer dress (it's hot here), jewelry and basic makeup. And inside slippers.
I can go out like that just replacing the slippers with sandals.

Pyjama brigade Aug 8, 2020

Self-employed (i.e. no guaranteed fat cat income, work-from-home) translators used to go by the name pyjama brigade. Has that changed?

Dressed? Work? Aug 8, 2020

You mean "dressed" as in clothes? What clothes?

Work? What work?

No work, no clothes.
