    Oh, I can answer this one on the extreme end pretty easily: I have one "outfit". Exact same look every day, and it's distinctive. At any place I've worked it's lasted about 2 days of "look he's...

    At any place I've worked it's lasted about 2 days of "look he's wearing the same thing as yesterday! haha". After that, people just didn't care unless something weird happened like GASP I wear a sweater and obfuscates my normal look, and then I get compliments on my sweater.

    Really, nobody cares except that it gives them an opportunity to point out something unsual in their day, and once it's no longer unusual it simply doesn't matter to them.

    I can also say that I received a promotion citing very clearly that everyone knows who I am and how to find me. Am I a very important person? No. Critical? No. But everyone knows me, partially due to my dress.

    So wear whatever you want. Nobody cares unless/until it affects how easy it makes their day.

    p.s. I wear it at home, at work, after work, on vacation. I am distinctly recognizable even though it's not particularly unusual. I'm a shy person, introverted and I spend most of my time at home... and yet it's never caused me issue despite those facts.
