When anyone in the company has commented about my casual tie-less attire, I have replied with one of the following 2 answers:

1. I am an engineer working in a modern hi-tech industry. Tell me why should I dress like an Edwardian?

2. I thought I was employed as an engineer, not a model. Naomi Campbell doesn't get out of bed for less than £10k a day; pay me that & I'll wear what you like.
