Changes to dress code

[GMTM]

Just had a huddle the other day and store director said dress code is changing this summer? Have any of you heard about this?

Jeans or khakis, no shorts, no vests, plain bright red shirts only.

Where do bigger people buy these things. Bullseye shop doesn’t really fit me and is expensive? I usually like to dress a bit nicer but all my stuff is burgundy or maroon.

welcome. no communication at my store yet.

I don't know how they're going to keep leadership's interest in enforcing the "bright red" rule on a population that can't even push a towel aisle correctly, but OK.

I'll continue wearing my wines and rubies until they start walking around holding a swatch up to our shirts.

I've seen rumors on here and elsewhere about the dress code changing in some way but no official communication, or anything specific from anyone besides the vests not being allowed anymore

Our female ETL wore a red vest. She looked like a casino dealer. Miss her, she was terrific. A very measured, articulate and fair leader.

I think all we need is a vest and the name badge . That’s the best way customers can spot a team member and TMs don’t have to spend their money on red shirts . I hate wearing bright red . I wear some shades of red shirts/blouse and always a burgundy zip up hoodie .

lots of discussion. Talks of phone calls with SDs regarding the changes, and it becoming official in the summer -- actual change in the policy.

Some stores appear to be enforcing it early, according to reddit.

no "public" discussion about it at my store, though. Not that I know of, anyway.

I like the vest, covers up the beer gut.

At the turn of the century, vests were part of the Target dress code. Then they gradually turned to solid red shirts and khakis
