I prefer loose, soft clothing but what drives me insane is wool. I know it makes most people itch, I just can't tolerate it.

I reallyy don't like long pants unless it's freezing, I can't stand some types of tags, I only wear long socks because short ones annoy me, I can't wear jumpers that I have to pull over my head, wool drives me berserk, certain fabrics just make me flip out, I can only wear boy leg/hipster undies, I always wear an underwire bra because without it I feel uncomfortable, but I do tend to dress very unique and cool but it's within sensory limits

Yes, it is awful when I see someone touching fabric. When I now think about it writing it down, I get into a cramp.
I am very sensitive to all sorts of material and therefore I scratch my skin open a lot, because a lot of materials "burn" on my skin. So do the sheets and blankets in bed. Or hair falling into my face, that's why I always tie it together.

I hate anything around my neck, except one specific very soft scarf in winter. I dislike long sleeves and pant legs, but there is no choice in winter. I hate two layers of long sleeves, they are too heavy on my arms. I hate tight clothing made of weird fabrics that are not cotton. I don't own any dresses. I like to wear vests to be warm without sleeves.

I don't like to wear clothes that make me feel exposed. I hate wear outfits that show a lot of skin.
I like to wear clothes that cover as much of my body as possible.

Things, like ties, that are tight around my neck are VERY uncomfortable & make me nervous. Weirder, even soft hats, caps (other than my watch cap/took!) drive me crazy! I can get something almost like a migraine if I keep a hat on. Makes it hard to bike (helmet laws here!) because I start off ok, but by 40 minutes a headache is coming on.

I generally like cotton. I feel most secure in long-sleeves, particularly because they cover my tattoos so people don't feel tempted to ask about them and make me explain, which happens often. I prefer skirts to pants, though leggings under the skirt are okay. I feel super strongly about wearing the right kind of underwear. Non-cotton underwear makes me itch, underwear that rolls up at the leg annoys me, underwear that doesn't cover all my bottom and the rest of it bothers me (some more sexy underwear cuts off a bit too low for my taste). Tags in underwear annoy me. Sorry to prattle on about underwear.

Anyone else find themselves totally okay with wearing the same outfit...all the time? As in, the perfect clothes that fit to your needs and are perfectly comfortable and look nice on you?

I'm very picky (well, my mom says "picky", I say "discriminating") about my clothes. NOTHING around my neck, ever (I can't stand to have my neck touched, instant breakdown trigger there), nothing that is too scratchy or has tags or seams sticking out. Nothing that is tight enough to cut into my skin (my mom used to have to remove the elastic from all of my clothes before I would wear it), but I don't like anything overly baggy either, because I'm irritated by the loose fabric. Oh, and the seams of socks have always been a problem with me - I refused to wear socks for several years because of it. Nowadays the seams have to be dead center and sitting on the tops of my toes where my nails meet my skin for me to tolerate them (and have a really interesting pattern on them, because otherwise they're just not worth it.)

I like wearing cotton sundresses and flip flops, cotton t-shirts and long sleeves, stretchy lycra yoga pants with a colorful fold down waist, jeans (but only if properly soft inside), cotton panties (much prefer them to have gathered/ruffled cotton material on top and legs rather than bands, plus I think it's cute), and shorts in winter are fun. I like my t-shirts to be snug and the sleeves must be long enough to go almost to my knuckles (I like the way it looks and I'm rather short and small boned so most shirts are long enough for this). Wool is too much for me, as are tights and pantyhose- pure torture, in my experience.

baggy clothes, ahhh, my fav : )
i dont like tight shirts, the movement when it sticks to and you turn and bend and such it just itches horribly, some i can handle most i cant,
cant stand tags, cut them off and then spend ages getting the rest of the part of the seam.
dont mind wearing jeans but they have to be baggy, dont know how people are wearing these skinny jeans.
i cant wear dresses cause there is always something that will make me want to jump ouit of them whether its the elastic or the fabric or the pattern(frilly or lacey or blingy) just cant wear them, i prefer soft and flexible. i dont like singlets because the straps fall off then my shirt starts slipping down :/
umm yes not a fan of buttons, love zips, apart from when they get caught.
i dont like the seams at the bottom of my socks, and my socks have to be thick or my feet dont feel protected and i usually would prefer to wear no socks and just shoes or nothin at all then.
wool is definately something i cant tolerate, ive just always said " im allergic to it" well i guess not haha.
dont like skirts, i feel bare :/
hate bra's haha, prefer not to wear one when home and alone.
cotton is the main thing i wear.

i too wear the same clothes all the time. i have prob 3 set outfits that i will wear thru one month and thats the only clothes i will wear, i should mention i have ALOT too, i hoard ?

All clothes annoy me to some extent. It's not a major annoyance, but I vastly prefer being stark naked to wearing clothes.

It just feel more natural.

I can't wear capri pants, they hit my legs in the wrong spot. 3/4 length sleeves do the same thing. Turtlenecks bother my neck and are too tight all around. Leggings are too tight. The only tight pants I'll wear are horse riding breeches. Shirts can't be tight, they have to be loose and only certain fabrics. I like polo shirts, t-shirts, button up collared dress shirts and hoodies. Hats generally annoy my head and give me a headache except my collection of animal styled winter toques.

The only clothes that don't irritate me are the clothes I wore yesterday.

This tends to be problematic.

Yes, i hate small t-shirts, too tight clothing. I'm very uncomfortable in most jeans. It's hard for me to find jeans i want to wear. They have to be perfect. I like wearing stockings and skirts. Loose shirts and clothing. I'm ridiculously picky when it comes to clothes.

I wear jeans most of the time, but other than that I also prefer lose clothing. I hate when it gets too hot in the summer to wear baggy sweatshirts and I have to switch to tees. They're comfortable if I buy them several sizes larger, but I hate the way I look in them.

One thing I absolutely can't stand are tight elastic waistbands in boxer shorts. I'm rather slim, but even XXL boxers feel constraining around my waist and almost cause me physical pain. I've only found one brand of baggy boxers that I feel comfortable in. I can't have anything tight around my neck either.
