What the Cut’s Editors Actually Wear on a Date

There’s a very specific chaos to getting dressed for a date: You want to look hot but not overtly sexy. Comfortable but not giving “bodega run.” Flirty but still able to book it to the subway if he starts talking about crypto.

The outfit isn’t really for them — it’s for you. So we asked the Cut’s editors what they actually reach for. Most of us aren’t pulling from some aspirational Pinterest board — we’re reaching for the tried-and-true pieces that we wear all the time. And whether the night ends in a cab ride, a sleepover, or a screenshot sent straight to the group chat, these are the pieces that always show up — even when the date doesn’t.
