I wash all my clothing after wearing them once, except perhaps a sweater if I've worn it over a shirt. Even then I still wash it the next time I wear it. Often people don't realize they smell because they are used to their own odor. Maybe this explains why I've noticed some people smell, they aren't washing their clothing regularly. Whatever. I have good quality bras that have lasted a few years from being washed in a bag on the delicate cycle.

You wash/dry clean your coats after each wearing as well?
Do you wash or have your wool & silk suits and/or dress pants or skirts cleaned after each wearing?
I'm like UnexpectedError, many of my garments do not get washed after each wear. My premium denim, cashmere sweaters/wraps/dresses, silk blouses/skirts/dresses and bras are not washed after every wear unless there's an obvious stain/odor or I know I was sweating in them. Panties, cotton shirts, casual denim, socks, cotton shorts, etc. are a different story. They take the frequent washing better.
For me, a lot of it comes down to 1. how long I was wearing it, 2. what was I doing in it and 3. the type of textile and structure of the garment...is it meant to be cleaned frequently?
I'd say for most folks who practice good hygiene, body odor (or clothing odor) is a non-issue.
