It is unconstitutional, as there is no important governmental interest that would sanction prohibiting expression.
LOL, no what's unconstitutional is almost everything your boss is doing in the White House. An ordinance prohibiting thuglets from forcing the rest of us to look at their ugly, unclean, sweaty aszcracks is not unconstitutional.
Let's review:
CONSTITUTIONAL = reasonable restrictions on public conduct like this ordinance
UNCONSTITUTIONAL = forcing people to purchase insurance, data-mining the entire country's telephone metadata, wiretapping the AP's phone lines; swearing out an affidavit about James Rosen that says he's a criminal co-conspirator; running automatic weapons to the leaders of Mexican drug cartels; using the IRS to target people because of their political opinions; and almost anything else Barack Obama and Eric Holder do.
Private places can post "no shirt, no service" signs. The constitution, except for the 13th Amendment, is a limitation on government. There is a 1st Amendment too, but that doesn't stop your mother from demanding that you shut up.
The government in an effort to restrict speech rights must have a compelling governmental interest.
I find it hilarious that you claim the constitution limits government power in this regard, yet you have never one time uttered a word of criticism for the federal government and its absolute TRASHING of the Constitutional limitations you're talking about.

Are we clear yet?
I assume you think a federal law where everyone dresses the same would work & penalize anyone who disobeys.
Does anyone want to address why there are dress codes in PUBLIC court rooms? Any takers? Is that also unconstitutional in your eyes?
Courtrooms are government buildings.
