OP, you cannot make generalizations like this. All women are different. Get it?

The differences are blatant. I get way more eye contact from women when I'm well-dressed, often repeatedly from girls who are with their dork boyfriends. Women are also more excited to talk to me, even when my energy is low, which usually hurts my game. From the initial interaction to sex, there's a huge difference that isn't just coming from the confidence of looking good.

I've had great experiences looking like a dirty slob too, but it feels like throwing a half-court shot compared to the way girls have looked at me like a piece of meat when I'd dress like a Hollywood actor.

Women will be more likely to assume a well-dressed guy is cool and attractive to other women than the guy looking like a bum. It's probably much less common for an attractive, well-dressed women to throw herself at a guy who looks sloppy. Even when women aren't around, it just feels better to dress well. It's depressing being around trashy-looking people.

People are never ugly, they're just lazy.

I had to wear a suit yesterday and the difference in attention was clear.

It helps because I feel extremely comfortable wearing a nice suit and tie. I was asked on more than one occasion what I do because I came off as comfortable. I think because of my choice of attire, my confidence level increased a great deal. Since women can smell that like a 6th sense, it gave me more attention.

So, feeling confident in how you're dressed goes hand in hand with more attention.

It really sucks because I saw a beautiful girl at the bar last night but she was there for work stuff with her homely boyfriend. She kept glancing at me and she was one of the most beautiful girls I've seen. I was very disappointed.

The clothes do not need to be expensive, they need to fit the mans body well and match/co-ordinate well.

It's not rocket science and I am sure men feel the same about a woman's attire.

Absolutely true.

Speaking for myself as a woman, I'm not at all attracted by designer clothes or suits. That's because unlike many women, I'm just not an indoor person or city person or at all interested in fashion. I AM attracted by nice casual clothes or outdoor wear as that makes me think the wearer has interests somewhat like mine.

So what you should do is wear what YOU like and reflects your own style (presuming it is neat and clean) and you are more likely to attract those who share similar values / interests.

The price of clothes does not directly matter to me. I do like a guy who has good personal style, but my idea of "good" may not match others'. Some elements of style specifically attract me, but it's definitely not a "make or break" issue. As long as you aren't super "preppy" and/or high maintenance and you have good hygiene, how a guy dresses doesn't really bother me.

Agreed with this. I don't care about name-brand. Hell, even with my own clothes I could find cute nice-looking stuff at Wal-Mart. I can, and have bough clothes from there.

The only thing, clothing-wise that would turn me off

bagging pants, hanging off butt. Tons of jewelry, gold teeth. Any kind of thuggish look. Or sloppy. Wearing clothes with food stains, and/or looking like a bum.

Otherwise, a nice clean pair of pants. And a nice shirt is fine. Long as he looks clean and as Dew said, presentable. In terms of a 1st impression.

Yes.

You can be "put together" without it being expensive. I like a man who takes pride in his appearance to a degree, but it doesn't need to be extreme or flashy.

Lol in my younger days clothes didn't matter so much...
They still don't for the most part--
But I will say I have a new found appreciation for men who know how to dress well.
Something about a man, who cleans up nicely & smells good enough to devour....
I've met quite a few like that in recent months--
Dressed like this & damn near irresistible
