Answer 1

Here he is at home with his wife:

No suit .... but then I suppose he's not actually relaxing in this photo.

He's definately not wearing a suit in this picture either (snigger):

I did discover that he wears home made pjs ... however can't find him anywhere in anything but a suit, polo outfit or a kilt.

Though, apparently he did once take fashion tips from Gareth Gates

Hmm

Answer 2

I am pretty sure he will dress formal, but not always in suits. There was an interview on TV with the royal family and he was there without suits and tie but still polished shoes.
I am not a fan of any Royals, but I think most royals have made very good efforts in keeping their appearances in front of public. They were born models!

Answer 3

Prince Charles' job is to represent the royal family and the UK properly, so when he is doing that job he is very formal and dressed respectably.

However in his spare time he runs an organic farm - when he is on the farm he wears rubber boots, woollen jumpers, a tweed jacket and a flat cap. You see him on telly sometimes when they show his farm (Highgrove). They also sell produce under the Duchy Originals name.

I think we can assume that he wears what ever makes him comfortable when he is at home

Answer 4

No he doesn't. He quite enjoys wearing chinos and polo shirts at home. Much to Camilla's disgust. Even when he's dressed he isn't always wearing a suit. He often wears a kilt. Or riding breeches.

Answer 5

Whenever he is 'on show' he is dressed by others as he has an image to uphold but at home, after a rough day, I bet he looks just like the rest of us, crumpled and comfy in his fave tracky bums and slippers - bet Camilla is too!

Answer 6

No. At home he wears a pink dressing gown and a kilt. With fluffy bunny slippers. Creates an interesting visual image, huh?

Answer 7

Sometimes he uses a skirt like the Scotish people, also when playing polo or hunting he uses the adequate outfit, so in the garden with his organic plants, in the bedroom pijamas.

Answer 8

I think that when he's absolutely certain there is nobody watching he slips into a ben sherman shirt, tracky bottoms, rockport boots and pops on a burberry cap.

Answer 9

He is no different from any other man, he wears whatever his wife gets out for him. That's` why you always see him looking fairly respectable, left to himself, he would be wearing odd socks and have his shirt tail hanging out.

Answer 10

How can any of us know the answer to that? I'd imagine that he'll change into his pj's and dressing gown at home. Just like we all do!
