italy clothing?

Question

Just want to know what type of clothing is best to bring to italy for holiday at the current moment?

Answer 1

This depends on where you are going in Italy. Temperatures in Rome last week were in the high 60's but mornings and evenings can turn cool. I would recommend nice jeans, or comfortable slacks for sight seeing. Italians are very smart dressers, and you don't want to stick out like a sore thumb with plaid shorts, black socks, a fanny pack, etc. Keep it rather classic and simple. Dress in layers in case the sun gets warm. Please take comfortable walking shoes....smart looking but functional. Look nice for dinner even if you go to a trattoria...a clean shirt and slacks, or even a jacket, not necessarily a tie unless you're dining in a fine ristorante. Take your shades! Guard your personal belongings. Italians are hardly all thieves, but they do seem to come out of the cracks in popular tourist attractions and on the subways. Pack dark colors; you'll look smart and stains from gelato and sauce won't show! Shorts are also frowned upon when entering many churches; so are skimpy tanks. Pack as lightly as you can so you are unencumbered by heavy luggage and have room to bring home souveniers. Happy traveling.

Answer 2

Well, it's pretty warm at the moment but it can get a bit chilly in the morning and evening. I'd bring a sweater or 2 along just in case...an umbrella in case it rains, some jeans and nice shirts/tops, cute dresses (you're a woman right??). Try dressing some what nice....not too formal but not too touristy either. Don't wear white socks with dark-colored pants, cheap Walmart t-shirts, etc......they'll know right away your a tourist. LOL. Oh, and don't wear shorts and flip-flops....Italians only wear these things on the beach.

I live in Italy.
