How many shabbos outfits, simcha wear and evening wear for weddings do you have/need?

That you currently wear, that fit you, for this season

Nursing, so I have two nursing dresses, one buttondown dress, and one shirt/skirt dressy outfit. It feels very limiting! I'm trying to compensate with new mitpachat styles.

I have a Shabbos robe, 2 casual Shabbos outfits and 2 nicer ones that can be worn to a simcha

I probably have 7-10, but that includes winter and summer outfits. Also, I have worn the same size for years, so some of the outfits are a few years old, but still look good on me.

I have about 4 dresses I wear both cold and hot temperatures. In winter I add a sweater.
I dont own any simcha/evening wear.
Thankfully in my circles in israel, I wear what I wear on shabbat. As everyone else does.

I definitely have at least 20 nice dresses. I don't buy a new wardrobe for each season or anything, I just accumulate clothing when I see something I really love and want to buy, so over the years it adds up. I've been the same size since college and don't follow the current specific trend/fad or whatever, I just buy pretty things that look good on me.

I have 1 dress that I can wear for weddings.

Its black but its dressy.

It isnt current though but I like to think its classy.

I have 2 -3 shabbos outfits, depending on the fit.

I really dont enjoy shopping for new clothes.
I almost always have to get things altered to fit me.

I wish we could go back in time to getting our clothes made for us.
Then Id always look good! (One can dream...)

I have around 7-10 Shabbos dresses/outfits. A few from least years and I added a few more this season.

I do not have much wedding wear though. Maybe one dress. Need to get more as I have a few Simchas coming up.

I have an embarrassing amount of clothing, but I buy pretty classic lines and wear things for years.

No option for me in your poll:
ZERO

I am pregnant 35 weeks and don't have any maternity Shabbos clothes that still fit me. I bought two things that should have been good for this season, but I outgrew them Pesach time... All I wear is a robe. When that robe got dirty (vomit from a toddler), I put on my maternity winter robe. I have a wedding next week which I will skip, not only because I don't have what to wear (technically I can borrow something), but because I am so huge that I just cannot go out like this, sit for an hour in the car and walk around a packed wedding hall. Most days now find me on my birthing ball or in bed.
