The racket that most restaurants run around here for brunch, which is just a way for them to add to their margins by serving food that mostly consists of eggs and pre-mixed bloody marys, doesn’t demand much more sartorially. Your second point is understandable though. Some girls at UVA who ran with a certain crowd would wear sweatpants with nice polo shirts, which sort of defeats their effortless functionality by making them part of some bizarre “look.”

When they are worn to a restaurant, the wearer appears to either (1) not care how s/he looks (2) want to parlay sweatpants into restaurant-appropriate, possibly stylish attire.

There’s no reason grunge/lounge cannot be appreciated, as long as it’s consciously loungey.

I mean, brunch is an underappreciated opportunity to flaunt the latest trends in loungewear. All those girls who wore their sweats to class in college have to have some use for them in the real world, and it’s tragic that they should not be lauded for their continuing superior sense of grunge/lounge fashion.
