They were initially intened to cover shirt buttons, which were seen as utilitarian and unattractive.

By that logic I guess all my buttonless t-shirts now count as formal attire OK, I admit it, I'm one of the fashion-challenged, heathens that believes who I am should be more important that what I wear and that what I'm wearing should reflect the respect that I have for the people at whatever event I'm attending. To that end I'll dress nicely for a wedding or a nice restaurant. I'd also have no problem showing up to the whitehouse in a stained wife-beeter and the pair of shorts from the back of my closet with a whole in the croch and no left butt cheek (but I'd at least wear boxers underneath).
