street clothes

Non-uniform casual attire

Street clothes are ordinary civilian attire—what someone wears in everyday life outside of work or specialized settings.

The term appears most often in contrast to uniforms, costumes, or athletic gear: The nurse changed into street clothes after her shift.

Actors in street clothes are out of costume; athletes in street clothes aren't playing.
