Do you have a "pulling" outfit?

    I was browsing Facebook with a friend of mine the other day when I remarked that a girl she knows had a nice top on, in a photo.
    She replied "Ohh yes, that's her pulling top. It makes her boobs look great, so she used to wear it whenever she wanted to score someone."

    With this in mind, do you have a particular outfit you like to wear out, to snare the preferred sex? Do you have a certain item of clothing that's brought you good luck?

    I don't think I've ever had a pulling outfit at all. I just wear what I think looks good, get a second opinion from some friends then head out! I'd be interested to see if many people consciously have a set outfit, or item of clothing, that they know impresses or "works on" their preferred sex.

    As long as I am NOT wearing a shirt and I am feeling confident I am likely to score.

    Rarely do I score when wearing a shirt. I am more a Shorts and T-shirt all year round type of guy anyway!!!

    ahhh so odd me and my mate were talking about this a while ago

    I don't have one.I love wearing something new :)

    I do find any kind of boots or a pencil skirt wind up getting me quite a bit of attention tho :) Was out with my BF on Friday night got come onto about 5 times convinced it was the boots he was mighty impressed!

    Like yourself OP I wear what suits me and always get a second opinion.

    I used to have a friend who had a "pulling dress" it was horrible and in the several times I went out with her in this pyjama like dress she never pulled!!

    I was going to say 'something décolleté all the way'. But I complained in another thread about men talking to my breasts, so I can't. :p

    Me too, actually.

    Men seem to be total suckers for knee-high boots. I have a few pairs, wear them with jeans, as a casual going out outfit.

    Right here:o

    Me and pulling dont really go together so I always wear what im comfortable in ie. nothing with a collar.Ive a weirdly long neck so they make me feel kinda confined :confused:

    Classic!
    I actually rarely want to show off cleavage on a night out, they just ... come out to play! It's very annoying. I think I'm one of these people who'd have cleavage in a hoodie. I can't hide the damn things!

    Nahh....I dress for myself. Which is probably evident by the state of me.
    Shiney makes me happy :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,355 ✭✭✭dyl10


    Call me weird, but what a girl is wearing isn't/hasn't really ever been anything close to a deciding factor for me, on a night out.

    As long as it's not god awful, you're probably on to a winner ;)

    I don't exactly have a 'pulling outfit' but I dress pretty sharp going out (and in general, as much as I can) cos I like to feel like I'm looking well. When I'm going on dates etc though, I generally ask my boss (slash best mate) what she reckons I should wear. She always chooses the same 3 outfits (1 geek-chic and 2 that show off my 'pecs' :P) and I'm generally happy enough with her decisions! When in doubt, I just ask my sister.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,750 ✭✭✭liah


    I used to but I don't anymore. And it wasn't really much of a variation on my regular clothes, was just skinny jeans with knee-highs then my usual-- a nice top and a leather jacket.

    Now I just go out in my usual clothes, which is generally a pair of (sometimes ripped) jeans and a pair of converse hi-tops. Works for me.

    Wearing a bikini with hair tossed out on the beach, poolside, or in a beach bar generally works for me. Also, that sporty look in shorts, half-T with tummy showing, ball cap, shades, and pony.

    If I wear mismatched, ill fitting grey undies and don't shave my legs or get my bikini line done I always score!!!!

    Bloody sods law.

    I even said it a few weeks ago. Said to my friend "I'm wearing magic knickers and haven't shaved my legs. I'm bound to pull" and sure enough........He didn't seem to care though!

    You're female, if you want to score it generally doesn't matter how you look.

    Totally. love the type that tracvel up just below the knees. Short skirt and black stockings. Yum yum!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,160 ✭✭✭✭banshee_bones


    uhh i dont know, its usually the sods law thing that works for me, Its always that one night where your probably not dressed up because a) it was only supposed to be ONE quiet drink or b) you end up when you were NOT planning to atall! and of course it will be that one night your hair isnt perfectly straightened, you havent shaved your legs and its laundry day! :P

    However.... I do have a black dress,when paired with my black red or deal metal heeled stilletos...well it always worked on one guy in the past and in general generated a lot of turned heads :pac:

    That happened me recently. I went for one drink in jeans, ugg boots and a black cardigan, ended up hooking up with someone! I was pretty impressed with myself, I looked dreadful! :P
