A dress shirt likely has a pleated front, possibly pique. The collar may be laid down or recently wingtips have come back into vogue.
There are always those who like to push the meaning of words. They have no idea the damage they do. When words cease to have meanings there also ceases to be any way to communicate. The problems we so often experience on this forum are only a small symptom of that.
The idea that "I'll do as I d___ well please" in some cultures is a major weakness and error that cuts us adrift, isolates, and separates us one from one another. It isn't freedom; it is a failure to cooperate that in fact becomes a new kind of prison. What a loss from large egos.
