What happened to the days when authors would wear tailored three-piece suits, ties, and even impressive hats, and sit back with the drink of their choice to dictate their next bestseller to their efficient secretaries

Honestly, to me.. that's what writing attire should look like.
That's what a LOT of work attire should look like. Sitting in offices in a suit is pointless and uncomfortable. At least let people be comfortable when working.
Oh, I do, they also screwed everything they could. I'm not saying the coping mechanisms were great. As a kid, the smart ass doctors in bathrobes just stuck as cool. As an adult, yeah not the best examples for how to deal with horrendous stresses.
Little-known fact about the writer pajama lifestyle, but the bathrobe is actually essential for its pockets. If you don't have a bathrobe, then you have nowhere to stick your phone.

I am here for the robes though. I think it was watching a lot of MASH as a kid. Caring smart asses wear bathrobes over the uniform AS the uniform.
TV did Korean war with alcohol vs Vietnam war with heroin.
