If their dress is inappropriate HR would likely have the first say. If your coworkers are representing themselves professionally in the community and HR doesn't have a problem with what they are wearing I would let it go. Many people have negative opinions for all kinds of stereotypes, I'm not sure it's a good idea to go down the path of trying to anticipate all of them. For example, I might encounter a man who thinks a woman has no place in the work force. Perhaps I should stay at home lest it send a negative message about my employer.

Are you worried about your company or about yourself?
