Good observations,
Layering of tops seems to be in, I like low cut fronts because it helps my passing image.
Wig wise yes something less of a beacon, and pants.... You can do well by steering away from jeans.
I like low heeled calf length boots as well.
I can agree with the skirt ratio also as I have been caught out in a skirt and I am the only one pantless
Loved your survey.
