I think anyone who's worked in the business side of a bank knows you don't turn up on a floor where clients meet their clients wearing combats and a ripped T-Shirt.
I would, in fact I worked at RBS in t-shirt, jeans and trainers.
I always ask in an interview if there's a dress code and if there is, I thank them and leave/hang up the phone.
It's still direction and control though, regardless of whether you think a bank should be exempt.

What's the problem? I prefer casual but having to wear a tie is small beer.
It isn't an IR35 indicator either. Unless perhaps you actually tell Hector that you really want to wear casual clothes but your boss won't let you, and even then I doubt Hector has sartorial elegance on his list of indicators.
Contractor lesson number one: Turn up looking like sh1t and the client will think you are sh1t
Turn up in a suit and you get away with anything
The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”
Basic human (animal) psychology.
Duh * knuckle scraping * uh.. person.. different.. kill.. not one of us.. etc.
A bit like football supporters really.
Of course, but you have to play the game
