The TVTropes Trope Finder is where you can come to ask questions like "Do we have this one?" and "What's the trope about...?" Trying to rediscover a long lost show or other medium but need a little help? Head to Media Finder and try your luck there. Want to propose a new trope? You should be over at You Know, That Thing Where.

What's not covered by Dork in a Sweater?
"In fiction, a character who wears sweaters frequently is often some variety of nerd, otherwise Adorkable, or at least approachable and non-threatening."

Mentioned in Hidden Buxom, although as you probably know I think that trope should be reworked.

^^ They're not dorky, they're insecure.

Dorky doesn't exclusively mean nerdy. I think Dork in a Sweater covers it.

Is there a trope for shy and insecure characters dressing in baggy clothes like sweaters and hoodies? Sweater Girl is for fanservice, not shyness, and Dork in a Sweater is for nerds.
