Daniel Radcliffe used this to his advantage---same outfit, and the paparazzi stopped bothering him:

It was three or four months. Because I was doing a play in London and every night there was paparazzi outside. And I suddenly realized after like after I just had just been lazy and not changed my clothes for a few days, that they were not there. And I realized it’s probably because I’m wearing the same thing so it all looks like photos from the same day. So I was like ‘I’ll just continue wearing this.’ And they never came back because it all looks like the same picture in front of the same door.

I love how they point out that it's not hygienic...like you can't buy the same set and own a fucking washing machine...

Also if it's like a jacket or something, you don't wash that every day anyway, you wash it 2-3 times a winter. I don't wash my jeans too often either, and usually when I do, they're dry by next morning...

Yep, especially if you're wearing it for a few hours a week at most and just walking around. Hell I know farmers who won't wash canvas jackets but like 2 times a year because it's just gonna get dirty on the outside again in a day and it'll eventually ruin any water resistance it has.
