The use of underpants over boxer shorts is commented on by the show's creators on the Series 4 DVD, where he says they were trying to be different as boxer shorts were the least taboo form of underwear on TV as they showed "less of a bulge". Bart's underwear style is of white "underpants". The only other clothing "scenario" that comes up regularly is his "bed outfit", which consists of a green pyjama set (although he has been known to wear white socks on his feet to bed, he more regularly goes barefoot to bed). His churchgoing outfit consists of a blue two-piece suit (with shorts rather than long pants), white shirt, blue tie and blue shoes (colour of socks, if any, is unknown).

His normal attire is an orange t-shirt, blue shorts, white socks and blue training shoes. Bart's dress sense is fairly standard. He is also known as Bartman.

Various explinations for his behavior include genetics (the male-linked 'Simpson Stupidity' gene), environment (watching and emulating Homer's bad examples), disinterest of his school's faculty, and a general dim view of authority. While Bart is considerably undermotivated and takes great joy in disrupting the routine at Springfield Elementary, his actions and speech frequently show considerable mental agility and understanding, and so he cannot be called "stupid" per se.
