Christ sakes, now my mother is in on it.  She asked what I was planning to wear on the flight.  I said I wasn't sure and hadn't thought about it.  She indicated that I need to wear slacks in case of an accident and we need to make an emergency departure.

Wear lots of bling baby!!  Just take the zero gauge out before you get to the security check or you may be delayed a bit.  

Edit:  My bad... its gauge not gage.

What's a zero gage?  Is that another gay thing I never learned? ;D

Slacks? As opposed to what, a skirt? What were you planning to wear? And what kind of accident? The plane going down or one of a more personal nature? In that case I don't think slacks or a skirt are going to make much difference except the skirt is going to draw more attention. Maybe she meant take extra slacks in case you have an accident. I remember one of my grandmothers was always telling us to wear clean underwear in case we were in an accident. She said the first thing they do in the hospital is take your clothes off and everyone would then know if you weren't wearing clean underwear.

yes, she's right. There were several reports out (yrs ago) that showed that people wearing long pants, long sleeves and non-nylon blends fare better in case of accidents, be they in cars or planes. Nylon-blend, rather than cotton-blend, clothing will melt in the heat of fire and stick to a person causing worse burns. Long pants and long sleeves will protect more from abrasions of flying debris or rough treatment. (same way jeans and a jacket protect a motorcyclist more from "road rash" during a accident)

Wear long pants, a long-sleeve t-shirt, and sturdy, comfortable, lace-up shoes. Although you may want to be comfortable or professional-looking on a flight, sandals or high heels make it hard to move quickly within the wreckage. High heels are not allowed on the evacuation slides and you can cut your feet and toes on glass or get flammable liquids on or in your sandals if you wear them.

Loose or elaborate clothing also poses a risk, as it can get snagged on obstacles in the close confines of a plane. If you know you’re going to be flying over cold areas, dress appropriately, and consider keeping a jacket on your lap. You’ll need to be able to stay warm if you survive the crash. Even if that is not a consideration, the more of your body is covered during impact, the less likely you are to receive serious injuries or burns. Cotton or wool clothing is also preferable as it is less flammable. Wool is preferable to cotton when flying over water, as wool does not lose its insulating properties to the degree cotton does when wet.

Eat lots of garlic so that when you're being consumed by others... the meat will not need any seasoning.
