Opposite of "sartorial"

Hi

Is the word sartorial fairly common among native speakers? 

Sartorial elegance
Succumb to sartorial impulses, etc

And what about its antonym? Does it have one?

Thanks,

Tom

The only time I use it is with elegance, and then it is usually tongue-in-cheek.
It means pertaining to tailoring or style of clothing, so I don't think it has an antonym ("not pertaining to style of clothing").
If you wanted to say that someone's clothing is not stylish you could say frumpy, unstylish, out of style, dated, outdated, passé, etc.
