Dressing professionally is not important for software development jobs. People at my company wear a wide range of clothing, and I haven't seen anyone making an issue of it.

Usually dressing professionally refers to standards that are quite different from that, so if one wants to say that they're checking for things like that it would be best to make that clear.
