What Women Should And Should Not Wear In The Workplace
Whenever you are dressing for your office or any business event, it becomes easy to swerve off the track. Nowadays, women are making strides in their workplace, still choosing the right workwear for a meeting or a business dinner, or sometimes just company clothing remains a test.
The designers and fashion stylists, always say that executive women almost always makes a collection of mistakes, starting from paying particular attention to the fit to dressing up casually. And the reality is that most of the executive women are still not making it to the top of any list of best dressing anytime soon, even though in today’s world everything rests on the first impression.
Ms. Mary Lou Andre, The head of Organization by Design Quotes “Business clothing is an overlook component in many women’s professional life”.
Ida Liu, who is a director in the fashion retail group at Citibank’s private banking arm, advises women to convey professionalism. She says, “I want to be a trusted adviser to my clients. When they are looking at me I want them to see me as intelligent”.
The worst mistake which a woman often commits is forgetting the audience of the workplace.
Whenever question for dressing for workplace comes, there is never any of such thing as ‘one size fits all’. Your work wear should always compliment your corporate culture. In investment banks, conservative suits or business clothing we can say, are still required and that too in neutral colors. But for someone working in advertising or films, some individuality and creativity is required.
Keep in mind that you have to dress for your company that is giving you salary. Be certain about picking up cues from your work culture.
Do go to your workplace with neatly styled hair. The dress and the shoes should be neat and clean. Doing make up for women is needed, but again what you need to remember is that it should remain subtle.
At the end of the day your work wear should reflect your personality and aspiration.
