Corporate Attire tips for Men
Most organizations expect their employees to dress well. One needs to dress appropriately as per the work culture for a pleasing personality. It is not necessary that you have to wear your business suits daily to work. A crisp white shirt teamed with a black well fit trouser can give you that desired professional look. Never wear casuals to work. Dressing formally helps to create the right professional image.
Tips to dress correctly at work.
Neutral colors such as blue, grey, white, khaki, black are guaranteed hits in a corporate setting. Avoid wearing party shirts to work. Do not wear loud colors or patterns that are too bold. Subtle colors look good in offices. Plain shirts are always in style but you can also go for shirts in stripes, checks or micro-checks. Colors such as red, yellow, orange usually are not preferred to be worn at the workplace.
Polka dots shirts or shirts with sequins are a strict no-no in organizations. Avoid wearing short sleeves to work. Full sleeves shirts look professional. Make sure your sleeves touch the base of your hand. Do not roll up sleeves at work. Take care of the fit of the trouser. Slim fit or flat front trousers in solid colors such as grey, black, blue look best at workplaces. Avoid baggy trousers as one looks lazy and sloppy in the same. Your shirt should not be too tight. You should be able to button your shirt properly without any gaps. Clothing should be clean, wrinkle free and ironed.
Shoes should be polished. Prefer dark leather shoes (Black or Brown). Wear dark colored socks to work. Do not wear sports shoes or sneakers to work.
Avoid wearing chunky necklaces or too many bracelets to work. Remove all other rings except your wedding ring. If you wear an earring, remove it immediately. Tattoos and body piercings are not at all acceptable in a professional environment.
If you have a moustache, make sure it is neatly trimmed. Do not attend office with beard unless and until there is an emergency.
Remember, your tie should complement your overall look. Silk ties are always a safe bet. Do not wear ties in loud colors or jazzy patterns. The tip of your tie should touch your belt buckles.
Hair should be neatly combed for a professional look. Short hair looks best in offices.
Avoid wearing strong cologne or perfume. You don’t need to tell others that you have arrived at work.
Avoid chewing gums at work. It looks completely unprofessional.
Do not wear flashy belts with broad buckles. Wear leather belts in dark colors preferably black or brown.
Do not carry a thick wallet or keep your car keys in pocket as it creates an asymmetrical bulge under your clothes.
