Dress for Success (by Lydia Ramsey)

Try going to a busy restaurant at lunchtime. Look around you at what people are wearing and see if you don't make judgments about who they are, their line of business, their personalities and their competencies. Think about how you feel when you are dressed in your usual business attire as opposed to casual dress. Your choice of business apparel speaks to your professional behaviour and credibility. It is important to understand how to dress for business if you wish to promote yourself and your organization in a positive manner. How you dress depends on four factors: the industry in which you work, the job you have within that industry, the geographic area in which you live; and most importantly, what your clients expect to see.

Here are some guidelines for both genders to consider:

In men's clothing, fashion does not change significantly from season to season but business attire has to be professional and not just fashionable.

Choose a conservative suit in navy, black or gray either pinstripe or solid. The quality of the material speaks as loudly as the colour. A solid white or blue shirt with long sleeves offers the most polished look.

Ties should be made of silk or a silk-like fabric. Avoid the cartoon characters and choose simple and subtle if you want to enhance your credibility.

Socks should be calf-length or above. Make sure they match not only what you are wearing, but also each other. Shoes should without question be conservative, clean and well polished. Don't think for a minute that people don’t notice shoes. Many people will look at your feet before your face. Belts need to match or closely coordinate with your shoes. Once again, quality counts. Keep jewellery to a minimum. The business professional should limit himself to a conservative watch, a wedding band and maybe his college ring.

Personal hygiene is part of your success. The finishing touch for the businessman is his choice of accessories: briefcase, portfolio and pen.

The same overall rules apply to women's work attire. A woman should be noticed for who she is and her professional skills rather than for what she wears. Her business wear should be appropriate for her industry and her position or title within the industry. Here are some suggestions:

Start with a skirted suit or pants suit for the most conservative look. A skirted suit is the most professional. Skirts should be knee-length or slightly above or below. Avoid extremes. Pants should break at the top of the foot or shoe. Blouses and sweaters provide colour and variety to woman's clothing, but they should be appealing rather than revealing_. Inappropriate necklines and waistlines can give the wrong impression.

Women need to wear hose in the business world. Neutral or flesh-tone tights are the best choices. Choose conservative shoes. A low heel is more professional than flats or high heels

When it comes to accessories and jewellery, keep it simple: one ring per hand, one earring per ear. Accessories should reflect your personality, not diminish your credibility.

Business attire is different from weekend and evening wear. Investing in a good business wardrobe is an investment in your professional future. Business skills and experience count, but so does personal appearance.
