Everyone knows that clothes are significant when you want to make the first impression. This doesn’t mean you can become more intelligent or talented if you wear good appropriate clothing but no one would ever argue on the fact that being overdressed is better than being underdressed. Just remember job interview situations when interviewers know whether they are going to hire you or not even before you open your mouth.
Man’s wardrobe should be as carefully and meticulously selected as the woman’s one. If it is perfect your business can work much better (but don’t rely on clothes only, do work a lot!!!!).
What I like about menswear is that the styles don’t change every season and you don’t need to rush for the last fashion innovations. You can buy something with the confidence of knowing that it’s going to be stylish a number of years and serve you well.
Don’t get hurt, but I am sure that very few men have good fashion judgment. So, to make a smart investment, I believe every man should have a clothing advisor. Traditionally, this person was a tailor, but now we call them clothiers.
To be able to work on a man’s wardrobe, the clothier has to understand his lifestyle, his budget and the way the man wants to express himself. You might not have enough finances to buy everything you need at once, but your advisor will help you to prioritize.
The questions below are the ones the clothier will ask you: What kind of situations do you find yourself in? Do you like trends or prefer a more classic look? Do you like to stand out or stay subtle? Answer them sincerely and your wardrobe will soon transform hugely!
What to wear when you feel unsure of what to wear
There are often situations when you may feel unsure of the garments you need to wear. The best choice is a suit. It shows respect and can never look too pretentiously if you chose severe accessories. The business suit has been with us for over 100 years and always worked. Any woman will tell you that a man looks powerful, authoritative and sexy in a suit.
Avoid buying the same color suits over and over again. To look interesting you need variety. You may own few suits, but if they are of different colors you can look fresh every day of the week.
Ask advice from a good fashion consultant on how to accessorize your look with the right belt, shoes and ties, so you can look new all the time. Fill your wardrobe with several ties of various colors and styles to create fresh looks.
Workplace mistakes
Many men misunderstand the term ‘Business casual’ considering it is nothing else but casual wear, such as jeans or T-shirts. This is not right at all. It means wearing a sports jacket with the right dress trousers and shoes. It’s that kind of wardrobe, called dressy casual, that still shows respect for the workplace.
According to some studies people who wear blue jeans are much less productive than people who dress up for work. So, instead of wearing your favorite denim, try to don a suit with an open-collared shirt. It says “he has the confidence to wear a suit and dress it down.” It says “he is comfortable in his own skin.”
Make your wardrobe functional
Men are often intolerable with their habit to keep all their garments— they never throw anything out. That’s absolutely horrible! If you don’t wear a piece for a year, just give it to charity. Go through your closet and see what you are missing and what you should get rid of. Make your wardrobe functional.
Men wardrobe must-haves
There are some essentials that should belong in every closet. Every man should have a dark, dressy suit, navy or black, that can be dressed up for semi-formal events like weddings. It’s the most versatile suit men need to buy. Match it with a white French-cuff shirt and the right tie.
Purchase a navy or black blazer, and at least one pair of black lace-up dress shoes and a matching belt. Besides, ensure that you have an all-weather coat with a removable liner.
In case you have no time to visit a clothier just follow these tips and your business look will improve significantly! Good luck!
