But lately it\u2019s become a phrase that also chimes with employers \u2013 albeit repurposed to \u201cyou\u2019re not coming in dressed like that?\u201d \u2013 as they struggle to accept what some employees now consider suitable work wear.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">To some extent this is another legacy of the pandemic. People got used to dressing as they pleased when working from home, and if the urban myths are to be believed some didn\u2019t bother with day clothes at all and were happily turning up on zoom in their furry dressing gowns.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">We\u2019re told that productivity didn\u2019t suffer during the lockdown, which suggests that what people wear while working is irrelevant. However, this preference for more casual dress, largely driven by the tech sector, has become a bone of contention for organisations that want their employees to look professional. It\u2019s also proving difficult to get dress code expectations across to the 20-somethings who were recruited remotely during Covid and who spent the first few years of their working lives in their PJs.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cPeople used to have work wear and casual wear, they were quite separate and the distinction was clear. Now there\u2019s more of a flow from one to the other with no guardrails, and people are finding this difficult to navigate. As a result they\u2019re looking for advice on what to wear for work much more than before,\u201d says Laura Jordan, founder of style and image consultancy StyleSavvy.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">What seems to be working for some businesses is a policy of dressing for what the day involves. If it\u2019s a meeting with a client who expects a sombre suit, then wear one. If it\u2019s a less formal meeting that still needs an air of professionalism then it\u2019s acceptable to lose the tie or the carefully arranged scarf, to go more casual and choose from a wider colour palette.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cA tailored jacket can be dressed down with a T-shirt and jeans or chinos for an informal day or dressed up with a shirt or blouse and tailored trousers or a tailored skirt for a more formal setting,\u201d Jordan says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">Communicating what\u2019s required in terms of working attire can be tricky in the absence of formalised rules, and this is why Jordan advises companies to prepare a dress policy that covers all the bases. To remove any ambiguity visuals of what is and isn\u2019t okay should be included. For example, designer trainers may be acceptable but beaten up runners are not. \u201cOften it\u2019s not the item itself that\u2019s the problem, but the condition it\u2019s in,\u201d Jordan says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cDressing for work has become a bit of a minefield which is why it\u2019s important to bring as much clarity as possible to what\u2019s expected. If you\u2019re not sure what to include in a dress code get professional help to draft it,\u201d Jordan suggests.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cHaving a defined policy makes things more objective and takes away the personal and finger-wagging element if a problem arises. What can also help is to give employees image training to create an awareness around dress if that\u2019s something that matters to an organisation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">Business formal is largely out, says Jordan, who adds that she\u2019s hardly seen a tie in any situation since Covid. And with this shift away from formality she is advising her male clients to buy two pairs of trousers for every jacket as jackets get worn so little now.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cThe prevailing look is smart casual. However, there is some confusion as to what that means. It means half-tailoring as in a tailored jacket worn with chinos or good quality dark washed jeans or a pair of tailored trousers worn with a casual shirt, top or jumper. That\u2019s the theory but then there\u2019s a whole spectrum when it comes to what constitutes a \u2018suitable\u2019 top or jumper whereas the traditional work shirt or blouse was easy to understand.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cShoes also matter. There\u2019s a big difference between nice loafers that look smart and dirty gym shoes that don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">Asked for her top tips on dressing for the office, Jordan says: \u201cFor guys clean polished shoes not worn at the heels. Go easy on colourful socks as they can be an unwanted distraction in some situations. Shirts should be clean and ironed and hair well cut. When buying shirts test the fabric by scrunching it up and avoid those that crease too easily.<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">\u201cFor women choose your shoes carefully as they can have a big impact on your look. If you\u2019re wondering if a skirt or dress is appropriate put your hands by your sides and see where your middle finger touches your leg \u2013 that\u2019s the shortest it should be. It\u2019s the measure they apply in the American school system and these kinds of tools outsource opinion, so it becomes protocol not personal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">Jordan says she often gets a frosty reception when she goes into companies to talk style. \u201cPeople think I\u2019m there to tell them how to dress and they get defensive. But that\u2019s not what it\u2019s about. What I\u2019m trying to do is to ensure that how someone dresses doesn\u2019t stop them from getting a job or promotion. So it\u2019s about making sure there\u2019s nothing going on that might be impacting their pathway towards achieving their career goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"default__StyledText-sc-1nhbny4-0 gVsmvl body-paragraph paywall\">Asked for her final piece of advice, Jordan says: \u201cJust because you can wear what you want doesn\u2019t mean you should.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cYou\u2019re not going out dressed like that?\u201d has long been the horrified cry of parents whose offspring\u2019s attire fails to meet their approval.
