Dress Code

There is a huge difference between an individual’s college and professional life. One needs to
follow a proper dress code at the workplace for the desired impact. It is essential to dress
appropriately at the workplace for an everlasting impression. Individuals who dress shabbily
are never taken seriously at work. One must dress as per the occasion. Avoid wearing jeans,
capris, shorts, T - Shirts or sleeveless dresses to work. Follow a professional dress code.
Make sure you feel comfortable in whatever you wear. It is not always necessary to wear
expensive clothes rather wear something which looks good on you. Choose professional
colours like black, blue, brown, grey for official attire. Bright colours look out of place in
corporates. Light and subtle colours exude elegance and professionalism and look best in
offices. Make sure your clothes are clean and ironed. One should never go shabbily dressed to
work.
Male Employees

● The shirt should be properly tucked into the trouser for the professional look. Prefer full
sleeves shirts at workplace. Never roll up your sleeves
● Silk ties look best on professionals. Don’t go for designer ties. The tie should neither be
too short nor too long. The tip of the tie ideally should touch the bottom of the belt
buckle. Slim ties are not meant for offices
● Socks must be well coordinated with the outfit.
● ▪ Shave daily. Use a good after shave lotion and make sure your skin does not look dry
and flaky
● Body odour is a big turn off. One must always smell good in public. Use a mild perfume
or deodorant.
Female Employees

● Females should not wear revealing clothes to work. Avoid wearing outfits which
expose much of your body parts. Wear clothes which fit you best. Don’t wear too tight
or loose clothes
● Females who prefer westerns can opt for light coloured shirts with dark well fitted
trousers. A scarf makes you look elegant.
● Never wear heavy jewellery to work. Avoid being a makeup box. Nude make up does
wonders. Nails should be trimmed and prefer natural shades for nail paint.
● Avoid wearing sharp pointed heels to work
● Eyebrow, naval, lip piercing must be avoided at the workplace.
