Workplace Fashion Tips for Men

What men wear to work can make or break a first impression for bosses, coworkers, and clients. A man who looks professional and put together at work will impress others in the office. These are some tips for helping men to decide what to wear in the workplace.

Make sure clothes are clean and neat. Crisp, clean clothing is always crucial for looking professional and stylish. No one will want to see a boss or coworker wearing a dirty, wrinkly shirt, so everyone should make sure that there are no stains or wrinkles on their clothing before getting dressed for work.

Avoid sloppy clothing. It may be tempting to throw on a pair of sweatpants and a hoodie. However, looking presentable in professional clothing will go a long way and make employees and bosses appear more diligent about their work, even if they work from home.


Avoid wearing anything involving sports or workouts. It can be tempting for people to wear the clothes they will be wearing to the gym after work to their jobs; however, it is best to dress professionally and change into those clothes after the workday is over. Looking overly sporty at work will come across as unprofessional.

Make sure that clothes fit. Overly tight or baggy clothing is not appropriate for the workplace. Men should make sure to purchase pieces that fit their bodies well without exposing too much skin or looking too oversized.

Dress up without overdoing it. No one should ever underdress for work. Showing up to an office in distressed jeans and a t-shirt will always make a terrible impression and come across as not taking the job seriously. Men should be sure to dress appropriately, but not overdressing to the point where they will be distracting others. For example, wearing a tuxedo to many jobs would be overdressing.

Follow the dress codes. It is crucial to respect and follow any dress code that the office may require. Even if these rules do not align with someone’s style, refusing to follow these rules will come across as disrespectful and even rude. Following these tips will help any man look appropriate and stylish for the workplace.


How to Make Inexpensive Suits Look Expensive

Whether it's worn once a year or every day, owning a suit is an important part of being a professional. Owning a suit doesn't actually need to be expensive, especially with these tricks to make any suit look significantly better.

Wear the Right Colors Wearing a suit is about being dressed well and isn't necessarily about the price of the clothing. Choose a suit that looks good on the wearer in an attractive color and pattern. Then, accent the suit with socks, shoes, a tie, and a shirt that all complement the suit's preexisting color palette. Monochromatic palettes are easy to pull off, so try wearing all-grey, all-black, or all-navy. Another option is to use a theme like cool tones, contrasting colors, or any other style that


strikes the wearer's fancy and fits within the options available. Don't be afraid to try out a uniquely patterned tie, especially if it's for a casual event.

Use a Steam Cleaner A well-pressed cheap suit looks better than a wrinkled and expensive one. Instead of messing with a hot iron every morning, try investing in a handheld steam cleaner. Hang the suit off of a wall hook or a rack. Then, use a combination of steam and gravity to smooth out all of the wrinkles. One of the mistakes that many people make when steam-cleaning a garment is that they forget to give it time to dry. The room that the suit is in needs to have good ventilation so that the humidity does not linger and gives the fabric a smell.

Visit a Tailor Something that many people don't realize is that suit alterations are relatively expensive. For around $100-$200, most tailors will adjust a suit to fit the wearer's frame. Buying a cheap suit and having it fitted is often a more economical choice, and it will look better than a nice suit that hasn't been adjusted. For a bit of extra flair, ask your tailor to replace the suit buttons with more interesting ones. Metal buttons will look bright and professional, while colored buttons can give a suit a relaxed and casual appearance. Suits look nice when they fit the wearer, are well-maintained, and are worn with style. Whether you buy a cheap suit or invest in something more expensive, keep it looking good to look like a professional.
