What 2 wear?
What 2 wear?
What you wear is how you present yourself to the world. In hospitality your appearance is important and at the Hotel Management School Maastricht the dress code is introduced at your very first day. But what do the leaders of today need to wear?

Inge Verhaegh [F 1992] and Roel Wolbrink [F 1994] have experience in fashion and share their tips for today’s leaders.
1 Power suit or men suit
Wear a suit to make a positive, lasting and bold impression.
2 Go for quality
In the case of humanity choose wisely and go for a sustainable choice; just quality, less and better.
3 Details matter
Go for a distinctive personal touch: either a belt, shoes, bag, hair, nails, make up. But please keep it clean and sober.
4 Provide good basics
Nice clean white shirt or flowing blouse etc. Go for contrast or not at all.
5 Comfortable
Choose an outfit that feels comfortable so you can move around.
6 And blend in to stand out
Leave prints and logo’s to other people. You are your own brand. Adapt your outfit (a bit) to the business you are working in.
