Women Clothing When it comes to women’s clothing, the golden rule is to dress not only in accordance with your personality, but to your body type as well. Not every fashion will suit every body type, so it is important to understand which style suits you.
53
Formal Women have numerous options. Generally speaking, full-length ball dresses, dinner dresses, shalwar qameez and cocktail dresses of almost any colour are all considered appropriate.
54
Shoes While your shoes don’t necessarily have to match your dress, it is a safe choice if you’re otherwise unsure. If you can’t find a matching colour, opt for the classic black as the next best option. Many women consider high-heels to be the most appropriate footwear for formal occasions; but it is of the utmost importance to be able to walk comfortably. So sandals can be a good option as well.
55
Semi formal While the intention of a semi-formal event is to be slightly less formal, many women still opt to dress more formally than not. The beauty of a semi-formal occasion is that it can be a chance to wear some of your more colourful jewellery and to wear shoes other than high-heels.
56
Casual Casual Casual dress is most often worn to BBQs and informal dinners. Jeans with just about any top should be fine, so long as it is comfortable and tidy. Always use your judgement and never wear something that others may find offensive.
57
CASUAL WORKDAYS AND SPECIAL EVENTS Casual workdays: days when companies relax their dress code Still dress appropriately for work Do not wear tattered, stained, or torn clothing More formal attire may be required for special work- related functions Avoid shirts with sayings or graphics that may offend others
58
Business dressing Many businesses have a casual dress day. This does not mean that you can wear whatever you want. In fact, most businesses are quite careful to specify what is and what is not appropriate. However, if you do find yourself in a situation where you are unsure, follow the golden rule of dressing to the standard of your colleagues. If you are unable to ascertain what that is, it is best to err on the side of caution by dressing more formally than not.
59
Choosing a Color Navy blue is a good color for a “starter” suit. This is a versatile color that can be dressed up or down, depending on the situation and job. Navy is considered a professional and powerful color, but is not as bold as black.
60
It’s all in the Details Hair Simple style You don’t want to distract the interviewer with obnoxious hair. They should notice you for your skills and experiences, not your hair.
61
It’s all in the Details: Final Touches Accessories Don’t overdo it! It’s best to choose 1 or 2 simple accessories like a watch and stud earnings. Portfolio vs. Purse Opt for a sharp, professional looking portfolio instead of your purse. Choose a good quality portfolio with compartments for keys or lipstick. Carry copies of your resume and a pad for note taking.
62
Dressing to Impress Follow Company Policy. Your first reference point is the employee manual. When in doubt – ask your supervisor or a member of Human Resources! Warning: business casual means different things in different companies! Casual dress ranges from coordinated skirt/pant sets to khakis and polo’s. Business casual does not mean jeans or tennis shoes.
