Lesson: Business Attire
This week we are looking at business attire and the different levels of formality within it. We will discuss workplace attire and practice preparing outfits for a range of different workplace situations.
Part 1 - What is business attire?
Business attire is clothing that employees wear to work. Depending on the workplace, business attire can change. If you work in an office, it’s wise to pay attention to the way people dress. While the office may be casual, you might notice that people in leadership positions dress slightly more formally. You may choose to dress similarly to the people whose positions you want to achieve.
Part 2 - Exercise:
Choose an outfit for the presented situations, ranging from casual to business professional. Make sure you can give a reason for your choices!
Part 3 - Discussion:
What dress code does your workplace have? Do you agree with it? Does it change in summer or winter?
