    Business Professional Dress Code The way you dress can play a big role in your professional career. Part of the culture of a company is the dress code of its employees. Some companies prefer a business casual approach, while other companies require a business professional dress code. BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE FOR MEN Men should wear business suits if possible; however, blazers can be worn with dress slacks or nice khaki pants. Wearing a tie is a requirement for men in a business professional dress code. Sweaters worn with a shirt and tie are an option as well. BUSINESS PROFESSIONAL ATTIRE FOR WOMEN Women should wear business suits or skirt-and-blouse combinations. Women adhering to the business professional dress code can wear slacks, shirts and other formal combinations. Women dressing for a business professional dress code should try to be conservative. Revealing clothing should be avoided, and body art should be covered. Jewelry should be conservative and tasteful. COLORS AND FOOTWEAR When choosing color schemes for your business professional wardrobe, it's advisable to stay conservative. Wear "power" colors such as black, navy, dark gray and earth tones. Avoid bright colors that attract attention. Men should wear dark‐colored dress shoes. Women can wear heels or flats. Women should avoid open‐toe shoes and strapless shoes that expose the heel of the foot. GOOD HYGIENE Always practice good hygiene.

  • Craft Sportswear and the Finnish National Biathlon Team Launches ‘Hannunvaakuna’ Racing Suit
    Dec 03, 2015 08:00 CET Craft Sportswear and the Finnish national biathlon team launches ‘hannunvaakuna’ racing suit The collaboration between Swedish sportswear brand Craft and the Finnish national biathlon team has resulted in highly functional race garments with a truly strong presence. The new competition wear will be worn by Kaisa Mäkäräinen and her colleagues on the Finnish team during the 2015/2016 season. "We looked for something that would really set the suit apart from the competition," says Craft's designer Lena Karlsson. "Soon we came up with the 'hannunvaakuna', the looped square that is a common symbol in Finland and that conveys strength and good luck. Placing the patterns in lines that follow the moving body, we have created a suit that truly radiates speed and power." The new Finland Biathlon competition garments are based on Craft's revolutionary Podium Suit, which has been equipped with biathlon-specific details such as smooth rubber patches in certain areas to ensure steady and precise shooting. Made of very thin and lightweight Italian polyester, the suit offers superior moisture transport and body-temperature management. In addition, compression fabrics in the legs keep the muscles focused while ultrasonic taped seams create a smooth surface for optimal aerodynamics. The suit is packed with innovative features including Moving Wing Technology ™, which is a wing-like construction piece at the upper back that ensures total freedom of movement and allows the skiers to transmit all their power into each pole stroke. Furthermore, three-dimensional ergonomic design provides perfect fit and optimal comfort. Craft is a Swedish brand specializing in clothing for endurance sports where performance and comfort are crucial for a good result.

  • Results and Discussion 83 RESULTS and DISCUSSION the Interest That Indian Women Showed in Ornamentation and Aesthetic Expression
    Results and Discussion RESULTS AND DISCUSSION The interest that Indian women showed in ornamentation and aesthetic expression through their costumes has been documented well. It is pertinent to understand the messages that they conveyed through their sartorial preferences which is documented in various forms sculptures, scriptures, literature, paintings, costume archives, cinema, media –advertisements and magazines etcetera. Each community and ethnic group maintained unique characteristics, which become symbols of recognition and identification and served to establish their cultural affiliation. Central to this was the Indian woman who was the symbol of patriarchal society. She combined both the functions of being the nurturer and protector of her household and cultural ethos of the society. The woman was as important part as the man; of the Indian society, which embraced both the indoor and outdoor roles within the social- cultural paradigms of the community. The span of evolution of Indian women’s costume, especially the draped version, the sari has undergone immense changes, however to interpret the semiology of the era bygone is rather complex; as one can attempt to understand and decode the tacit meaning through the lens of current observation only. Since the people who shared the ancient set of rules or code for contextual reading that enables us to connect the signifier with the signified are not present, this will prove to be delimiting. The Indian fashion scene began receiving its due credibility and attention from 1980’s onwards and gained the industry recognition in 21st century: hence this research focuses on new millennium to understand the Indian Fashion System.

  • Exploring Generation Y Consumers' Fitness Clothing Consumption: A
    Volume 10, Issue 3, 2018 Exploring Generation Y Consumers’ Fitness Clothing Consumption: A Means-end Chain Approach Katelyn Patrick Business Development Specialist, Glen Raven, MS & BS, College of Textiles, North Carolina State University Yingjiao Xu, Ph.D. Associate Professor, Textile and Apparel, Technology and Management, College of Textiles, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC ABSTRACT Thanks to the growing health awareness and the trend of athleisure, the fitness clothing market has been substantially growing. Generation Y consumers are one of the major segments for the sportswear industry in the U.S. The purpose of this study is to identify preferred product attributes, perceived benefits/consequences and driving values related to Generation Y consumers’ fitness clothing consumption. The means-end chain (MEC) model was adopted to identify the underlying values related to Generation Y consumers’ fitness clothing consumption. Data were collected from 35 subjects via laddering interviews. A hierarchical value matrix (HVM) was structured following the means-end chain analysis. Results highlighted Gen Y consumers’ self-esteem, social recognition, and financial needs in their consumption of fitness clothing. Aesthetics and price seemed to be the most salient attributes identified by the subjects for fitness clothing, followed by durability, performance, fit, breathability and wick-ability. Connecting product attributes to consumer values, perceived consequences included economic value, comfort, image, efficiency, and avoiding embarrassment. This study revealed the major values underlying Generation Y consumers’ consumption of fitness clothing as well as preferred product attributes and perceived benefits/consequences. These findings could provide great implications to the fitness clothing companies in their product development and marketing communication.

  • Jewish Wigs and Islamic Sportswear: Negotiating Regulations of Religion and Fashion Emma Tarlo Goldsmiths, University of London
    1 Jewish wigs and Islamic sportswear: Negotiating regulations of religion and fashion Emma Tarlo Goldsmiths, University of London Abstract This article explores the dynamics of freedom and conformity in religious dress prescriptions and fashion, arguing that although fashion is popularly perceived as liberating and religion as constraining when it comes to dress, in reality both demand conformity to normative expectations while allowing some freedom of interpretation. The article goes on to trace the emergence of new forms of fashionable religious dress such as the human-hair wigs worn by some orthodox Jewish women and the new forms of Islamic sportswear adopted by some Muslim women. It shows how these fashions have emerged through the efforts of religiously observant women to subscribe simultaneously to the expectations of fashion and religious prescription, which are seen to operate in a relationship of creative friction. In doing so, they invent new ways of dressing that push the boundaries of religious and fashion norms even as they seek to conform to them. Keywords Jewish wigs Islamic sportswear fashion religion burqini sheitel This article explores the dynamics of the relationship between religious clothing regulation and fashion by tracking the evolution of new sartorial inventions that have emerged through religious women’s dual concerns with fashion and faith. It proposes that although religious regulations relating to dress play an obvious role in limiting sartorial possibilities, they also provide a stimulus for creative responses that result in stylistic innovation. Viewed in this light, new forms of fashionable religious dress should be seen not so much as attempts to dilute or circumvent religious prescriptions and regulations, but rather as aspiring to obey the rules of fashion and the rules of religion simultaneously.
