Success and Fit-ness
Successful people dress the part. When they give presentations, they are usually the best-dressed in the room. Even if the dress code at the office is “business casual”, they kick it up a notch and stand out. For most of us, when we look better and our clothes are flattering, we feel better and project more confidence. Business Week gives a simple but very important piece of wardrobe advice:
“Men’s Wearhouse founder George Zimmer says most people make the mistake of wearing suits that don’t fit well—too loose, too tight, too long, too short. According to Zimmer and other wardrobe experts, a proper fit ranks as the single most important decision when buying and wearing a suit. If the store doesn’t offer expert tailoring, spend the money to get it done right.”
Just as you need the right fit in a career, you must have the right fit in clothing. Though this may seem trivial, these subtle matters of detail make a huge impact on perception.
