Fashion
The appropriate
clothing for business varies widely. Proper dress depends on the
region of the country, a person's company, his or her position within it
and the industry in which he or she works. Begin with professional
attire and manner until you have observed what others wear.
Suits
are still standard dress for men, however casual dressing is becoming more
popular in the workplace, especially on Fridays. In cities, conservative
business attire is best; in rural areas and small towns, clothing is less
formal and less fashionable. Socks should match your suit; no leg
should show between pant hem and shoe. Hats are not worn indoors.
Women
do not over dress for daytime or wear flashy or noisy jewelry. American
women do not wear a lot of makeup to the office. Low-cut blouses,
short skirts and tight clothing are not appropriate office attire.
If you
wish to wear traditional clothing from your country, feel free to do so.
Americans
usually feel free to wear whatever they please; however appearance as a
whole is important to the individual American. Cleanliness is emphasized
but casual attire is often worn.
