Yes! People forget that there is a psychology to dressing well and appropriately. He’s correct that casual Fridays cause casual work ethics! Thanks for the reminder, Byron.
I don’t want my cardiologist discussing surgery procedures while wearing shorts, a tee shirt and a pair of Crocs. Is my condition like a crossword puzzle to pass the time on a Friday morning? Have I interrupted his golf strategy-planning session? Unless it’s an emergency, I dress appropriately for the occasion, my cardiologist can and should do the same.
Referring to the (oft-times) state of dress of the current British Prime Minister a reader of The Telegraph stated that she wished to see a ‘statesman’ occupying the office. Not a ‘mate’.
There is an account on Instagram where the creators take images of men walking on the street and give them digital make overs. Men walking in puff coats and baggy jeans are now dressed in suits. That sort of thing. The men instantly look more attractive, authoritative, and they look like higher earners. The comments in response to that are revealing. As Mr. Mogg said it’s about respecting the office and if you insist on dressing for your personality and individuality you are showing disrespect for the office. Almost every comment that protested the “glow ups” for the men included some sort of reference to allowing people to dress how they want, how they felt their clothes best expressed themselves. Many considered wearing a button shirt, slacks, and a tie with a jacket to be formal wear. In the 1950’s, it was just another Tuesday.
