“You can Never be Overdressed or Overeducated” - Oscar Wilde

Dressing for different event types can be difficult to navigate but chances are the nature of the event will provide guidelines for your attire. Whether it’s a conference, networking event, company offsite, or holiday party, we’ve got you covered!
Most conferences or company functions will suggest “business casual” as the dress code.
Some conferences or networking situations will require you to be a bit dressier and opt for a more formal appearance.
Usually for a holiday function.
Very formal situations - such as a gala or fundraiser.
Some other things to consider; temperature, time of year, venue, and geographic location. Always be prepared for temperature fluctuation by dressing in layers. Also, don’t forget - if these are company events be sure to consult your company’s dress code and keep policies in mind. No matter where or what the occasion, you’ll be sure to wow your colleagues at your next function!
