Introduction • Whether you’re invited to an industry conference or go on your own, dressing appropriately can make or break your networking experience. • With major events, the way you dress speaks to who you are. Here are some tips to help you stand out:
Dress to the Conference • Keep in mind that different industries have different dress codes. • A gathering of health insurers is going to have a very different dress code than a teachers conference, and a techie’s conference will have a very different atmosphere than a banker’s.
Dress to the Conference • This is one of the few times where overdressing can be a detriment, making you stand out like a sore thumb if an entire convention is keeping things business casual. Know your audience.
You Don’t Need To Go Full Suit • This is really two tips–the first being you can look great without a suit, particularly with more casual conferences. • Consider accentuating your suit if you do have to wear one.
You Don’t Need To Go Full Suit • Two different examples: If the dress code is more casual, a blue sweater vest, gray slacks, and a smart tie can make you stand out from the crowd while still looking appropriate. • If you’re wearing a suit, a bow tie can make you stand out from the regular businessman crowd.
Don’t Wear too Much • This may sound like an odd comment, but make sure what you’re wearing is comfortable, and you’re not using too many layers.
Don’t Wear too Much • Making this mistake means sweating up a storm during the many meet-and-greets you’ll face, so you’ll want to make sure that whatever outfit you have on is light and airy to deal with the day ahead.
When in Doubt, Add a Suit Jacket • No matter if the code is casual, business casual, or full suit, having a jacket handy can let you easily increase or decrease the level of professionalism.
When in Doubt, Add a Suit Jacket • Our advice is to keep a suit jacket on you at all times that you can easily slip into if you find your underdressed, or leave in the bag if you’re blending right in.
Conclusion • If you’re in need of a suit jacket for an upcoming conference, or any other men’s apparel, visit Karako Suits today!
