Frequently Asked Questions

What should I wear to a business meeting?

For formal business meetings, a well-fitted suit in navy, grey, or charcoal is the gold standard. For smart-casual business settings, tailored trousers, a quality shirt, and leather shoes convey professionalism. Always prioritise fit over labels.

Can I wear smart-casual to a business meeting?

In many industries, smart-casual is perfectly appropriate — especially for internal meetings, creative sectors, or tech companies. Well-fitted chinos, a blazer, and leather shoes or polished trainers read professional without being overly formal.
