Many of us are faced with the new reality of conducting business from home. We have a new acronym and a new reality, work from home (WFH).
As a men’s custom-made company, we wonder, how are you navigating your new wardrobe needs with this situation? We realize that finding yourself being forced to WFH probably makes you approach everything in a different way, including your wardrobe. And maybe you are beginning to think differently about how to look professional, combining with the need for maximum comfort around your home.
We’re here to help with some tips and tricks on how to make sure you navigate this new reality in style.
Let’s just say that we also realize that WFH isn’t a new thing, as over the last ten-fifteen years we have seen a blending of work and home more and more, being able to respond to emails and connect on our devices anywhere, anytime. Many people already work from their home or on-the-go and they have learned that the need to look professional and well turns out is just as important, no matter where you work from. For many of our clients at J.Hilburn, this is a new reality, and we want to be able to help you with your wardrobe needs.
Remember that dressing well is not just about your appearance – it will make you feel better about yourself and help boost your confidence, which is great at anytime, but especially now as each day throws at us a completely new set of challenges.
Are you presenting or on a sales call virtually from home? Think about some comfortable easy to wear fabrics that look a bit more professional:
Shirts in performance fabrics such as Non-Iron, Journey, Comfort Stretch -these all offer a touch of help to keep your look sharp.
Our new Brezza Mélange shirts from the Summer Collection are the perfect option – easy to wear checks, plaids and solids that you can dress up or give them a Soft Wash for that extra touch of softness and comfort to wear at home.
Lightweight knit jackets in Soft or Deconstructed construction – this is a great piece to have close by so you can look more professional for a sales call or meeting. Super soft, comfortable and easy-to-wear and throw over a custom shirt or custom knit.
What about a more casual work from home style?
