Step 1 - Assess Your Personal Style 

• What types of clothing do you feel most confident in? 
• Are there certain types of clothing you avoid? Why? 
• Consider your personal style, cultural norms, religious beliefs, gender identity, and expression. 

Step 2 - Consider the Occasion 

• What image do you want to project? 
• What are the norms of the industry or company? 
• What is the work environment like, and what tasks will you be doing? 
• For networking events, consider the type of event, location, and time. 

Step 3 - Make Your Decision 

• Research the organization’s work culture and typical dress code. 
• Aim for a balance between being slightly overdressed and feeling comfortable. 
• Your outfit doesn’t need to be expensive but should be clean and neat. 
• Don’t shy away from colour—just consider how it reflects your personality.
