You only get one first impression in regards to both your career and your social life. That first impression matters an awful much. According to a study by Harvard, a first impression is made in only seven seconds.

 

Much of what constitutes a first impression is nonverbal, and what you are wearing is a huge factor. A great wardrobe can certainly help a man be successful in the world. With that in mind, below are some tips you should keep in mind for updating your wardrobe for success in life.

 

Develop Wardrobes for Work and for Leisure

It should go without saying. However, not enough men have a well-organized wardrobe dictated by function. In general, you should grow your wardrobe into two categories. First is clothing for work and business. Second is clothing for leisure and off the clock socializing. To maximize the effectiveness of your wardrobe, both these categories of dress are extremely important.

 

Start a Relationship with a Tailor

Most men buy their clothing off the rack. However, off the rack clothing is designed to produce the largest profit potential. If you don’t fit into the mold of large swaths of men in regards to your size and proportions, you’re going to be ignored by those companies. According to bebespoke.co, a company that creates custom men’s suits in NJ, tailor made clothing is the key to really unlocking your own personal style. Without the application of measurements taken during the tailoring process, clothing will never fit your own unique frame perfectly. Others may notice this whether consciously or subconsciously in both business and social situations.

 

Develop Your Own Personal Style in a Tasteful Manner

Many men are afraid of the fashion world. This is understandable. The world of fashion is a foreign seeming universe with its own rules that don’t really apply to normal everyday life in the United States. If you wore what was on the runway, you’d look like a clown. Instead, stay true to the tasteful bedrock of business and outwear standards but switch it up a bit with your own personal flair. A great way to do this is with accessories like pocket squares and ties that can help put your own personal stamp on the suits you wear.

 

A strong first impression is extremely important for living a successful life. Your clothes are a huge factor in that first impression. Make sure you build a wardrobe that has some of your own personal flair but also puts you the path to success.
