Answer this honestly. What comes to mind in the first 10 seconds when you think of “uniforms”?

School? Fast food? Air hostess? Bell boy? Boring? Sexy?

Uniforms have come a long way since a polyester polo shirt and school skirts. Have you seen what some of the upmarket restaurant staff are wearing lately? Or the flawlessness of the reception at a modern office. Take notice of their outfits. It raises the bar in their ability to have maximum impact on first impressions. Within 7 seconds you are judged on what you are wearing. So, doesn’t it make sense for businesses to dress their staff in-line with their brand?

An employee is one of the first brand touchpoints of a business. Incredible customer service in the right outfit is hands down the most effective way to make an impression!

The evolution of corporate uniforms doesn’t only apply to 5-star businesses. This can be seen in many industries. Below are some classic examples of how we may perceive corporate wear uniforms for some business compared to how they really look today.

Hospitality

Hospitality uniform design is ever-changing. Gone are the daggy t-shirts or their own fashion covered in a grubby apron.
