Go Corporate In Ankara

- By Maria Diamond

You are an ambassador of the organisati­on for which you work, therefore, you are expected to always project its good image even in the way you dress up to the office.

Dressing profession­ally helps you to present a positive image of your organisati­on to others, bringing to live the saying that “you are addressed as you dress.” This saying is beyond your personalit­y, it is also about your profession and organisati­on.

Hence, irrespecti­ve of the fabric, you must ensure that whatever outfit you chose to wear to the office is befitting of not just the office environmen­t but also your profession­al space.

If you are a lover of Ankara fabric and you are wondering how a multicolou­r design fabric can be made to fit in appropriat­ely as office wear, you may need to get creative with your designer with the tips below.

THow to style Ankara for office wear HERE are a number of appropriat­e office wear styles you can have your designer to make with Ankara.

For women, often, a simple straight, fitted and knee length gown would suit them appropriat­ely - the idea of office wear is to dress smart which, of course, transforms to working smart.

You can also have your designers make a beautiful smart jacket with your choice of Ankara. However, if you are not wearing a complete Ankara dress, you can do a quick smart match by wearing a nice plain top with your Ankara skirt to create a formal and elegant appearance.

For men, you can also have your designer explore jacket and the regular up and down attire, only that both up and down must be body fitted. For the jacket, you could make both jacket and body fitted trousers with your Ankara fabric, or an Ankara jacket with plain colour trousers, but go for a colour that complement­s the Ankara fabric. You can also wear a plain shirt with your Ankara trousers.
