corporate dressing for ladies

This is completely out of topic of the usual.


I enjoyed dressing corporate, as I did before. A suited female with the right details never fails to turn my eye. Having said that, there are some details one must note to be well- and professionally-dressed for the Shenton Ways of Singapore.


  1. Please don't wear slip-on mules with suits. You are not a clerk. Anything in a suit should come with strapped in heels or pumps.
  2. Please don't let down your long hair, lovely or not. Long hair should remain up, not down, unless you are going for the helpless female routine.
  3. Please wear some makeup - unless you are in Shop and Save as the customer from upstairs buying things (me, for example).
  4. Please wear fitted jackets, not robes that are a size too big. Button when walking or standing only, not when seated.
  5. A shirt and skirt or pant combi is not a suit, it is dress-down for casual environments or weekend work.
