    THE PROFESSIONAL MAN AND

    HIS ATTIRE
    Joselito S. Flores
    • 1. Articles of the clothing must be clean and
    net and should fit properly

    • 2. The standards business attire for men in


    formal organizations in the Philippines is any
    of the following sets:
    • Long-sleeved polo shirt, tie, dark pants

    • Short or long-sleeved barong, dark pants

    • Three-piece suit of lightweight fabric


    3. Some things to consider about the long-
    sleeved polo shirt:
    • The color white is still the safest one to stick
    with
    • Light blue, beiges or the pts and other pastels
    are also accepatable colors

    • The paler he hue of the shirt, the better

    • As for the shirt designs, only solids or thin s


    • The conventional fabric of choice is cotton.
    Cotton/ polyester blends are`acceptable as
    well for their resistance to wrinkles.

    • Silks, see-through fabrics, knits and other shiny


    materials are totallt inappropriate for
    business.
    4. Ties always must darker than the shirt. Their
    material should be of silk or any silk-like fabric.
    THE HALF OF WINDSOR
    The Half of Windsor knot is widely used and is
    ideal for most collars.
    1. Hang the longer thicker side to the right.

    2. Wrap it around the slimmer side to the right


    3. Weave the longer end through the loop and
    bring down to the left.

    4. Wrap the thicker end around the knot


    5. Pull the longer and thicker end through the
    back

    6. Slip on the points of the tie in the knot and


    simultaneously pull down the other side. Tie
    the knot tightly, but comfortably.
    Do this while facing the mirror.
    The Windsor

    More complicated that the Half Windsor and


    is a classic.
    1. Hand the tie so that the thicker end is longer
    and to the right

    2. Wrap the longer end over the short one and


    pull it through the loop. Be sure that you do
    this from the back.
    3. Weave the longer end through the loop and
    bring down to the left.

    4. Wrap the thicker end around the knot


    5. Pull the longer and thicker end through the
    back

    6. Slip on the points of the tie in the knot and


    simultaneously pull down the other side. Tie
    the knot tightly, but comfortably.
    THE LENGTH
    • The length of your tie should always be the
    same. When it is tied properly, the tip of your
    tie should hit just top of your belt. You may
    want to leave it just about mid-buckle. 
    • Longer than that would be too long. You will
    need to adjust the length when tying it.
    Depending upon your height, you will need
    more or less fabric to achieve this.
    The Four-in-Hand
    Usually worn with the button down collar or
    the standard color. This is very appropriate for
    the tall, lean man.
    1. Make sure that the right end id
    approximately 2 ½ inches longer that the left
    and narrow end.
    2. Make the longer end wrap around the short
    end from behind, be sure that when you finish
    you are on the right.
    3. Turn the right to the left.

    4. Pull the longer side through the loop from the


    back
    5. Slip the end to the loop. Tighten and pull
    down the short end while balancing the longer
    end and knot tightly.
    What is really first and ofteb noticed of you
    short is you collar. The quality and the fit can
    make or break your look.
    There are four collar styles:
    • The button down collar is the most popular
    and the most appropriate for business as well
    as casual and informal wear
    • However, it should not be worn for formal
    wear. Make sure that your tie is not too wide
    for your collar as this will cause the collar to
    wrinkle. 
    •  Also, pull on the fabric creasing it across your
    chest and pulling the collar out of line. It is
    best to move the buttons.
    The round collar is very elegant and
    distinctive.
    •  It is not very corporate, and should be worn
    only for casual and fun occasions, like outdoor
    gatherings or social wear. 
    • It is a very sophisticated collar and is favored
    by bankers and businessmen. 
     
    • But if you happen to have to have a round
    face, and a short neck, this is definitely not for
    you.
    • The standard collar is the most common of all
    shirt collars, and is the one that usually fits all
    shapes of face.
