When working with a strict dress code, the

simplest way to inject your personality is with a

unique haircut or hairstyle.

Opt for a look that’s modern yet

professional, like a short cut that’s a little

longer on top for a relaxed pompadour.

For those who like to make a statement, try

a close shave on the sides, with extra

length on top.

Slicked-back styles are always popular.

Ask your stylist for a square cut that’s a

little longer on the top and sides so hair

can be combed back and styled.

Just because you’re required

to wear button-down shirts at

work doesn’t mean you have

to suffer in boring hues and

drab stripes. Shop around for

colorful shirts in interesting

patterns, like monochrome

polka dots or a madras fabric.

When opting for a bold look,

always remember to keep the

rest of your outfit relatively

simple to balance things out.

William Henry offers a variety of unique accessories to add flair to a rigid dress code.

Cuff Links: Let your personality shine through with cool cuff links, like a pair studded

with gemstones or finished with antique gold plating.

Pocket Knives: A wearable pocket knife pendant will look excellent paired with your

new colorful button-down.

Money Clips: This utilitarian accessory gets an update from William Henry, such as

the Geneva ‘RMP’ clip with inlaid mother of pearl.

If your workplace dress code dictates a simple suit jacket and pants, let your style peek

out with a pair of interesting socks. You can keep things traditional with stripes or

checkers, or get wild with animal prints or patterns featuring plants or flowers. Believe it or

not, dress socks come in every pattern and color under the sun, so you’re sure to find a

pair that’s quirky. We’ve even seen socks adorned with different types of food!

Ditch boring black dress shoes and shop around for something more exciting. These days,

dress shoes come in many traditional styles, but are updated using non-traditional colors; for

example, cognac-colored wing tip shoes complete with maroon-striped soles. You can also

customize a pair of shoes you already own by swapping out the laces for a bright colored pair.

Liven up a simple suit with a pop of color using a pocket square. There are dozens of ways

to fold a pocket square, such as:

Straight Fold: Fold the fabric in thirds horizontally so it both fits inside and runs

parallel to your suit pocket.

Three Point Fold: Fold the square diagonally, with the points just barely matching.

Fold the left side towards the right, and up to the right of the first point, then fold the

right side straight across the left.

Puff Fold: Pinch the center of the square, and use your other hand to fold the fabric

in half and bring the hem to the center.

Shop a variety of collar options

for a subtle way to add

personality to an otherwise

simple shirt.

Club Collar: features

rounded points

Cutaway Collar: a wide,

spread collar that is “cut

away” and therefore

shorter than usual

Forward-Point Collar:

also known as a straight-

point collar, features a

narrow opening, and

looks best with a tie

Complete your look with a smart briefcase or bag. With this accessory, avoid trendy

colors or patterns and instead focus on finding a quality bag that will last for years

and go with any outfit. We recommend a sleek black leather bag with chrome

zippers and hardware.
