Even with the COVID-19 work from home policy many businesses have undertaken, wearing a tie in a corporate setting remains an important statement.  Many people still dress for work, even if it is just from the waist up, as online video meetings remain the order of the day.  Over the next two articles, Vinuchi, South Africa’s leading tie manufacturer, will share our top ten tips for corporate tie power dressing to give you the edge in any company setting.

#1: The "Interview" Corporate Tie

Visual cues are key to any interview and having a tie that fits with the company you are interviewing with is crucial. For interviews with companies that have a very serious line of work, consider blues, greys and black in the tie while keeping the colours and patterns neutral.  For a more dynamic company or position, consider subtly incorporating one of the corporate colours into your tie.
