The loosening of corporate dress codes may have hit a high-water mark, helped in part by the athleisure movement. Even in traditionally conformist industries like banking, the dress code has relaxed, allowing for business—and sometimes smart—casual.
The new focus in office wear is comfort, according to this Wall Street Journal report, as the modern workplace adapts to new modes of working. And when luxury labels put on the runway silk pajama suits and exquisitely embroidered sweatshirts, who isn’t tempted to get a little creative with the office dress code?
