DATELINE: LENGTH: Short
nSpur-of-the-moment weddings.
nWhen you go on appointments you won`t be mistaken for a messenger.
nPeople won't cross the street when they see you coming.
nNeither big muscles nor love handles are relevant to most business meetings.
nStrangers will address you as ``sir'' and not ``bud.''
nThe receptionist won't ask if you've come to pick up the dumpster.
nThe term ``leisure suit'' is an oxymoron.

Soft. Loose-fitting. Just the hint of a crease.
Neat enough to pass the dress code but comfortable enough that you forget all about that.
Brooks Brothers says that these days you never know.
Is the sport coat a CEO or a newly minted MBA?
Success today is often found out of the traditional uniform.
Today you can forge your way to success in any uniform you choose.
