A lot has changed in business in the last few decades. The three-martini lunch is no longer commonplace, nor are celebratory cigars. Likewise, workwear has evolved to suit modern fashion and culture. This infographic illustrates the evolution of workwear. It begins with a quote by Zen Desk, which says that as the line blurs between personal and professional lives, so too has workwear. Next, there’s a cartoon image of a man with “old school” style on his left side and “new school” on his right. The graphic points out differences in everything from pants and shirt to haircut. Next, there’s a quote from the Wall Street Journal, followed by a related graph showing the increasing acceptance of casual wear in the workplace in relation to productivity. It concludes with a quote from The Telegraph, which points out why people prefer not to wear suits and ties as daily workwear.
