Expert Answer

First, it’s important to identify what you feel confident in and integrate that into your CEO style. Make sure that you have a few essential pieces, such as great fitting blouses, t-shirts, sweaters and trousers. Think of these as the building blocks to CEO style.

Focus on buying your essential pieces in what we call core colors: black, grey, white and navy. These colors are unifying and will help you get ready every day without stress. If you want to diversify your look, invest in accessories in different colors.

No matter your body type, take your clothing to a tailor so it can be altered to fit you perfectly.

Question

Is it appropriate for a female CEO to wear a miniskirt?

Aditi

Community Answer

A female CEO should not wear a miniskirt if it is a conservative business, as miniskirts are too revealing. In that case your best bet would be to choose a skirt that falls at your knee, below your knee, or just above your knee. However, if the business is more informal or casual, then it might be fine. Gauge it by what others are wearing and how comfortable you feel about it.
