making money is /fa/

a lot of people that make bank wear suits

so yes, depends what kind of suit though

>>10320443
If you're young, all the money is in tech. No one in tech wears suits. Suits are basically bank teller tier unless you're 40+.

>>10320466
I'm young, in tech, and wear a suit, am I doing it wrong?

>>10320369
tom ford is always /fa/ nigga.

>>10320618
>I'm the only person who wears a suit in an entire industry
>Am I doing it wrong

Maybe not, but I'm guessing you stand out in a way most of your peers would sneer at.

>>10320618
I'm in tech too. I mean I guess it matters what your peers are doing. But I know me and my friends would think someone in our industry dressing like that likely doesn't relate / isn't worth approaching.

>>10320369
Depends on the occasion. A lot people (like me) are obliged to wear a suit before visiting clients. Suits are pretty awesome but don't wear em when the situation doesn't fit it, cause you will look like a try hard really fast.

>>10320665
Howly fuck Just what the hell happened to my English there.

>>10320618
I think that would depend on how big and esteemed your employer is. Wearing a suit is not a necessity at some law firms because they are small and casual but a lot of big ones will give you shit for promoting a bad image.

>>10320618
I work in tech too. Don't wear a suit to the office, you'll look dumb. But do wear one when going to clients, just for showing that extra bit off respect. Some banks our company did jobs for wouldn't even let people in their office without a suit.

>mfw I work in tech for a big financial corporation.

Welcome to the club home boy. Do you play golf too?

suit thread? suit thread!

>>10320675
He's in the tech sector. Larry Page, Tim Cook, The Zuckerberg, these people don't even wear suits.

>>10320680
This is decent advice, but I wouldn't wear a suit for all clients. Take some of those skills you were supposed to learn in core writing at university: know your audience.

>>10320725
>fuccbois think casual separates are suits

>>10320729
What if I told you I simply enjoy wearing a suit?

>>10320729
>tfw always have worn full office dress minus jacket for every job I've had
>tfw starting tech sector job based in Silicon Valley and I have no fucking idea what is too dressy or not dressy enough
>guide says to wear "whatever is most comfortable"
>fuck my life

>>10320729
I get that, but I was speaking from my experience. I haven't done a lot of work with people in tech but I would imagine the administrative people that aren't in an immortal position like Zuckerberg could use dressing well as leverage with clients and potential clients.

>>10320739
I'd ask how euphoric you are.

>>10320369
>Does /fa/ approve of suits?

Of course not. /fa/ only approves of shit-looking clothes.

Jesus christ the comments in this thread. How fucking self centered are some of you clowns that you seriously think your opinion regarding casual suiting matters?

Also: why do you all talk like high school dropouts? Someone mentions his job (which obviously is a lie, because a 23 year old would never talk like that) and you respond with 'welcome to the club boy :DDD'.

Fucking christ.

I wish I had more occasions to wear a suit.

>>10321118
Just wear one whenever you feel like it?

>>10321118
Overdressing doesnt exist unless you attend lecture in a tux.

Just wear suits casually. No tie, a striking shirt, derbies or boots. Thats what I have been doing for years. It sure as hell doesnt look formal.

>>10320466
tech isn't limited to hipster iphone apps start-ups you autist, most tech companies sell stuff to other companies, and good luck meeting a client of a fortune 500 company dressed in a t-shirt

>>10320466
>If you're young, all the money is in tech
Yet you are being paid more in law, petroleum engineering, basically any field that lets you legally cut open people and few others.

I wear a suit to work... It's not /fa/ it's just workwear to be honest and it's really not a big deal. Nobody comments on it either. Then again it is mandatory.

Opinions on a grey blazer with blue trousers?
>I know it works the other way around, but I wore this combo once when I was desperate and kinda don't know if it works.

>>10321545
Depends on the shades

Navy pants with light greyish blazer works ok
Navy pants with carcoal blazer simply doesnt
Most light blue shades look retarded for pants

Blue really is tough for pants. Theres hardly anything you can wear with it. Limits you so goddamn damn it isnt even funny.

>>10320369
>>Does /fa/ approve of suits?
Yes, I approve

>>10321497
I covered that. Some clients will warrant a suit. Some won't. What this doesn't mean is that you should wear a suit to the office everyday.

>>10322639
i tried wearing a suit everyday during my tenure at a firm,everyone seems to respect you more but they get overtly polite to me and treats me with more attention like im going to have an outburst,it was a weird feeling

>>10320747
Polo and chinos bruv. Or a simple white button down

Finance has tons of money for young people. Good luck not wearing a suit

Where do I have to work so it's ok to wear a suit like this?

Psychology

I live in south Florida. The entire almost all men where I work can't be bothered wearing a full suit.

Younger men like me usually just wear a cardigan or sweater for our formal wear when it gets chilly.

Suits are phenomenal, and I love wearing them to work.

>No one in tech wears suits. Suits are basically bank teller tier unless you're 40+.
Kinda-sorta-maybe correct. Naturally, random programmers don't wear suits. Same for engineers and the like. That said, that doesn't mean you ~shouldn't~ if you are in any sort of non-gruntwork position - suits command respect and are a great way to dress well in a professional context.

Like, a well-tailored suit is always gonna feel better than some nonsense business casual crap anyway.

>>10320643
>But I know me and my friends would think someone in our industry dressing like that likely doesn't relate / isn't worth approaching.
I'm very eager to see the SV bubble burst and shit like this end. The whole ~we're captains of industry and know better than the white collar workers~ shit is merely a product of overinflated engineer egos. SV is propped up on a bubble of poorly-placed venture capital, and it's fuckin' pets.com and webvan all over again. The second this bubble bursts, all the autists in California are going to have a very unpleasant future.
