You come to work on a normal day wearing an outfit which is below the normal standard, you will find it hard to be taken as seriously as you want. Although your business skill is what you are hired for, looking smart will give you an advantage.
It is all about the way you are viewed that is how people who meet and associate with on an everyday basis view you. If you put on a tuxedo styled just right for the office you would have made the perfect image of yourself already.
The reason why the image you would have created is much better is quite simple. It is an inevitable fact that people would assume that because you care so much and take care of how you look, you would also care and take perfect care of the work assigned to you.
Unfortunately, just having a decent suit may not be enough. Imagine that you are dealing with the board of a company, and you wish to sell the services of your company. Your potential clients will most probably all be dressed immaculately. You will need to submit the proposals of your company clad in a very smart, chic, probably Italian designer labelled tuxedo.
As stated, you obviously still need to "know your stuff". Nevertheless, knowing your stuff and dressed impeccably will certainly go a long way.
If you could imagine sitting at the other side of the table, and the man in front of you was trying to sell his company to you. If he arrived wearing a $50 jacket and pants and a South Park tie, not only would you think less of him, but less of his company for sending him to you dressed in this manner.
It is an unpleasant and unfortunate fact that what people look like does influence how we think of them and first impressions do matter. Sometimes we find out later that our first impressions were wrong. In business there is seldom a second chance and even if later the true is revealed, it may be too late to save your business.
