Dress for success, not like a ninja
On September 5th at the SketchBubble blog Ashish Arora posted on Look the Part: How to Dress for Success for Your Next Presentation. His good advice included headings about:
Dress as well as your audience
Wear an outfit that allows movement
Dress Age-appropriate
Watch those colors
For the ladies...
And for you men...
What did he miss? Look at his image showing a man’s black suit coat against a slightly lighter gray background. Instead you should check out where you will be speaking. The clothes colors you choose should provide significant contrast with the background.
Otherwise you will be a stealth speaker, as I discussed on March 20th in a post titled Don’t dress like a ninja when you are going to speak! In an earlier 2011 post I also mentioned that you also should avoid finely spaced patterns like check shirts, which will produce moire patterns on video recordings.
The ninja image is from Wikimedia Commons.
