Lifestyle Clothing versus Corporate Clothing

Lifestyle Clothing versus Corporate Clothing: What’s the Difference?

Lifestyle clothing versus corporate clothing

Corporate clothing is best described as the uniforms that are worn daily whilst at work. This could be tailored suits, comfortable shorts, flowing dresses, or golf shirts, depending on your chosen profession. At XCO Group, we take a different approach to corporate attire through our lifestyle clothing range, comfortable and versatile enough for meetings or matches.

What is the Purpose of Corporate Clothing?

There are multiple types of corporate clothing specifically designed for a more professional and uniform look. Considered as a high-impact, relatively low-cost form of branding, each company’s selection of corporate wear is a reflection of their brand and core values. Whether you work from home, are office-based, or are on-site, your choice of clothing has a direct impact on how you represent yourself and your company, as well as the confidence generated amongst customers.

The Impact Corporate Wear Has on Remote Workers

In a post-pandemic world, there has been a significant shift in the number of staff that work remotely. As important as it is to dress the part when in an office environment, it is equally important to have a dress code when working from home. At XCO Group, our lifestyle clothing range presents companies with the opportunity of supplying corporate clothing to remote workers that still portrays professionalism and represents your brand.

We at XCO Group believe that having a healthy divide when working from home sets you in the right frame of mind when you turn in your apron and tongs for a companybranded golf shirt or hoodie.

  •  Maintaining a work ritual in the mornings by putting on comfortable company wear gives you the confidence and the right approach toward work.
  • What you wear changes your work attitude. Getting dressed makes you feel more productive as it automatically shifts your mindset into work mode.
  • Even though you have traded in your office desk for the kitchen counter, it is important to be presentable at all times. You need to ask yourself if your attire suitably represents your company for online meetings with customers and to head out to the shops quickly without having to change.
  • You may have traded in your suited corporate clothing for a more practical and comfortable approach. However, it is still imperative to remain professional and engaging through what you wear.

XCO Group’s Lifestyle Clothing Range

Our lifestyle clothing range can provide you with a comfortable, practical, and functional working wardrobe, whether you work remotely, happen to be office bound, or are out on the field. Having your corporate identity advertised in the form of corporate wear goes a long way to establishing a positive impression to customers, identifies individuals that work for your company, and promotes a sense of unity amongst staff.

  • Boost Your Branding

A company’s success is associated with its brand, and quite often, uniform. corporate branding on apparel creates an identity that customers and staff alike can easily associate with. Our wide range of lifestyle clothing and branding options can assist you in establishing a dress code that is both comfortable and professional; and one that represents your brand both inside and outside of the office.

  • A Proud Representation

Even though not all professions are limited to four walls and a desk, it is still important to represent the institution that you work for. Whether your work attire is leggings, body warmers, or sweaters, our selection will assist in creating a sense of cohesiveness and belonging whilst proudly representing your club, team, or class.

  • A Working Wardrobe that is Interchangeable

With us at XCO Group, there are multiple options available, making it possible for you to go from your desk to the boardroom without having to change into more appropriate wear. By simply adding a tailored jacket to a classic yet stylish shirt and skirt or pants combination, your company’s image will remain intact.

  • A More Modern, Trendy Approach

Corporate clothing can be modern and trendy yet still retain your corporate identity that you are known for. Working from home or an office requires comfortable, loose-fitting clothing that still retains a modicum of corporate culture. With our range, it is relatively easy to find apparel that is agreeable and chic.

If you are wondering what the difference is between lifestyle clothing and corporate clothing, we assure you that for us, they are the same, whether your company’s choice is more formal or casual.

An Embodiment of Your Company’s DNA   

At XCO Group, our lifestyle and corporate clothing range has been carefully thought out and designed to give you the freedom of how you would like to represent your brand identity. Contact us and let us assist you in selecting a corporate clothing range that your employees want to wear.
