[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did they look when you interviewed them?

If they looked put together, say “Hey, we’re stepping up our look for client meetings. Please come dressed as you did for the interview. On days we don’t have client meetings, wear what you want.”

If they didn’t look put together when you interviewed them then that’s on you, it was a bad hire. [/quote]

This is a good suggestion.  Ask them to wear interview wear to client sites because they are under scrutiny whenever there/representing best foot forward.

Show pictures of people dressed how you want with minimal descriptions.

I wouldn't describe requirements for hair, makeup, hosiery, etc.  Just say "well-groomed" or "styled" or "polished" with pictures.

What you really seem to want is "stylishness" on top of appropriate dress.

I work with Gen Z product designers from expensive art schools.  They still dress stylishly due to social influences from school and their older bosses.  Expensive jeans, pants, shoes, statement watches, the women have novel statement jewelry (sometimes made by the wearer).  And I'm not in a fashionable major metro.
