Why Luxury Fashion Is a Good Investment for MBA Students

By Dean Shaw · On January 19, 2017

As an MBA student, you’ll probably be thinking more about what you wear than ever before. At this point in your life, whilst studying for this prestigious and sought-after qualification, how you present yourself to your classmates, professors, potential employers and other professionals that you will likely meet as you complete your on-campus or online MBA is essential. Although you may not have much spare cash to spend on clothing whilst at college, investing what you can in luxury business basics can certainly pay off. What you wear is an important part of your appearance, and if you go for a job interview your fashion choices can have a bigger impact on first impressions than almost anything else.

Dressing for Class

Of course, the up side to being a student is that unlike in the working world, most students are able to dress casually, although you might not want to go to the extremes that some undergraduates go to, for example turning up in pajamas! Unless stated otherwise, you should dress smart-casual for class. Even though it’s not a work environment, your appearance can make a vital impression on your professors and any guest speakers that attend. Investing in luxury fashion not only means that you’ll have comfortable and long-lasting garments to wear to class, it can help you to stand out!

Job Interviews

During the final year of your MBA degree you may attend job interviews in order to secure your place at a graduate job once you’ve earned your qualification. Dressing for a job interview is one of the most important tasks that you will do when it comes to preparing your appearance and presenting yourself well to the employer and other candidates. Interviewees for most business positions are expected to wear traditional business attire, but with everybody wearing a suit, you’ll need to make sure yours is a luxury brand such as Armani or Chanel to make a better impression.

Networking

Networking events are great opportunities for MBA students, as here you can meet a whole range of people who could be a potential employer after you graduate, or could even provide you with work experience whilst you earn your MBA online. Because of this, you really should dress to impress when at a networking event – think of it as a job interview, but with multiple prospective employers and you aren’t sure which job or company you could potentially be working for. Networking events are all about making a good impression, so what better way to do that than to be the best dressed with high quality, luxury clothes?

Work Experience

As an online MBA student, getting work experience is a great way to improve your chances of landing a better job after graduation. But, how you present yourself on the job will influence your employer’s impression of you and your chances of being invited back to work for them full-time. So, when working, be sure to dress your best and appear professional at all times.

As an MBA student, what you wear is more important than you think!
