Cream Polo, Camel Wide-Leg Trousers, Olive Overshirt, Tan Chelsea Boot, Navy Wool Scarf, Brown Leather Gloves. A smart combination for video call in temperate weather, with the lightest colour sitting closest to your face.
On a video call the camera crops you at the chest, so the top half carries the whole outfit. Choose a solid colour that separates from your background. Mild weather is forgiving: a light layer that comes on and off is usually all you need. The men's read of this day comes down to a clean silhouette and a quiet palette; the fit does more of the talking than any single piece here.
- Avoid tight patterns; they shimmer on camera.
- Carry a layer for the evening drop.
- A proper collar and a leather shoe carry more formality than any label will.
