社会学家发现：穿裙子的女性要比喜欢穿裤子套装的女性，比如Hillary Clinton 和Angela Merkel 看起来更成功。裤装看起来似乎是对于职场女强人的职业套装，但是似乎裤装有时候并不能给人一个很好的第一印象。

穿裙子为你的职场形象加分

 Research has revealed women who wear skirts and jackets are viewed as more confident, higher-earning and more flexible than those opting for a trouser suit. Scientists also found that opinions of others, based purely on the clothes they are wearing, are formed within seconds of first meeting. So while trouser suits – favoured by powerful women such as US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and German chancellor Angela Merkel – are associated with ambition and success, a skirt suit gives a more positive first impression.

调查发现，相对于穿裤装来说，穿裙子和短上衣的女性看起来更加自信，收入更高也更加可靠。社会学家还发现，基于人们所穿的衣服，别人在第一次见面时，几秒钟之内就会形成一个印象。所以当想美国国务秘书Hillary Clinton以及德国司法官Angela Merkel等职场女强人喜欢裤装示人，并以因此使人联想到强势和成功时，裙装则更容易给人一个更加正面的第一印象。

 In a research, woman was rated more confident and having a higher salary and better flexibility when she was wearing skirt suits. Brenda Polen, director of programs at London College of Fashion, said: "Trousers are traditionally the uniform of power because men wear it. "Women wear trousers at the weekend and for leisure so the skirt suit has become far more associated with successful women. Heels also look a lot better with pencil skirts than with trousers flapping around them."

在调查中，穿裙装的女人看起更自信，收入更高，并且更加可靠。伦敦大学时装学院的Brenda Polen，也就是本项目的发起者说：裤装是传统的职业装，因为男人就是这么穿的。女人会在周末休闲的时候穿裤装，所以裙装与成功女士的联系更加密切了。高跟鞋配铅笔裙也要比配罩在四周的裤子好看的。

  Among men, wearing made-to-measure bespoke suits were rated as having better personality traits than those wearing good quality off-the-peg suits bought from a major high street retailer. Although the suits were made from the same material, men wearing the bespoke suits were regarded as being more confident, more successful, having a better salary and a more flexible personality than those wearing the high street suit. People are influenced by subtle features such as the cut of a suit and it has a powerful impact on judgments of personality and professional status."

对男人来说，穿定制服装要比穿在服装店里买的高档成品衣要看起来更有个人魅力。即使面料相同，穿定制衣服的男人比穿高档成品衣要看起来更加的自信，成功，收入高以及有更加可靠的个人品质。人们被类似于衣服剪裁这样微小的特征影响着，并且更深的影响着于判断一个人的品质和职业状况。
