Dressing for a bartending job can be tricky. You want to convey professionalism while still keeping the ‘bar’ image. Your look should be a step above that of the staff, while still being casual enough to go out for dinner. Your interviewer will likely tell you the exact dress code at the time of scheduling your interview. Here are a few tips for dressing for a bartending job:
Bartending outfits need to look stylish and professional. They should exude professionalism and expertise. First impressions are everything, so make sure your outfit is giving off the right vibe. It should also be practical and durable – make sure the material won’t show stains or creases! If you’re working in a high-end bar, consider buying a custom tie or a gold lapel – accents that make a statement.
For more casual settings, consider wearing a shirt and braces combination. This outfit has a barrow boy feel, but is still a practical choice. The combination of braces and shirt also gives a more vintage vibe. A white chef’s jacket is also a great option – although it’s not the most practical for mixing drinks. A waistcoat is not necessary, but it will add an extra dose of seriousness to your outfit.
During the party season, you should avoid wearing too many clothes with large logos. For the party, you may want to avoid wearing a suit, as it is too revealing. Besides, you should be comfortable in your clothes. Remember that you may have to carry large cakes and other foods, and you don’t want to be a fashion victim! You can look good while serving cocktails and interacting with guests. So, it’s important to choose the right outfit for the party you’ll be attending.
