17th December 2008 — Maintain a High Profile

We all know that 'clothes maketh the man' and that we all feel more confident when we are dressed well. Likewise a man in a suit looks more serious and confident and few of us would be impressed if our doctor or financial advisor were dressed in scruffy clothing. Every company's biggest asset is their staff and those that have them dressed in a uniform have a definite advantage over their competitors.

“You can see the confidence grow in staff when you put them in a new, well made and stylish uniform,” says James Taylor, managing director of TaylorMade Designs, providers of uniforms and staff clothing for over 15 years. “It is great to see the smile on their faces when they first get to see their new uniform, especially when it presents them with a new image.”

TaylorMade Designs are experts in providing uniforms with clients as diverse as Hoburne Hotels, Madame Tussauds and Sea-Life.

“Casual dressing can mean a casual approach to work, so regardless of whether the staff are involved in a light hearted, sporty or serious role, the clothing can ensure they are able to do the work well while representing the company ethics and standards,” says Taylor.

It is possible to create a new atmosphere and feel for a place with staff uniform. For instance, if a restaurant wants to present a fun and lively atmosphere, they can put their staff in clothing that is more sporty and young. Clothing can also build brands – think of those red jackets at Butlins!

“We really enjoy working with companies to create their new brand identity, and that's not just through clothing but also by providing other items such as gifts and welcome packs,” says Taylor. “It is important for us to understand a company's ethics and ethos and then we can become part of the design and inspiration. We have our own embroidery machines so turn around times can be quick but quality control is guaranteed.”
