Nothing highlights the absurdities of corporate life quite like getting dressed for summer.<\/p>\n

For starters, if you work in a mixed-gender office, your commute likely leaves you sweltering \u2013 only to spend the rest of the day quietly freezing in the aggressively air-conditioned tundra of your cubicle. Then there\u2019s the dress code: a vague, outdated brief seemingly designed to suppress personality, disregard common sense, spark confusion, and occasionally trigger a meltdown five minutes before you\u2019re meant to walk out the door. Shoulder-baring singlets? Unprofessional, even if they\u2019re Loewe. But a misshapen polyester button-up? Totally acceptable. Make it make sense.<\/p>\n

The good news is that many workplaces now allow more relaxed or flexible dress codes. The days of mandatory, shapeless corporate outfits are mostly gone. But summer still raises the same issue: how do you stay comfortable in the heat without feeling underdressed or unprofessional? To help, we\u2019ve put together a guide. From lightweight suiting to breathable footwear, RUSSH<\/em> shares key workwear essentials to get you through warm-weather months with ease.<\/p>\n
