The Industrialist

An industrialist tends to hop from capital city to capital city and spends most of their time in meetings so making an impression is important. Whether you’re a banker or an architect, looking polished will subconsciously aid your professionalism. If you’re jetting off to warmer climates during spring, opt for cool fabrics and wear linen trousers teamed with a white cotton shirt and tan brogues – a staple look for any true gentleman. The Calvino briefcase is the epitome of a modern business bag – soft in structure and minimal in aesthetic.

The Techie

Work in technology? Whatever you do, don’t do a ‘Mark Zuckerberg’ and have a wardrobe full of multiple copies of the same t-shirt and hooded sweater. This type of look is a little too streamlined. Although your job allows you to look more ‘casual’ than ‘business’, maintain minimal and clean lines and you’ll still look sharp. Choose a structured, crew neck t-shirt in a light hue and a pair of loosely tailored trousers. Roll up the hems slightly for spring and team with a pair of simple leather trainers in a contrasting colour. Finish off the look with the Volterra laptop briefcase – an ideal blend of function and style.
