What sort of business attire will my clients receive through SolutionsWear?
We do our best to provide each Solutions Wear program participant with professional ensembles. In many cases, we are able to provide items such as belts, shoes, ties, scarves, jewelry, and handbags to enhance and complete their outfits. We assist participants in selecting garments that can be mixed and matched to create much more than five outfits.
Will my clients be able to browse for clothing or is their clothing selected by Solutions at Work staff?
Your clients will be encouraged to and feel comfortable browsing for clothing much as they would in a traditional retail store. Our friendly, knowledgeable staff will be on hand to help your clients select flattering items that can be mixed and matched to create numerous outfits. Our staff will even show your clients how to tie a tie, if need be!
