UBS Instructs Employees How To Dress Like A Bankster - Wear Flesh Colored Underwear, Don't Do Your Own Shirts & Watch The Garlic Breath
"A flawless appearance can bring inner peace and a sense of security."
"The garment is a critical form of non-verbal communication."
"While blazers are equipped with pockets, they were not designed to contain a large number of personal effects or accessories. Leave these empty, so they do not deform."
"Only when it is very hot, and after confirmation of your supervisor, can you wear the shirt without a jacket."
"The jacket must completely cover your posterior."
"Sunglasses cannot be worn on top of the head."
"Piercings, besides earrings, and tattoos are prohibited. Tattoos, piercings or anklets are outdated and do not look professional."
"If you wear a watch, it suggests reliability and that punctuality is of great concern to you."
"After having worn a pair of shoes, allow your shoes at least one day, so let the leather dry out and rest."
"The tip of your tie should under no circumstances enter your pants."
"Do not wash, nor ever iron your shirts yourself."

The UBS look book commands that employees wear suits of dark grey, black or navy blue, since these colors "symbolize competence, formalism and sobriety."
Among the "dos" and "don'ts" for women: "Make sure to touch up hair regrowth regularly if you color your hair." Men are commanded to, "Schedule barber appointments every four weeks to maintain your haircut shape."
Neither sex is allowed to "allow their underwear to appear," wear short-sleeved shirts or, strangely, cuff links.
