"What not to wear to the office"

IT's the new trend sweeping the City. Some of the UK's top firms
are hiring 100-an-hour image consultants to make sure their staff look and
sound the part. From CEO to receptionist, staff learn how to dress smartly,
inject gravitas into their voices, and improve their body language.
"If someone wants to run an international company and he wears a Mickey
Mouse tie or watch, it gives the wrong message," said Toshiko Kobatake of
London consultancy Talking Image, whose clients include KPMG, Price
WaterhouseCoopers and IBM.
