Team Coordination - Choosing a colour palette is
the perfect way to co-ordinate your entire team

Black - Glamorous & Dramatic

70% of all fashion items sold in the UK are black, so more than half the population can't be wrong. In a working environment this colour communicates sophisticated professionalism, as well as hiding a multitude of sins - great news all round.

Black works well with almost every colour, but looks particularly good with bright vibrant colours like reds, pinks, blues and greens, which can be used as an accent colour to relax the severity of the black.

Simon Jersey's black suiting is available in a wide range of high quality fabrics. This can be co-ordinate with print, checked or plain blouses, and it looks fab with an open collar plain white shirt and a flame scarf. And to coordinate male colleagues how about adding a plain white shirt, grey stripe tie and classic waistcoat in cherry red?

In the restaurant the chef can co-ordinate with the waiting by combining traditional style chefs' jacket in black with the black and white multi check trousers, apron & cap. The waiting staff can then look modern and minimalist with the black mandarin collar blouse and shirt. This looks great matched with the basic long apron in black. Or for a more casual look add laid-back style with a black crinkle blouse or granddad collar fitted t-shirt.

Add a touch of glamour in the spa with the best-selling asymmetric tunic and bootleg trouser or an understated chambray tunic and trouser in charcoal.
