Best dressed
Oct. 8th, 2008 11:05 amAccording to what I would guess is a very unscientific survey in Esquire magazine (not a publication I subscribe to I - the article was quoted in Accountancy Age, which I get for free), the company in Britain with the best dressed employees is one of the other Big Four accountancy firms, PriceWaterhouseCoopers.
The article goes on to say that the average suit worn by men at PwC costs between £2,000 and £10,000.
HOW MUCH???
I'm a senior manager in one of PwC's direct competitors, and I've never spent more than £400 on a suit. And to be honest, I don't think I'm especially stingy when it comes to clothes buying.
My suspicion is that they asked partners, not employees. If I earned as much as a London Big 4 partner does, I might spend that much on a suit.
Those of you who are a) male and b) wear suits - how much do you typically spend on a suit?
