Modern offices have more of a casual approach when it comes to the corporate working environment.

This translates as a change in the dress code as well, which is increasingly leaning towards a more semi-formal approach, rather than strictly formal, or then casual.

Take trousers, for instance. The semi-formal look is more 'in' at the moment, in terms of fabric, design and colours. Yarn-dyed stripes fashioned in light-weight fabrics are very trendy right now.

Formal trousers have also been witnessing a few 'semi-formal' adaptations by way of a low-slung waistline, asymmetric pocket openings and buttoned fly. This complements the casual yet formal office atmosphere.
