Non-verbal communication in virtual contexts
Dress to impress, that’s another well known saying which really counts
online as well. Since most people have gone online while working from their
homes, it somehow made people a little bit less restrictive as far as the clothing
is concerned. The logic behind it is simple, we are at home, so home dressing
code is applied. Well, there is nothing more misleading. Casual, home clothing
is good for home pleasures. Virtual meetings, though conducted at home, require
a little bit more than a worn out t-shirt. The dressing code is also something
by means of which you show your respect to your interlocutors also online.
Besides solid colors, delicate patterns do not distract, look much better and
more professional onscreen.
