But it doesn't really surprise me. It's Hillary's pansuits all over, no? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149230 Tue, 20 Oct 2020 07:57:08 +0000 Bijou 2149230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An interesting observation about how women who are news anchors are judged by their dress choices. I thought you would be interested by an experiment done in 2014 by a male morning show host who wore the same suit everyday for 1 year with no comments made. YET his female co-host (always immaculately attired) often had comments made on her fashion choices:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://www.smh.com.au/entertainment/tv-and-radio/karl-stefanovics-sexism-experiment-today-presenter-wears-same-suit-for-a-year-20141115-11ncdz.html">https://www.smh.com.au/enterta.....-presenter</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149215 Tue, 20 Oct 2020 02:19:43 +0000 Jaime 2149215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Liesbeth I love the clothes your sports caster is wearing! The only reason I would ever watch sports coverage! Generally I am unimpressed by local newscasters outfit choices. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149211 Tue, 20 Oct 2020 02:10:50 +0000 Sal 2149211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved the images from the The Fold.&nbsp; And I do find it interesting when presenters have quite a different dress code next door to each other (seasonally or in dressiness levels).&nbsp; It used to be the case here but it is varying as presenters are more diverse in age, ethnicity, dress flair and I suspect also budgets are smaller..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149166 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 18:17:46 +0000 celia 2149166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always wondered about the US presenters with the very short/sleeveless/tight dresses when their male counterparts are in suits.<br />I understand that studios can get very hot so it is a plus sometimes but always?<br />The neckline of the dress you showed is beautiful.<br />Out of curiosity, I looked at Portugal's presenters and they seem to follow more the seasons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149164 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 18:04:58 +0000 Jane 2149164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great detailing at the neck on that dress! </p> <p>In defence of The Fold, I’m not skinny and The Fold fit me! But nodding with you that there should be a good range of sizes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149159 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 17:24:53 +0000 cjh 2149159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Liesbeth, yes, American. I must say the neon brights have been not as prominent lately, but still quite tight and skimpy dresses often. I rarely see blazers, jackets or two piece outfits on local news women.</p> <p>i kind of like Catherine’s choices, although I agree with the question about the pajama look of the loose beige top. The Darth Vader blouse is artistic and interesting, as is the light blue with the sleeve “flanges.” Thanks for sharing.&nbsp;<div><br /></div><div>(I know German, so the Dutch isn’t too difficult to decipher.)<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149153 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 16:59:56 +0000 Liesbeth 2149153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. Is the neon bodycon dress American? Here female news anchors dress in blousers and blazers typically. At best they have a little more leeway to dress in interesting pieces, like an infamous sports presentor. The following article is in Dutch but you can see many pics of her controversial clothing choices ;).<br /> <a href="https://www.hln.be/tv/sporza-presentatrice-catherine-van-eylen-over-haar-kledingkeuzes-ik-sta-achter-alles-wat-ik-draag~ad6b483c/" rel="nofollow">https://www.hln.be/tv/sporza-p.....~ad6b483c/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149124 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 14:32:08 +0000 Angie 2149124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very posh! I echo your thoughts.</p> <p>ETA: I've noticed that the dress code depends on which news presenters you watch. Rachel Maddow for example, is always in an impeccable black suit jacket, and Joy Reid wears beautiful bright colours in fun professional silhouettes. She changes her hair a lot too. Always top notch.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-professional-dress#post-2149104 Mon, 19 Oct 2020 13:15:20 +0000 cjh 2149104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Regarding today’s blog post on The Fold London, I must say the clothes are gorgeous, and really exemplify the interesting, classy, classic, modest yet sharp look that I’d love to see on, say, the local evening news anchor, whose male co-anchor wears a pristine, well-fitting dark suit and she wears a neon skin tight sleeveless dress in the middle of winter. </p> <p>I, too, noticed that the models (I didn’t check their size options) are all tall extra-skinny ladies, not the most realistic assortment.</p> <p>Some of the dresses and pieces seem similar to this excellent dress worn by Kate Snow on last night’s NBC news. </p>
