Crop Tops at the Office

Students might be interested in debating whether crop tops are acceptable work attire. Of course, the decision depends on the industry, company, culture—and students’ own ideas about professional dress.

A Wall Street Journal article explains the importance of pairing. A crop top with high-waisted, wide pants or a pencil skirt might look better than, say, leggings. Also, a button-down crop might stand alone on top, but a tight-fitting one is safer with a jacket. Students might agree with the informal dress code I remember at school: no belly buttons.

Women interviewed for the article say the top makes them feel taller, cooler, and a little rebellious.
