Best dressed businessman: the search continues
Closing a deal? The ultimate salesman's outfit is reputedly a navy suit, white shirt and red tie. Works everytime.

Kornman isn’t obliged to wear a suit every day — but he does. That’s dedication. He favours navy or charcoal — always made to measure — with white or pale blue shirts.
His one stylistic quirk? Woollen ties. Then there’s his hair. Cut regularly, it’s combed with a strong side part. The full effect is trustworthy and professional. Just the kind of guy you’d want to take tax advice from.

Patients put more trust in a guy who’s well dressed, says Nand. As a suit connoisseur, he estimates he buys a new suit every three months and rotates them every two years, owning upwards of 15 suits at any one time.
His latest purchase is a navy suit with pink, red and brown pinstripes — but don’t tell his wife. He has to hide the new ones every time he brings them home.
