The fit mistakes that make you look less credible

Hi ,


Sarah had been running her own consulting business for three years. She knew her clients' industries inside and out, consistently delivered results, and had glowing testimonials.


Yet, she noticed a subtle but consistent issue: during presentations, people kept interrupting her, speaking over her, or dismissing her ideas.


One day, after a particularly frustrating meeting, a mentor asked Sarah to examine her wardrobe closely. That blazer she loved? It pulled at the shoulders. Those pants she wore weekly? They gaped at the waist. Everything was "almost right" but not actually fitted to her body.


The problem wasn't her knowledge or skill—it was fit. Misaligned clothing sends a message you might not intend: "I don't know my proportions," "I'm not detail-oriented," "I don't value myself enough to invest in proper fit." Even experienced professionals subconsciously pick up on it.


When Sarah tailored her most frequently worn pieces to fit her shape, the change was immediate. Clients responded differently. Meetings flowed. She felt more confident because the clothing supported her, not distracted her. Fit doesn't just make you look good—it reinforces authority, credibility, and respect.


Open your closet now—pick one outfit you've been wearing a lot. Does it truly fit your shape, or are you letting the wrong fit hold you back? Hit reply and tell me what you found.
