random question about attire
This is really random, but these days do bankers more often wear two button or three button suits? Is it different for a first year analyst?
Also, by business casual, is it necessary to wear a blazer?
Thanks.

two or three is fine, one button is too trendy, and 4 makes you look like some clown in the NFL.
As far as the blazer goes, its not necessary but a lot of people will just wear one to work, and leave it on their chair all day
1 button is acceptable in certain situations (generally formal), although there are "trendy" type jackets that are 1 button but not formal attire.
I guess I'm not trendy, because I wouldn't wear them.
But seriously, 2 or 3 is fine..whichever you prefer.
I would possibly wear a nice one button suit if i was going out to a club or really upscale nightspots, but I def would not wear one to work...also Im a pretty tall guy, so im not sure a one button would look that great, would look better on a shorter guy.
