I'm a bit overweight and have invested in a walking desk for work that I'm really loving.

BUT

Sometimes I have to have meetings via zoom and I want to look smart.

I'm looking for outfits I can wear on the treadmill but that won't look out of place on a zoom

Can anyone suggest anything?

So during meetings, you have the appearance of someone walking, or will you be standing still?

Presume you’re not going to be getting a sweat up. Plain, high quality T-shirt with jacket over the top - blazer, bomber, barn jacket, Chanel-style … as you like. And any trousers on the bottom - they won’t be seen.

I won't be walking during meetings, no and you're right about the trousers.

No sweat on.

Good idea about the bomber and T. I'm not sure I'm young enough for it but will give it a go - I'm mid forties

Who has high quality T shirts? I've been swizzled a few times over this

I think a basic shirt in a plain colour, with a jersey or wool mix jacket on top, depending how hot you get. A shirt with a collar always looks smarter than a T-shirt. I get mine from Marks, but they're in every shop.
Then whatever trousers are comfortable.

I meant not cheap thin floppy fabric - so any brand so long as it has a bit of weight/structure to it.
