Are these tops appropriate for the office?

[Tulipdot8]

In a debate at the moment and would appreciate some opinions. This is for a corporate office in London. These two tips would be warm just on their own no shirt underneath. A bit of mid drift showing. Thank you!

No. I don't think showing midriff is particularly professional. You are either showing a couple of inches of flabby tum - not nice - or an expanse of toned belly which will draw unwanted male attention.

No, if they're showing midrift they're not professional or appropriate for work

Even with high waisted trousers ? so only a tiny amount of stomach is showing

I'd say any midriff showing is inappropriate for work. Definitely unprofessional. Does the person deal with the public?

“Midriff”, and no it is not appropriate for the office.

No, can't really see the first one but the second is miniscule. It's lovely but not appropriate, it would ride up all the time (I've got a couple just like it so I know!)

🙄 How can you get to a stage in life where you work in a professional environment and yet seem unaware that a cropped top isn’t appropriate attire? Genuinely baffling.

That little cardi looks really bobbly. Definitely lounging at home wear and not for the office.

This is me wearing it

Lovely tops but not appropriate at all for the office

Not ok. You need a vest or cami underneath if you are set on wearing them into the office.

I'd say the cardigan is fine

They don’t look at all smart, quite frumpy and worn. Agree you need a vest or something underneath.

Even in my casual dresses office these wouldn’t be appropriate. I don’t think it’s appropriate to show your midriff in any work scenario.

Cardi is maybe ok, but not with those trousers right??

I don't think so.

No, sorry OP, not professional.

both ok......WITH something underneath, NO midriff, really unprofessional @Tulipdot8 💐

Never! So tacky to show midriff in the office

Is that really how people dress in a corporate environment these days? I know things are more casual but honestly you look like you have just rolled out of bed!

Are those your work trousers, too? As they are also a bit too casual and unstructured for work, really (especially if you are not wearing a super smart top or jacket with them). :-/

In a corporate office? No, of course it's not professional to show your midriff. I'm astonished you need to ask, quite frankly. My workplace is very casual, but not a midriff to be seen.

Sorry, but no, not appropriate at all for an office - unless you wear something underneath.

No?

They look too casual

Boggles me why you think there good in an office
