周五便装日成走秀日职员表示压力山大

Mini-skirts have become a norm on dress down Friday as many people gear up for the night ahead and hit the town straight after work.

Many companies enforce a 'dress down Friday' policy as an incentive for office workers to let their hair down at the end of the week.

But according to new research, for many the opposite effect is achieved as people get stressed about what to wear on their day 'off' from the office uniform.

Deadlines and budgets aside, one in ten workers cite dress down Friday as the most stressful time of the week and 15 percent become so stressed by what to wear they even call in sick.

Nearly a quarter have even been late due to indecision and one in five have returned home to change after leaving the house.

Careful planning is essential with one third of us beginning to plan our Friday outfit on Thursday lunchtime with one percent beginning the decision-making process as early as Monday evening.

And it seems that 'dressing down' requires a lot more effort than meets the eye with a staggering 43 percent spending more time on hair, makeup and grooming on a Friday compared to any other day of the working week, with 24 percent choosing the day to experiment with their look.

This experimentation, which adds an average of fifteen minutes to an individual’s morning routine, has also had an effect on our pockets as 50 percent claim to spend more on their Friday fashion than they do for the remainder of the week.
