ABSTRACT

This project was to showcase the combination of jumpsuit and jacket using plain fabric and Ankara for the production of formal occasion wear (boardroom meeting) for a young lady. The researcher produced the outfit using her own design and structure. The result was then accessed in terms of suitability of materials, suitability of the work, fit and finishings.   From the result and findings in the study, it is now clear that there are needs for creativity among young ladies attending a boardroom meeting. I therefore recommend that seminars and workshops on dress code styles and designs should be organized in order to educate people on the new things that can be worn to such occasions.

In Boardroom meetings, one needs to dress in a cooperate or formal outfit. A female worker attending a boardroom meetings should dress nice and decent in a formal manner because your appearance speaks more of you one cannot wear an outfit meant for parties to a meeting.
