I think a man dresses for success by attempting to look professional and polished.

A woman dresses for success by focusing on how to look POWERFUL or perhaps AUTHORITATIVE or even SEXY.

I guess I'm just biased, but I think "professional and polished" is a superior way forward.

Women still get by on their looks and appearing non-threatening to men. They can be very manipulative to get what they want. Disregard what you see in the prime time soaps - in real life women view other women as competitors, not as colleagues to gossip workplace and relationship stuff with during lunch breaks.

I prefer "polished" too. A woman doesn't have to look like a man: paint suits, tatoos, etc. to get what she wants.

“A woman dresses for success by focusing on how to look POWERFUL or perhaps AUTHORITATIVE or even SEXY.”

It depends on the woman. As much as as the FemiNazis deny this truth, BEAUTY IS POWER, and beautiful women naturally wield power over men which homely women can’t. But a woman needs to remember that power acquired mainly through beauty (not professionalism or competence) is a double-edged sword. When beauty wanes with age (as it always does), competence and professionalism should strongly remain.
