Although, it impacts us the real question does it have a positive or a negative impact. There are some organizations, who expect their employees to follow the clothing norms. These expectations can affect the employees indirectly in a way that they are being constantly forced to prioritize something that is completely irrelevant to the job role.
On the contrary, some believe it is rather hard to focus on certain official clothing rules that act has great hindrance while working effectively. For instance, the time dedicated just to choose which attire is suitable could be very time consuming or rather needs to be planned a day before the meeting.

There are certain perquisites required for every attire based on material and accessories. This arrangements can severely affect the time allocated for work unless the employee does it out of will.
