Hollister Co. - Look Policy

Look Policy

Hollister Co. has their employees abide by a dress code. Employees must wear contemporary Hollister clothing. Females are told to wear minimal makeup only in natural tones, and little to no jewelry is expected for girls while guys may not wear jewelry. Girls are only allowed to wear a pair of earrings that are stones. Everyone must wear navy, grey, or white, with an additional color such as olive or burgundy being added depending on the season. With each floorset change, employees are given a choice of items to purchase with a 50% discount, called AAA (Abercrombie Associates with Attitude), with the selected looks displayed on the employee AAA chart, usually posted on the door in the stockroom. For the summer season, short sleeved shirts and polos are the usual attire for males. Year round, black clothing is strictly prohibited. Women are asked to wear dark wash skinny jeans, preferably Hollister brand jeans, and if the jeans are not in fact Hollister they may not have any back pocket stitching or any logos on them. Males must also wear dark wash slim jeans, and abide by the same rules as women, for example keeping a clean and professional hair style, and a clean shaven face. To go along with the new redesigned jeans for 2011, associates jeans must be cuffed at the bottom as well. Hollister Co. prohibits any type of shoe that is not a white, blue or leather flip flop, for both men and women. If an employee would like to wear sneakers, the only acceptable brands are Converse, Vans and Toms in the season's specified colors (usually navy or grey), and must be slip on style shoes. All attire must always be clean and professional looking and is subject to daily approval.

Famous quotes containing the word policy:

    We are apt to say that a foreign policy is successful only when the country, or at any rate the governing class, is united behind it. In reality, every line of policy is repudiated by a section, often by an influential section, of the country concerned. A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)

    In the field of world policy I would dedicate this Nation to the policy of the Good Neighbor—the neighbor who resolutely respects himself and, because he does, respects the rights of others—the neighbor who respects his obligations and respects the sanctity of his agreements in and with a world of neighbors.
    Franklin D. Roosevelt (1882–1945)
