‘Men with pink shirts earn more’
Pink is the colour of a man! Men who wear pink colour shirts to work earn £1,000 more per year than those who favour traditional colours such as white or blue, a new UK study has found.
Researchers also found men who wear pink are more likely to get compliments from female colleagues and are more confident characters in their office.
A poll of 1,500 male office workers found a typical pink shirt wearer earns £1,000 more a year than those who opt for other colours, the Daily Mail reported.
One in four men feels more attractive in a pink shirt and those who frequently wear purple or lilac have the most office romances, while those who prefer blue have the least.
The research also found that men who wear pink are also twice as likely to have a Master’s degree than those who favour white shirts, with one in ten pink shirt wearers having a PHD.
“You can tell a lot about someone by the colour they wear. Pink is a colour more men have been embracing recently and it’s encouraging that they are not afraid to experiment with brighter colours,” Stephanie Thiers-Ratcliffe, international marketing manager for Cotton USA, which commissioned the study, said.
