GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)
English term or phrase:business-wear
Italian translation:abbigliamento d\'affari

English to Italian translations [Non-PRO]
Textiles / Clothing / Fashion / linea di abbigliamento
English term or phrase: business-wear
un'azienda che tra le varie linee presenta anche una linea *business-wear*.
E' meglio lasciarlo in inglese o tradurlo come 'abbigliamento da ufficio', 'abbigliamento professionale', o significa più 'abiti da giorno/città' (informali, ma comunque eleganti)', o semplicemente 'eleganti' ? Voi normalmente come lo rendete ? Grazie per qualche idea !

abbigliamento d'affari
Explanation:
Il termine "business-wear" io lo tradurrei e non lo lascerei affatto. Qui di seguito due proposte possibili: "abbigliamento d'affari" o in alternativa: "abbigliamento di business". PS: L'uso di questi vestiti/abiti non si limita certamente all'ufficio, ma distinguono colui che fa affari/business. Quindi escluderei la proposta "abbigliamento da ufficio". E per motivi simili anche quella di "abbigliamento formale". Vedi tu.

agree  Mara Ballarini: abbigliamento business - non da ufficio, né formale, perché business può essere anche casual e non solo in ufficio (ufficio, persone d'affari, ecc.) Io lascerei abbigliamento business

abbigliamento da ufficio


Explanation:
che indica abbigliamento formale (abito intero e cravatta per uomo, tailleur per donna, mai jeans!) ma non un'eleganza da sera
