Welcome To Glion - Dress Code

Future Glioners, are you ready? Struggling with your suitcases? Struggling with the dress code? 

Fair enough! Let’s try to put down the main points together! 😊

Excited to start your new adventure? 

First thing first, S1 is about Practical Arts; you will have the opportunity to learn and practice in a real kitchen👨🏽‍🍳, serving as a waiter/waitress and bartender in the fully renewed Bellevue restaurant, Skyline bar and Fresh restaurant, working at the Front Desk and as concierge, and also as housekeeper. You will have a complete insight of  the daily operations of a Hotel!

For Practical Arts, uniform will be provided to you upon arrival👍🏼: however you are required to have your own: 

-  Black classical leather shoes

 Tips for ladies  💃🏼: we know how many nice shoes there are around..! However, trust me, you will not go far with a fancy pair (unfortunately this is the truth!). During your vacations, try to notice the shoes that a flight assistant has on a plane, or in a reception lobby. The point of the shoe usually is round, the heels are low and wide; this is also to guarantee you more stability in the restaurant. And again, you will wear it for 8 hours per day (even longer during your internship), so make sure to try them carefully and have two different pairs; it’s important to change the shoes now and then, your feet will definitely hurt less 😄 

Personal suggestion: You can bring perhaps white simple T-shirts to wear under the kitchen uniform or housekeeping uniform 

Men are NOT allowed to wear beards during Practical Arts 

Ladies must tie back long hair in a chignon 👱🏼‍♀️(nail polish 💅🏼should be removed during when working in the kitchen) 

Uniforms are changed every day 

(Tip: Evaluation of Practical Arts also takes in consideration motivation, adaptability, perseverance, initiative, general appearance, team spirit and self-control) 👏🏼👍🏼😃

• Dark colored shoes (For Practical Arts, shoes must be black)
