All black office workers in Sydney? Makes sense in the climate? Sorry Joy, doesn't make sense to me. I worked in Sydney for many years, never saw any trend towards wearing black. And black in Sydney climate in summer would be far too hot. Winter maybe. When were you in Sydney? If you were talking about the staff in the fancy hotels, black may have been their uniform. And I believe the staff at David Jones department stores used to always wear black with a white shirt or blouse. But not office workers.
