hello I'm Alan Whitfield with Harry
Rosen we often get asked about how to
pack for a two or three day business
trip and with a little planning you can
travel light especially if you take
advantage of your hotel laundry service
last minute packing generally leads to
over packing and wrinkled clothes
instead take a moment to study your
agenda to determine how many meetings or
social occasions you expect to have what
we have laid out here represents a
typical wardrobe for a two to three day
trip assuming you're also wearing an
outfit on the plane you'll notice that
all of these items can be coordinated
with each other the jacket and the
trousers can either be dressed up or
dress down no one wants to check luggage
and a good carry-on a sturdy garment bag
like these will carry everything you
need the hanger on the garment bag can
take up to three pairs of trousers if
your trip requires a longer stay place
your jacket on top and cover it in dry
cleaners plastic and push out any air
bubbles to prevent wrinkles if a longer
stay is required you can layer on
another jacket and more dry cleaner
plastic the first items in your carry-on
should be your shoes pack them heeled
down evenly across the floor of the bag
to provide a good foundation for the
rest of your items use the belts and
socks as shoe trees to support your
shoes shape use your shoes duster bags
to protect your shoes and keep your
other clothes clean now fill in the gaps
with your sunglasses case your rolled-up
underwear t-shirts and sweatpants try to
make the base as flat and even as
possible
you can either roll your ties and pack
them into the gaps or fold them into
four and insert them into the inside
pocket of your jacket over top place
your knits and shirts folded from the
launderer one of the key tricks to
wrinkle free packing is to make sure
that you unpack and hang everything the
moment you arrive at your hotel room if
your rooms not ready ask the concierge
to hang your garment bag for you plan on
wearing your overcoat on the plane to
avoid unnecessary weight on your dress
shirts now you're all ready to go thank
you and safe travels
you
