Starbucks Tightens Dress-Code Rules for Its Baristas
This article is for subscribers only.
Starbucks Corp. is updating its dress code for baristas to make it more consistent across North American stores, part of a broader plan to revive sales by revamping the look and feel of cafes.
Starting May 12, baristas will wear solid black tops, a change from prior practice allowing any color. Baristas can wear their own attire, and Starbucks will provide two shirts from a new company-branded line at no cost.
