<p>Swiss bankers may soon be allowed to wear red underwear, black nail polish &#8211; and even eat garlic.</p>
<p>Banking giant UBS said is revising its 44-page dress code telling its Swiss staff how to present themselves, which sparked worldwide ridicule for its micro-management of their dressing and dining habits.</p>
<p>The code instructs employees on everything from their breath &#8211; no garlic or onions, please &#8211; to their underwear, which should be skin-coloured.</p>
<p>&#8220;We&#8217;re reviewing what is important to us,&#8221; UBS spokesman Andreas Kern said.</p>
<p>He said the bank would issue a pared-down booklet with more general guidelines on how to impress customers with a polished presence and sense of Swiss precision and decorum.</p>
<p>The existing code tells female employees how to apply make-up, what kind of perfume to wear and what colour stockings are acceptable. It advises them not to show roots if they colour their hair and to avoid black nail polish.</p>
<p>&#8220;You can extend the life of your knee socks and stockings by keeping your toenails trimmed and filed,&#8221; Zurich-based UBS told its female staff.</p>
<p>&#8220;Always have a spare pair: stockings can be provisionally repaired with transparent nail polish and a bit of luck.&#8221;</p>
<p>Men are told how to knot a tie, to make sure they get a haircut every month and to avoid unruly beards and earrings.</p>
<p>&#8220;Glasses should always be kept clean,&#8221; the code instructs. &#8220;On the one hand this gives you optimal vision, and on the other hand dirty glasses create an appearance of negligence.&#8221;</p>
