You’ve researched the company, practiced your introduction, and now you’re stuck on what to wear for your interview. Don’t worry! We’ve got loads of outfit ideas to help you shine.
The Interview Dress Code
While interview dress codes can vary by industry, the classic essentials include a sharp blazer, a well-pressed button-up shirt, tailored dress pants, and closed-toed shoes (check out some cute loafers here). But why stick to just the basics? There are plenty of chic styles to try, from asymmetrical midi dresses to striped cardigans. Your outfit is a crucial part of your first impression!
Business Casual Look
For a business casual look, opt for a stylish blouse and pants, such as a wrap top, or a belted jumpsuit. For a more formal corporate setting, a matching skirt or pantsuit is always a great choice, such as a cute pinstripe set. Bonus points if you choose colors that complement your skin tone.
Dresses
Inspired by the latest fashion trends, we recommend knitted dresses, button-ups, and plaid dresses. If you prefer a shorter dress, pair it with tights for extra coverage, or layer a strapless dress with a long-sleeved shirt underneath.
