When dressing for an interview, common sense applies. Don’t wear spike heels, short skirts, or jeans, for example, but do wear closed toe pumps, dress suits, or designer slacks.
Interview wardrobe advice abounds, even the New York Times and USA Today have published articles about the right type of interview suits for women, and while we here at DressMakerInABox.com agree that a professional interview suit can help you get the job, we believe you can dress professionally and uniquely without over thinking it. Here’s how:
1. Choose interesting colors. Grey and beige suits have their place, but you won’t stand out in neutral colors. Choose out of the ordinary colors such as a dark green or a burgundy.
2. If you choose to go with a black women’s interview suit (we don’t’ think you can go wrong), make sure the clothing is a crisp shade of black. The next most important part of a black interview suit is to accessorize with something bold; wear a button down shirt beneath the blazer that is a color other than white, such as pink or red. You might also try wearing a striking pendant or a fun belt for flare.
3. An interview suit for women can be the typical matching pants/skirt with blazer and white button-down shirt, but not every suit has to be one solid color. Try something like the Scarf Wrap Suit.You still look professional, but you are fashionable; the best of both worlds.
