What Should I Wear to a Job Interview?
Briefly

The article discusses the importance of attire in professional settings, emphasizing that while clothing can convey individuality and confidence, it should not distract from professionalism. It suggests that candidates should gauge the office culture and might opt for traditional corporate wear, like suits, embellished tastefully with details such as shoes, jewelry, and scarves. Fashion designer Catherine Holstein provides insights on choosing versatile pieces like black pants and crisp shirts while advising moderation in accessories to reveal personality without overwhelming potential employers.
Just because the idea of a suit seems yawningly familiar does not mean it has to be boring. It is what you wear with the suit, the details, that matters.
Organizations often make judgments between different in a good way and too different, looking for someone who meshes with the company culture.
Catherine Holstein emphasized that you can never go wrong with a great pair of black pants, a black sweater, or a crisp white shirt.
Using jewelry as a talking point should be limited to one piece, suggesting hidden depths and out-of-the-box thinking without overwhelming the interviewer.
