PLEASE HELP WHICH SUIT??

So I have a job interview tomorrow and I got this really cute yellow tweed suite but its a skirt instead of pants.
1. can I wear for the interview (its for a position as an Interior Designer)?

2. Can I wear nude color shoes? I have white but not really loving them with it

3. Should I just stick to the traditional back suit??

Thanks guys, I really need help!!Chat Icon

I think because you are in a creative field the yellow would look great! It's not like you are interviewing for a lawyer position or something more conservative. Good luckChat Icon

i think it sounds cute - especially for an interview for an artistic type job

wear the nude shoes - white would look too barbie

edited to add: everyone has a different opinion on what is traditional. my mom would say traditional is navy - so it's not like you're required to wear black anyway!

thats why I put what the actual Job was for thinking I'm in more of a creative/trendy field so I thought it might be more acceptable. Chat Icon

And the nude shoes are really okay??

I personally would not wear a yellow suit on an interview - creative field or not. As an Interior Designer you need to look polished and put together (Not that you wouldn't in yellow) I think you should still go for a more classic look


If you decide to go w/ the yellow, I'd do Nude shoes

GOOD LUCK on your interview !!

I am also in a creative field and I vote strongly for the yellow suit! You need to show your creativity and boldness (untraditional color) yet professionalism ( it's still a suit). If it is a great suit that fits you well you should go for it and forgo the black!

i like black suit for first interview but spice it up w/ a cool jewelry piece

second interview do the yellow with nude shoes
aside from flip flops, i never feel white shoes are a look i can pull off

Def #1- yellow tweed. It'll show off your style and personality. Black suit is boring and I wouln't my designer to be boring.

Good luck!

yellow all the way - It lets you stand out, and shows that you have a sense of personal style, awareness of trends and aren't afraid to take risks... these are all things I would want for a designer.

I would stick with a dark suit and then style it up with funky accessories to show your creative flair.

Sorry but the black suit EVERYBODY wears. It is just SO BORING Chat Icon
It is spring, it is an interview, not a funeral.

I say stand out and wear the yellow!
