You should dress for the occasion in nice, clean, pressed clothing. If you are up for an office job, a suit and tie with shined shoes is best. If you are going for a manual job that gets dirty, your cleanest work related clothing is best. You will want to wear clothing that is similar to what the person doing the hiring will be wearing. It is better to be over-dressed rather than under-dressed for the interview.
The shoes do make a difference; if they are leather make sure they are freshly polished. You do not need to get a new hair style, but make sure it is neat.
Many companies have their dress code on their website. Take a look to see if it is there for your viewing. If all else fails, call the HR department to get guidance. They want to have you look good as they have gone over your application/resume and verified your qualifications.
Good Luck!

The interview dress code would depend on the profession you are in. Normally, formal dress code is appropiate for any jobs in the corporate sector. You have to check how people dress in the profession you are seeking to get in and accordingly dress for the interview .

Today spoke about candidates for jobs wearing jeans, purple sweat suits, and spike heels or sneakers. Other applicants aren't afraid to show pierced body parts and spiked hair. Still others chewed gum or showed up in rumpled clothes or with their pants falling down. One recruiter even told a candidate with his trousers down below his hips, to "Pull your pants up." According to the article, the outlandish dress costs some candidates the job.
Does it really make a difference how you dress and act? In many cases, it does. I'll never forget the gentleman I interviewed for an accounting position. He had been out of work for a few months and wanted to show me why. He took off his jacket, unbuttoned his shirt and started to pull down his pants (this is a true story) to show me the scar from a boat propeller that had injured him.
He didn't get the job. Neither did the young lady in a bright red skirt so short and tight that she could hardly sit down!
In the conservative business climate I worked in at the time, appearances did matter. In other environments it isn't as important. However, it does make sense to dress your best for the interview, regardless of the dress code at the organization. If you're in doubt about how to dress for an interview, it is best to err on the side of conservatism. It is much better to be overdressed than underdressed (or undressed).
According to Kim Zoller at Image Dynamics, 55% of another person's perception of you is based on how you look. Her Dressing for Success information gives some tips on how to look your best, without necessarily spending a lot of money. Here's a quick look at the basics:
Women
* Solid color, conservative suit
* Coordinated blouse
* Moderate shoes
* Limited jewelry
* Neat, professional hairstyle
* Tan or light hosiery
* Sparse make-up & perfume
* Manicured nails
* Portfolio or briefcase
Men
* Solid color, conservative suit
* White long sleeve shirt
* Conservative tie
* Dark socks, professional shoes
* Very limited jewelry
* Neat, professional hairstyle

Well pressed pants, also. Shoes and socks that Match.....shined shoes and black socks

Casual, for women is a blue, navy, black, grey suit or slacks. men, dark suits. It depends the place where you are having the interview. For example, if your interview is with a corporation or deparment store, I would wear a nice suit.

You should scope out the way people in similar positions dress. Then dress just a little nicer on the day you are trying to get hired. Don't overdo it.

semi formal. If you are a guy, wear nice trousers and a shirt. Same if you are a woman, just wear a decent length skirt. It's important to look as if you've made an effort to present yourself well. Good luck!

Keep these rules, and you'll do fine.
1. Don't wear bright colours or a loud pattern.
2. Make sure your clothing is clean and well pressed.
3. Be comfortable in what you wear - if it is ill-fitting, you will fidget.
Good luck!
