Dressing in all black for a job interview?

Question

I have a job interview tomorrow. It's not for a glamorous job or anything but I'd still like to look nice. I was thinking of wearing a black semi dressy shirt, black dress pants, and black dress shoes. Will this be okay for an interview or will I look too depressing to hire? (the clothes are all dressy, they dont look depressing or goth or anything). If this isnt a good choice, what colors should i wear and what colors should i avoid?

Answer 1

That is actually the perfrect wear for an interview. Good Luck... stay away from bright and over the top colors...

Answer 2

They say Navy Blue is a good colour to wear, because it represents loyalty - I've always worn it and have never lost a job proposal from an interview. Good Luck

Answer 3

It's not horrible, but if given the option, I'd add in some color. Do you have accessories that could liven up the black? Maybe a scarf, or a necklace that would add color? Even a sweater (perhaps just to carry with you) might help to add some brightness to your overall image.

Answer 4

In my opinion, all black is very formal in appearance.As you are interviewing for a not-so-glam job, I would suggest adding a little color to your outfit, perhaps close to your face so that when the interviewers looks at you they see a little break in the solid color. The idea that comes to mind is a pin.

Answer 5

yeah sure why not?? As long as you're dressed nice! Think before u walk out of the door, "would I hire me dressing like this?"

Answer 6

I would wear a different shirt with that, what about a nice crisp white shirt?

Answer 7

Sounds fine to me. Black isn't always "goth" and depressing you know-those are stereotypes. it is also sophisticated and formal.
