For a job interview, wearing a trouser suit, should a lady wear her blouse tucked in or out?

Answer 1

if its short leave it out. if its long tuck it in and just let a fold hang over the top of the trousers.

Answer 2

It really does depend on the blouse - the ones with the 'u' sort of shape at the hem are made specifically to be left out but still look smart whereas the straight edged ones were for tucking in.

On the other hand, it can also depend on the trousers that you're wearing and whether everything was bought as a set.

As a general rule, I would always go with wearing a suit jacket if it's a blouse that isn't meant to be tucked in - in this case, the blouse is less formal, but the jacket makes up for it.

Answer 3

Depends on the type and style of blouse. Some womens blouses are meant to be worn out and not tucked it *there is usually not enough material to tuck in if that's the case*.

Also as a lady you should wear a suit skirt and blazer, it's more professional than pants.

If you do wear a dress shirt that is not tucked in - it usually looks better with a blazer over it.

Good luck!

Answer 4

I think the main deciding point is your shape and height. I always wear trouser suits and look smart. I am slim and only 5.1". However, I look taller because I have long legs and a short body. If I wear a shirt or blouse and it's tucked in, it emphasies how short my body is and therefore I tend to wear tops out - though make sure they are never too long and never ever longer than my jacket. If you have long body and short legs, then I would wear top in.

Answer 5

I always wear a suit jacket when I go to a job interview, so it typically doesn't matter if the blouse is tucked in or not. If you are going without a jacket, I would definitely wear a belt and tuck the blouse in.

Answer 6

First depends on cut and style of the blouse.Secondly,the cut of the jacket and thirdly,the style of the trousers.Only you can a dequately assess these and conclude.However,if you're wearing a regular suit with a lady's shirt,tuck in.You will look smarter and better presented that way.

Answer 7

It depends. If the blouse is fitted and is tailored nicely at the bottom then I think it would look good tucked out. Otherwise, in is always a safe choice.

Answer 8

Depends on the blouse, some are meant to be tucked in, some are not. As long as they look polished and professional you should be all right.

Answer 9

Wear your blouse tucked in.

Answer 10

If it is a short blouse (no more than 1inch below the trouser waistline, assuming they aren't high waisted trousers) then out. if they are high waisted trousers and it is a short shirt, then out. if it is a longer shirt or you plan on wearing a jacket, then tucked in.

Answer 11

It depends on how long the blouse in, waist length blouses look better loose, where longer style blouses can look a little bit scruffy loose and look better tucked in.
