How should I dress for an interview in Seattle, WA?

Question

The company is very laid-back and I don't want to dress too stuffy. Plus, I am coming from the Mid-West and don't want to miss the mark on Seattle fashion. I dress well normally and usually wear a skirt and blouse with a jacket for an interview.

Answer 1

Let me tell you-as someone who lives here in Seattle, the same rules apply anywhere and if you want to make a really good impression, here are some key things:

1. No crazy hair or makeup.
2. No crazy accessories.
3. No jeans, athletic shoes, sweatpants, or sweatshirts.

A knee-length skirt, blouse, and jacket will work quite well.

Answer 2

Make sure the skirt is not too short, but the whole set sounds perfect for an interview, try using neutrals and avoid shocking colors. Also don't wear tons of make-up. Just make sure you look simple, professional and natural.

Answer 3

no matter where you interview or what the company you are interviewing at dresses like, I always think you should dress nicer than you think. If were in your shoes I would wear my nice black and white kneelength tweed skirt, red turtleneck silk sweater, black kneehigh boots and black leather jacket. Nice, polished, not a suit, but very elegant.

Answer 4

You should wear something w/structure... like a good jacket, wide-leg trousers....

Answer 5

thats good.....................................................................
