I have nothing suitable! Size 14-16. Very chunky caves so cigarette pants look awful. Fairly busty so find getting shirts that don't gape hard. Interview next Friday so need to get to real shop rather than order on line.

Formal interview for a fairly senior professional position. Current role is in Uber casual company that if you wore a suit you'd be asked if you'd be in courtHmm Smile.

I don't have a huge budget, maybe 80 in total

Massive TIA if anyone can help

Following. I need a new interview suit but have no funds!

Puffin nose maybe we could go halves on a suit and share it Grin.

In all seriousness though if you are returning to work there are charities that help you with interview clothes.

I tend to avoid dresses (chunky legs) but it may be the cheapest way of looking smart. Maybe with black tights and shoes. Next has some nice professional dresses on it's website

A trouser suit is much better than a skirt/dress for an interview. I share you problem with button-down shirts, so wear a blose with no buttons instead. You should be able to get properly kitted out in Next fairly cheaply.
