Is this appropriate for a job interview?

[SquedgieBeckenheim]

I have a job interview later this month and I really really want this job. I'm qualified for it, but I know first impressions are important too. I'm never sure what to wear for these things. In my industry we wear uniforms for day to day.
I really like this dress, but is it too bright? Should I go more conservative?
Dress

Link doesn't work

It looks absolutely fine to me - I interview people all the time and would think this was fine. Suppose it may depend on your industry though.

No not appropriate, looks like you're going to a summer garden party. You need something professional looking, not fun.

I think it's absolutely fine.

I think it looks ok, it can be very smart with the right shoes and attitude. Yes it's bright but I have seen people wear bright things at interviews and in the office so I don't see why not. I hope you get the job x

Link worked for me. I don't know what the job is which maybe relevant but to me (lawyer) that is a very casual style of dress and I wouldn't feel comfortable in it for an interview. The colour is not necessarily a problem - bright is fine - but I'd prefer a more structured shape without frills (and i always feel a bit "hanging" in wrapovers and always keep checking the neck and hemline are not gaping.

No-too ruffly, too "fun".

Are people looking at a duffest dress? Bright is fine, frilly is not.

Different*

Didn't realise you had to be boring at a job interview! I'm pretty sure there are no rules against ruffles (it's barely ruffley anyway)

In my opinion too ruffly and bright. It depends on the industry but in mine I would think it doesn't say "Professional".

I don't think it's appropriate.

Depends on the industry, but I think it's not business-like enough for an interview. I suppose with a smart black jacket, tights and shoes, you could make it look more formal but really, I'd choose something more formal in the first place.

Really depends on the job. I would always wear a suit for interview. You won't be judged for being over dressed but could be for being under dressed

I work in a really casual, fun industry and I wouldn't wear that to an interview. I like 8t though!

With a jacket and smart shoes it could be work wear if your office environment was smart casual, but for an interview you need to up the ante and dress more formally than for a day at the office: tailored jacket with a structured dress or a blouse and smart tailored trousers or skirt, I mean in a stiff fabric that's cut (tailored) to the shape of your body, rather than a soft fabric that clings. I know it sounds odd, but you also want your clothes to be anonymous, so you're not " the candidate with the red dress", you can still wear your interesting shoes or pretty blouse, but what the panel will remember should be "the candidate with the impressive amount of experience ".

Not professional enough imo.

i wore this to my last interview and was also worried about it being too bright. I wore it with a sharp black jacket and not only did I get the job, but the interviewer asked me where it was from because it "was smart but showed personality".

I now wear it with an orange cardigan or jacket as well as the black one and it will work with black tights for the winter.

It's not available anymore but something similar might work for you?

Not sure why the pic didn't post.

Looks lovely! I would wear it with tights and a black blazer and something like these: www.tesco.com/direct/ff-sensitive-sole-block-heel-pointed-toe-court-shoes/373-4044.prd

Titty Where is that dress from? It's lovely

I think it probably is a little too frilly for an interview (and I say that as someone who always wears something bright or statementy to interviews in a creative industry)

I'd happily wear any of these, suitably smarted up with accessories, jacket, bag etc (if I ever wore dresses...!)

Debenhams. It was only £25 too!

God no, that's not appropriate. That's not a work dress!

I'm going to search for it now! Thanks
