Interview clothes

[BeginningToWobble]

So, after being roundly slated on Monday night for my appalling interview wardrobe, I'm here for advice.

Smart casual (the interview panel were wearing scruffy jeans and one had a white aertex, the other a violent green checked shirt.)

I would wear either dark blue jeans or black jeans. I also have black linen trousers (from Next).

I have a jacket that I was advised to put in the bin

None of my shirts from before DC fit me anymore Whilst I don't seem to have put too much weight on, I do seem to have changed shape and do need to start to watch what I eat. Relatively non existent in the chest department (b cup)

I have a relatively long body, so most normal shirts are actually a bit too short for me and leave a gap between trousers and bottom of shirt.

I have sweat issues, which are the best colours to hide this, which colours should I avoid? For this reason, I only want cotton shirts.

What it the job for?

I can’t advise on your current wardrobe, but I have long back problems, and hace recently discovered Gap Tall range (online, not a specific section, but a size option on many tops). It’s also very generous in the chest and very reasonably priced if you sign up for emails - they send 25-40% off several times a week.

The office of a lab, so being too smart would stand out like a sore thumb. A plain, collared proper shirt would look out of place.
Thanks for the gap tip. I've found a fair number of longer shirts but very few women's stuff seems to be cotton.

Hi OP, I have just bought this shirt which is 100% cotton. Most of the shirts seem to be.
