Interview outfit ideas for size 14

sola82 · 13/05/2019 14:13

I'm looking to go back to work part time in September after taking time off with DS2. I have an interview next Monday but none of my old work clothes for me now I've gained weight.
Any tips for inexpensive smart interview clothes? Preferably ones that hide my stomach so I don't feel self conscious teaching a class of 15 year olds my worst subject....

Attaching a photo of me if it helps!

I'd get a nice fitting smart jacket in black, navy or dark grey. A smart jacket with a dress or a pair of trousers and a skirt/blouse makes you look confident and professional with very little effort. Loads of options in Next, MS, Oasis.

Good luck with the interview!

I’m the same size and shape as you, and funnily enough had an interview this morning Smile I highly recommend this jacket from Sainsburys, looks smart and more expensive than it is, but also nice and comfortable

It looks great with a dress and tights or with black trousers and a blouse. Would recommend Next for trousers and shoes, lots of different styles and good quality for the price.

Good luck at your interview! Flowers

I think it’s too casual.

Black trousers, black cami top and a really colourful jacket.

Villanellesproudmum What is too casual?

Thanks for the suggestions. A few people saying next so I'll have a look online (no shops near me unfortunately).

Sweetheart1313 that jacket looks really nice! Hope your interview went well.

Ah sorry I thought that was your potential outfit, completely misread it. Next is great for basics, still lots in their sale online.
