Which for an interview?

[Shutupandcry]

This is for a professional role (physiotherapist) but we wear a uniform so I don’t have a plethora of ‘work clothes’. We have been isolating due to covid until yesterday so I couldn’t go to the shops and the two pairs of trousers I ordered don’t fit right so I’m down to what I have!

Option 1:
Smart black jeans
Dark floral blouse
Tailored coat

Option 2:
Slim fitting black jumper
Dark leopard print long pleated skirt
Black boots and dark coat

Option 3:
Leather look leggings
Smart jumper
Boots

Please help me!

You say one pair of slim black trousers are too long.

Could you take them up with sellotape? It won’t last, but it would work for an interview. If you have time to get to a haberdashery department you can get iron on tape to make it permanent. There are plenty of videos online to show you how to do it.

When I have new trousers which I think might shrink I just fold up them inside to the length I want, and leave turning them up properly until they have been washed and worn a bit.

one pair are too long

Turn them up: turn inside out, fold ends up to correct length, sew or stick down, iron while still inside out to give sharp hem. It will take 15 mins max.

Definitely option 2.

Option 2. Smart enough.

Option 2 is fine

@HeddaGarbled @Whatdayisitnow I could try and do that but in a way I’d rather get my £30 back as I will never wear them again otherwise! If one of my other options would work. I think number 2 is a winner!

Definitely take the trousers up!

Definitely 2 and that was without the photo. Definitely, definitely 2 with the photo. No way would I wear jeans to an interview. There's no such thing as 'smart jeans'.

Thanks @VirginiaQ. I’m nervous now- I was feeling really confident in that outfit but now thinking I should attempt to turn up my ugly trousers. Do all women just wear black trousers to interview?!

2 even without the photos, lovely outfit!

Outfit 2 is lovely. Wear it with confidence.

Thanks @Awrite @De88!

Option 2. Looks lovely in the photo.

I don't think jeans or leggings are appropriate for an interview.

2 looks great!

Would Vinted be any help? You can get stuff very cheaply. But if the time frames doesn't work I would say the skirt.

I'm a HPC manager. As long as you were the best candidate, you could wear any of these outfits and it would make no difference as to whether I'd want to employ you or not.
But, if I did take you on, I would forever remember you as the one who wore leather look leggings to their interview

Outfit 2 sounds lovely, but 1 is also absolutely fine.

Option 2.

Option 1 ok if it is a video interview. Jean style trousers not usually a good look for interviews.

Option 2

Outfit 2 did the trick- I got the job!
