If you wear tights (recommended), wear skin colour.

Your interview is coming up and you are feeling very confident. You’ve thought through how your personal presentation will sound and you are ready to go. You are confident that you have anticipated the questions they might ask you and have prepared some great answers. You know what questions you need to ask them. Clean copies of your CV or resume are sitting in your briefcase. But before you go any further, you’d better ask yourself these questions and be sure you manage the visual impact:

What should I wear?
Generally, it's a good idea to wear a suit for a job interview. Go with something simple, not too stylized, in a neutral tone. The more conservative your field is, then the more conservative your suit should be For example, if you're applying for a job in an investment firm, go with a navy blue or dark grey suit; on the other hand if it’s with an advertising or PR company something more trendy or colourful would probably be OK. Dress suitably for success in your chosen field.

What if my interview is for a job in a casual setting? It's always a good idea to match your interview clothing to the prospective job. If you are applying for a job working in a machine shop, you will look out of place wearing a formal suit. However, with that in mind, you should dress up a little more than you would for a day at work.

Personal Presentation Tips for Women

Wearing a dress is probably not the best idea. You might get by if you wear a colour-coordinated jacket, pastel blouse, and long skirt or trousers. But you can't go wrong wearing a navy-blue or medium- grey business suit, with a plain white, long-sleeved, blouse.

Avoid bright or odd-coloured nail polish. Clear or no nail polish is best.

Apply makeup sparingly and avoid unusual or bright colours. Definitely don't apply sparkles to your hair or face.

If you wear earrings, wear small, conservative ones. Wear only one per ear in the traditional earlobe position. It's better to carry a briefcase or portfolio into an interview than a handbag.

Getting this right boosts your confidence and feeling confident will ensure you have a better interview. There is one other thing that tends to sap confidence: being a little overweight can make you feel a little uncomfortable and is often the result of a lack of confidence, so its a vicious circle.
