Pinstripe suits and job interview

wearing a pinstripe suit to a consulting job interview.... +EV or -EV?

[MrMoo]

I've worn one twice with no complaints. It's a very subtle pinstripe though. When I bought the suit I told the guy I was purchasing it for an interview. It was one of the one he recommended.

-EV. Go for the solid black. Power red tie.

If it looks gangsterish, then no, if the suit is dark and the stripes are subtle, fine. White shirt, nice tie with red in it.

less worrying about the clothes, more worrying about sounding like a douche

Yeah, no Al Capone / John Gotti look. But wearing a suit is a big step in the right direction. Good luck!

so wearing a black / dark suit with a white shirt, red tie, that would be the best idea?

Something like this.

No. Wear a nice looking suit. A red "power" tie is retarded.

It doesn't matter, what looks good on someone else may not look good on you.

If the pin stripes look good on you, wear that.
