garments in Western style
In the social activities of public relations in modern society, it is generally believed that "suits and ties" are the formal attire of modern professional men. As far as job interviews are concerned, wearing a suit is also the safest and safest. Therefore, suits have generally become the first choice for many job seekers. However, wearing a suit has many advantages:
(1) color selection. Candidates had better wear dark suits. Gray, green and dark blue are all good choices. They give people the impression of being steady, reliable, loyal, simple and capable.
(2) Selection of fabrics. Wear clothes made of natural fabrics. The luster and texture of artificial fabrics give people a cheap feeling. Usually there is no attractive "drooping" feeling like clothes made of natural fabrics. Moreover, this kind of fabric often has the smell of human body and is not easy to remove. From a more subtle point of view, it is always bad for people to associate you with "man-made" because it will give people a false and lack of depth.
(3) Suits should be appropriate. Thin people, if they wear dark blue or medium-thick vertical suits, will show their slender and thin shortcomings, while wearing warm colors such as beige and mouse gray with plaid or herringbone twill patterns will look fuller and stronger. Tall and thin people should wear double-breasted or three-piece suits, and the fabrics should have texture and warmth, not narrow suits. Thin and short people wear suits and can decorate handkerchiefs with breast pockets. In order to increase the thickness of the chest, they can also put wallets, notebooks and other items in the inner bag. Fat people can wear dark blue, dark gray, dark brown and other suits to avoid beige, silver gray and other swelling colors. If it is a patterned suit, it is appropriate to use 0.5 ~ 2 cm vertical bars. The style of the suit can be straight American, which will look sharp and slim.
In addition, a double-breasted suit with four buttons can cover up a slightly stiff belly. Humpty people can also wear a three-piece suit, so as not to show the dividing line of their bodies, and try not to put anything in their pockets. Fat people should wear a three-button suit, a one-piece suit, and the V purlin is long and chic. When wearing a one-piece suit jacket, it is advisable to wear a dark coat with light pants of the same color, which can cover up the shortcomings and look handsome.
shirt
Shirts must have long sleeves. Some shirt cuffs have simple links, giving people a feeling of paying special attention to details. Shirts should be white or light blue without patterns or stripes. A shirt with interlaced letters may be good or bad for you. Some interviewers will think it represents personality, success and self-confidence, while others will think it is ostentatious and even a bit vulgar. The safest way is to avoid shirts with staggered letters. Like a suit, the ideal fabric for a shirt is natural fabric. Wear a moderately sized (stiff) cotton shirt that has been carefully sewn and professionally washed.
tie
Some experts say that when you shake hands with the interviewer, the tie is the first to attract attention. It can make an expensive suit look very cheap and improve the impression of ordinary clothes. The fabric of this tie is 100% silk. Don't use linen or wool, the former is easy to shrink, the latter is too casual. Synthetic fabrics are cheap and the knots are not good-looking. If you wear a white or light blue shirt, it is easier to choose a tie that matches it. Ties should add color to a suit and should not conflict with the pattern of the suit. The width of a tie varies with the style of clothes. When wearing a suit, the safe dress code is that the width of the tie should be close to the width of the lapel of the suit. Traditional patterns such as three-dimensional shapes, stripes, printed silk, and inconspicuous spiral fabrics are acceptable. Executives have always liked three-dimensional wide stripes, so this kind of fabric is called "power stripes". However, avoid association with dots, pictures (such as animals and hounds), moving images (such as horse clubs and golf clubs) and designers' logos. Many interviewers find logo particularly annoying and insecure, as if you need designer's approval to prove your dress taste. Wearing a tie carefully, small and tight bow ties have become popular again in recent years. Don't tie your tie outside your belt.
leather shoes
Pay attention to keep the vamp bright and the heel firm. Worn heels can make people look weak and slow. Leather shoes with shoelaces must be checked to see if the shoelaces are clean and fastened. Loose or unbuttoned shoelaces can make you feel unsafe and even trip you up. In addition, black shoes should not be matched with brown suits, which will be very uncoordinated.
socks
If you choose a pair of off-the-shoulder shoes with a low shoe surface, these are especially important for you. In any case, the color of socks should match the suit. Usually choose blue, black, dark gray or dark brown, and don't wear brightly colored or plaid socks. Socks should be long enough so as not to show furry skin when folding legs, which is very unsightly. They should be elastic enough so that they won't slip off their legs or shrink into a ball.
hair
When applying for a job, job seekers should keep their hair neat and tidy, carefully comb it, and don't give people the feeling of being shiny and slippery; Hair style is simple, simple, steady and generous, don't leave sideburns, it is best not to leave the middle part; Hair can't reach the shirt collar; It's best to shave off your beard and don't leave anyone a beard or beard.
overcoat
The heavy coat has been gradually replaced by the new light style, because it is suitable for almost all occasions and durable. In addition, people tend to subconsciously trust people who wear light-colored coats more. If you look closely, it is not difficult to find that the man who plays the positive role in the movie must have a light coat, while the negative role must be dark. So, if you want to wear a coat to the interview, please choose a light color to show that you are a trustworthy person.
Briefcase
A simple and slender briefcase is the best choice. If it suits your occupation, bring a neat folder. Avoid carrying any wallet that reminds you of a salesman. Also pay attention to whether the strap or buckle is easy to use, and pull up the bag to see if it can be opened and closed freely. Of course, don't forget to include the necessary resume and other materials.
accessory
(1) wallet. Small wallets don't bulge easily, and pockets are deformed. But what's in the wallet should be a necessity. Never put all kinds of letters of credit and family life photos in it.
(2) watches. A watch is not only used for timing, but also an ornament. Choose a high-quality brand that matches your clothes within your tolerance. Besides, you shouldn't wear a watch like Mickey Mouse.
(3) Handkerchiefs. Putting an elegant handkerchief in the small pocket at the top of the suit can not only add a man's mood, but also cover up the embarrassing situation with it.
(4) Necklaces, decorative pins, bracelets, earrings and other accessories are very taboo for male job seekers when interviewing.
Women's clothing
Dress
Women are angels who love beauty. The world is more beautiful and lovely because of them. In this fashionable and open era, women's clothing is colorful and changeable, so the dress problem is more complicated than that of men.
The general principle of ladies' dress is neat, beautiful, steady and elegant, and the color, style and size of dress should be in harmony with their age, temperament, skin color, posture, hairstyle and occupation to be hired.
The choice of clothes should be appropriate
Women's job hunting clothes are generally suitable for suits and skirts, which are the most common and stable.
interview
Appropriate dress, regardless of age, a well-tailored suit, skirt and a matching shirt or blouse, with matching trinkets, will make you look elegant and confident and leave a good impression on the other party. Never wear clothes that are too tight, too transparent and too revealing. Topless dress is generally the traditional dress for western women to participate in social activities, but it is not necessarily appropriate in China; Don't wear miniskirts (pants) and clothes with low neckline; In summer, the color of underwear (pants) should be the same as that of the coat, so as to avoid revealing the color and outline, otherwise it will make people feel indecent, elegant and frivolous, which is a taboo for job hunting. A lot of job hunting practice shows that no matter what occupation you apply for, conservative clothes will be regarded as potential candidates, and it will be easier to be hired than job seekers wearing open clothes.
shoe
Women also know how to wear shoes. The general principle is to coordinate with the whole and match with the color and style of clothes. Don't wear long, pointed high heels when interviewing. Middle-heeled shoes are the best choice, which are strong and can reflect the dignity of professional women. Boots with novel design will also look confident and decent. But when you put on boots, you should pay attention to the fact that the hem of the skirt is longer than the end of the boots.
socks
You can't take off your socks. Fashion designers agree that flesh color is the most suitable clothing for business occasions. Just to be on the safe side, put a spare pair in the bag to avoid silk loss and replace it in time. Besides, no matter how beautiful your legs are, don't show your bare legs during the interview.
decoration
(1) Briefcase or handbag. Take only one, not both. In most interview situations, carrying a briefcase is more authoritative than carrying a small bag. You can put the basic contents of your handbag in a small strapless bag and put it in a briefcase, but don't fill it up. If you are short, the bag should not be too big, which will be extremely uncoordinated.
(2) hats. Whether you wear a hat or not, you must be careful. If your hat goes well with your whole body, please choose a hat that is neither frilly nor gorgeous but elegant. Generally speaking, it is annoying to wear a soft wide-brimmed hat with a veil on business occasions.
(3) jewelry. Wear as little jewelry as possible. You should avoid wearing rings on several fingers like gypsies. Thumb rings are unacceptable. Earrings should be small and inconspicuous. In order to make you feel comfortable and concentrate, don't wear earrings that are too long to avoid jingling or touching your neck or even hanging on your clothes. Plain necklaces are fine, but don't wear fake pearls or gorgeous artificial jewelry. Lovely bracelets are perfectly acceptable, but trinkets on bracelets should be avoided, as should other jewelry engraved with your initials. Don't wear anklets during the interview. In short, the important principle of wearing jewelry is: less is beauty.
(4) glasses. Glasses will add color to some people's appearance, and may also make some people appear uncoordinated. Try to choose the frame that suits you and the style should be new. In addition, never wear sunglasses (goggles) to the interview, and of course, never wear a mirror. If you must wear glasses, you can choose contact lenses.
(5) scarves. A beautiful scarf can make the finishing touch. Some ladies like blue-gray clothes, but wearing blue-gray clothes often darkens their faces. If it is paired with a colorful and enthusiastic nylon scarf, it can achieve a vibrant effect. If you wear a navy suit, you should wear a pure white scarf, which can not only set off red lips and black eyes, but also maintain a navy blue refreshing temperament and set off women's agility and decisiveness. Other young women like to wear silver-gray clothes. Silver gray is an elegant and generous color, but if the scarf is not matched properly, it will look dull.
(6) silk scarves. The elegant and exquisite features of silk scarves can best set off the beauty of women, but when choosing silk scarves, we must pay attention to the coordination with clothes. For example, colored silk scarves can be matched with plain clothes, and plain silk scarves are suitable for gorgeous clothes.
hairstyle
Before choosing a hairstyle, you should first analyze and study your face shape, and then choose the hairstyle that suits your face shape best after a thorough understanding. Generally speaking, you can master the following principles:
(1) High angle and low frontal angle. If your face is at a high angle, comb the tips of your hair down to make bangs or waves, so that your hair covers part of your forehead; If the forehead angle is low, the hair tips should be combed as far away from the forehead as possible. If you prefer bangs, it must be short and never lower than the hairline to avoid making your forehead look lower.
(2) Wide frontal angle and narrow frontal angle. The forehead is wide, the ends of the hair should be combed from both sides to the middle, and the forehead that is too wide should be covered with waves. For young ladies with narrow foreheads, the situation is just the opposite. Hair should be combed back along both sides. If you have bangs, don't let curly hair extend to the front of your temples.
(3) High cheekbones and low cheekbones. The cheekbones are high, and the hair in the temples should be combed forward, exceeding the ear line and covering the cheekbones. The bangs can be a little longer, but don't comb them in the middle. As for young ladies with low cheekbones, the hair on both sides should be combed back, not over the ear line, and the temples can be curled, so it is better to separate them in the middle.
(4) big nose and small nose. If your nose is big, comb your hair high or backward, and avoid the middle part, because the middle part will make your nose look bigger, so it is best not to have bangs. Young ladies with small noses should never comb their hair. They should let the bangs droop and cover the hairline, but they should not stay too long.
(5) The chin protrudes and the chin contracts. Hair protruding from the chin, sides and forehead should be combed upward to expose the hairline, and the back of the head should be combed slightly upward. Hair on chin, forehead and temples should be combed forward, covered with sea waves, and the hair on the back of the head should be low and full.
(6) The neck is thick and short. Comb your hair around, keep it short and never let it cover your hairline. The neck is slender, and the hair should be combed back to avoid choosing a shorter hairstyle.
Make up/make up/make up/make up/make up/configure/make up/make up (a bed)
For female job seekers, make-up must adhere to the principle of light weight, and no heavy makeup is allowed.
(1) lips. Lips are the most colorful, vivid and attractive part of the face, so make your lips look moist anyway. Young ladies should use purple lipstick and avoid red or orange. Too sharp lips will give the impression of a big mouth and make examiners afraid to avoid it. Don't draw the lip line too deep, it will make your mouth look prominent and fake.
(2) eyes. The eyes are the windows to the soul. Therefore, the role of eyes in the interview is to gently lift your feet. In order to make your eyes vivid during the interview, you should do some retouching before the interview. For example, a lady can stroke her eyebrows to make them more attractive. If your eyes are small, you can gently draw a circle around your eyes, but you can't draw too deep and too deep, and don't show traces of modification. People with single eyelids don't have to pull double eyelids. Some eyes conveyed by single eyelids are more frank and kind. If you are nearsighted, squint and blink, it is necessary to wear a pair of glasses during the interview. Don't let your eye problems delay your chances of winning.
(3) the nose. When we say cosmetic nose surgery, we don't want you to have cosmetic surgery. You can apply a little light powder on the bridge of your nose, because if the light is too bright during the interview, it will make your nose shiny, and if the weather is too hot, you will easily sweat on your bridge of your nose. Those who have pungent powder, rosacea and rhinitis, it is best to go to the hospital for treatment in advance, so as not to hinder the interview effect. People with long nose hair should pay special attention to pruning before the interview. If the nose hair runs rampant, the examiner will feel sick when he sees it. In addition, don't leave dirt on your nose or eyes.
(4) perfume. Choose a perfume that suits your temperament. The fragrance should be light and the smell should give people a comfortable feeling.
Hands and nails
A woman's hand is usually an aspect of her temperament and appearance. In order to fully show its charm, keep it clean, trim your nails, never leave long nails, and never apply gorgeous nail polish. Because long nails will remind people that you are an idle young lady.
