What to Wear: Midi Skirt for a Job Interview

A job interview calls for a look that's one notch more formal than the company's actual day-to-day dress code. Here's how to make a midi skirt work for it — plus a way to actually see it on yourself before you commit.

Getting the silhouette right

For this occasion, look for a hem that hits mid-calf, not ankle, to avoid shortening the leg line. A slight structure (not clingy jersey) holds the shape while walking.

  • Heels or a low boot rather than a flat sandal, which can shorten the silhouette
  • A belt at the natural waist if the skirt is high-waisted

Color and finishing touches

  • Tonal shoes to elongate the leg line
  • A fitted top so the volume stays at the hem, not the waist

What the occasion actually needs

A job interview is one notch more formal than the company's actual day-to-day dress code.

  • Fit matters more than trend here — nothing should need mid-interview adjusting
  • Research the company's actual dress norms first; 'formal' means different things at a bank vs. a startup
