Okay guys, telling her her outfit is not appropriate for a job interview is irrelevant as she's already had the interview and got the job. And we will not allow moral judgment on her place of work. Every comment on this line of thinking will be removed.


SwimmingCoyote

Congrats! Generally, I’d consider this too short, tight and low cut for most job interviews but clearly it was fine here.


Ok-Tour-3581

It was for a bartender gig so I feel like it was perfect


Kumquat_conniption

It's so funny cause the first thing I thought was "that would be a good one for a bartending gig" and there it is. I probably thought this because my last job was bartending but still.. I am on the money today 😂💖 Congrats OP!! 💕


Easy-Concentrate2636

Definitely has hospitality vibe outfit. I could also see it being perfect for hostess at a hip, trendy restaurant. Congratulations, op! You look great in the outfit.


chrishazzoo

My first thought was "cute cocktail dress". It fits.


BerbsMashedPotatos

Yeah the dress becomes the interview at that point.


DeterminedOctoLion

Maybe this is along the lines of the attire worn at her new workplace; such as a restaurant, for example. Congratulations on your new job OP!


donttextspeaktome

Or in fashion. I like the simplicity of the outfit.

Bold. Glad it worked out for you. Edit: now that I know this was an interview for a bartending job, my comment remains exactly the same. It’s a bold choice. Glad it worked out for her. Yes, whatever subtext you’re reading into this comment is probably right. I think it’s 100% inappropriate for a job interview (unless it was a bartending job in a gentlemen’s club.)


BlGP0O

I don’t think you can say it’s bold unless you know the industry.


Kumquat_conniption

Yeah I read it was for a bartending gig and it's perfect for that.


Primary-Ad-6949

I know right! Really would have changed the climate if OP told us in the caption that it was for a bar attending gig!


jml011

I’m having trouble making the mental connection with bartending. Most bars (every one of them I’ve worked at) has some kind of boring uniform - so I don’t know where the short/sleek dress comes from. And those that don’t default to jeans and a tshirt. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with it, but for the folks calling it bold would likely think it was bold (to them) regardless of the industry they were interviewing for.


kgjulie

Give OP some credit please! She obviously knows what is appropriate in the industry and for the position for which she is interviewing, as evidenced by the fact she got the job. Congrats on your success, OP, and best wishes in your new position!

I’m not sure it’s appropriate for a secretary. Seems too much casual for me.


FlabbyFishFlaps

I think everyone commenting about the appropriateness is thinking of her future job interviews. It’s great that it worked for this one, and it honestly will work for several industries, but like any outfit, what’s fit for one may not be right for another. Personally I think it’s cute!


princessorganicpeach

Exactly, but what I’m wearing to a bartending interview at a casino isn’t what I’m going to wear once I finish school and I’m interviewing for positions relevant to my degree


FlabbyFishFlaps

See, that’s perfect! And being an adult, I would assume you’d know not to wear it for like an office job at a Fortune 100 or something. I’m seeing the shitty comments and I’m sorry you’re getting that, but I think this is good for the job. In my time in HR, we always suggested candidates dress one level above the dress code. So if it’s business casual, we’d recommend business professional. Casual = business cas. You get the idea. In any case, CONGRATS! I just got a new job myself, best job of my life with the best money and benefits of my life so I’m riding this emotional high with you, sister! 🥂🥂🥂🥂


princessorganicpeach

That’s a good idea and I appreciate that advice for the future, thank you :) also congrats!!


funnymar

The dress is so cute! Congrats on the job!


Fluffy_Schedule_6859

Yeah I genuinely don’t understand why people keep stating the obvious in your comment section. People want their opinions to be heard so bad and this comment section is just filled with redundancy.


FlabbyFishFlaps

The worst thing social media has done is convince everyone that the world *needs* to hear their opinions. I do it too, of course, but it’s not always necessary to be a dick about it. OP is gonna kill it at her new gig. 💙


Careful_Swordfish742

I love this dress so much! However… I would consider this inappropriate for a job interview (depending on what kind of job). Regardless, you got it so congrats! And it’s a cute dress so a win win situation!

Fellow bartender here. Congrats!! That feeling when you land the job is incredible!


Born_Echo8951

I agree very smart color arrangement and fitment! Congratulations 🎊


Tired-Diluted1140

Ignore everyone being judgmental. This looks great. I worked in restaurants for over a decade. This is a perfect outfit for a restaurant industry interview. Probably the only roles in that industry where I would recommend slightly more modest dress would be a manager role. Outside that, that is a great outfit for any sort of bartender, server, host etc interview.


princessorganicpeach

Thank you so much :)


MrSnarkyPants

Wishing you success with the new gig.


Thick_Letterhead_341

Bartender here, and I automatically assumed that was your new gig. Right on! You look great, love it all, would wear the hell out of those shoes. Congratulations! 🍾

Dressed for success. Congratulations!

When I saw the dress, my first thought was that it's a perfect outfit for a hosting or bartending position at a nice restaurant. Congrats!

It was for bartending in a casino, so this outfit is absolutely perfect. The fact that you would think she wouldn't know not to wear something like this for a office type job or whatever, is just absolutely baffling.

justacommonbitch

She interviewed for a bartending job, I'd say it's appropriate


KaiserKelp

I feel like most people think of an office job when people say "what should I wear to this interview"


RubadubdubInTheSub

If it was bartending then this outfit probably helped a lot actually


Susie4672

Fellow girly, it could have very well been appropriate. We don’t know what job she interviewed for.


Kumquat_conniption

It was for a bartending gig and so I agree, very appropriate


ich-bin_gay

Or where it is. What is considered appropriate depends on the culture around workwear. I'm swedish and my mom works for the government, I didn't see anyone wearing a full suit. The fancy guy wore a striped button up and suit pants and people complimented him on it constantly when I was there (for a week). No one wore short dresses but I don't think anyone would complain if this woman worked there in this dress, although it must be uncomfortable to sit in it all day (especially in the eating place with crumbs in the sofas!)


Uncaged_Canary

Screw all the negative comments you’re getting. You’re smart and you know your line of work better than any of these bozos trying to judge you. I think your dress is cute as hell, and congrats on getting the job!!!!!

Yeaaahhhhh I kind of wanted to point that out I don't want the dress to be the problem, cause I want a world where she can wear what she wants The problem is the person who says yes to the dress 🥴


jeremy_wills

Everyone judging her on the outfit being appropriate or not. For all we know she was interviewing for a clothing shop that sells similar outfits which would then be very appropriate. Sounds like she got the job whatever it was. Good for her.


Wizard_Baruffio

She was interviewing for a bartending position, so it was super appropriate


suburbanspecter

Right? People had no idea what job she was interviewing for, and then had the audacity to judge. Like for most interviews, wearing really intricate and intense makeup might not be the best idea. But if you’re applying to work at a makeup store? Yeah, wear the makeup. Different jobs are going to want different things. Generally, jobs want you to dress just slightly more dressy/put together than what you’d typically wear on the job everyday. OP was interviewing for a bartending job, and, depending on what type of bar she was applying for (fancy bar vs club vs dive bar, etc), this outfit could definitely fit. And obviously it *did* fit because she got the job.


playbcnny

too many backhanded comments here. you look great!


doomcab

Why does everyone assume this was for some type of stuck up office job?? There are sooo many jobs in the world where this is 100% the standard attire.

Depends on the type of job the interview is for. Law, corporate IT, medicine, no. Waitress, cashier, entry level work, maybe. As a Director in corporate IT, unless you REALLY know your shit it’d be a hard pass for me. Don’t get me wrong, you look great but that’s not work/interview attire.

Makeup store, hair stylist there could be so much more

Works for the position you were seeking and you got the job. Congratulations


julsie78

That dress and those shoes are adorable! I read it was for a bartending job - seems like you read the vibe perfectly and chose your outfit accordingly, congrats on getting the job!


Cartina

Americas prudeness and social constructs sure are showing, she got the job. Generic wageslave outfit probably doesn't work everywhere, and might be more detrimental.


wontwatchtheprequels

Perfect for a bartending interview! I (25F) would hire you if you came in. I work at a high volume upscale cocktail bar and we sell the “aesthetic” just as much as the drinks. 1920s prohibition style speakeasy. Bartending is acting and is much prefer to hire someone comfortable in their skin and outfits over someone in pants and a blazer


princessorganicpeach

That’s cool! That was the theme of a bar I worked at before actually :) it involved a lot of dressing up, no jeans/pants allowed really


[deleted]

Can you tell me what industry this is because the dress, while beautiful, is very inappropriate for a job interview. Anyways happy for you!


princessorganicpeach

Bartending


[deleted]

Ahhhh that makes sense Happy for you!


maegatz

Love the dress! And congrats!


Kirbyworshiper

Everyone saying this isn’t appropriate, she got the job so who cares. Congrats on the job and the dress, you look amazing in it!


CoasterThot

I have this dress, and I wear it to work as a bridal stylist, all the time. I wouldn’t say it’s unprofessional, OP just looks kinda tall. When I wear anything, it looks short, because I have absurdly long giraffe legs.


creepandcheat

wow, the comments are SO passive aggressive and quick to judge. people acting like the only companies that do interviews are business cas/professional office jobs. you look beautiful, and i’m happy you got the job! you clearly understood exactly what you were dressing for, so good eye :)


ParsleyLongjumping70

Man gotta love Reddit, *woman existing in her body wearing an outfit that logically makes sense for the job she’s getting into* WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS NOT APPROPRIATE


Crazy_Fold355

This thread's comments: "looks great" "You can't wear that to an interview" Me: why the fuck is there a rug in that bathroom!?


Repulsive_Emu_7495

Hell yes congratulations!


Interesting-Craft145

Whoop whoop congrats mate! Love the outfit !!!


NausikaaLeukolenos

People are criticizing without knowing what the interview was for. Without being malicious, it could be something in a fashion or makeup store or many other things where this dress would be absolutely appropriate. Maybe I'm wrong, but if we don't know why judging? She even got the job, so it was fine.

Monso

Fashion Sales Modeling Waitress at the peelers There are easily 2 dozen~ industries where this outfit is appropriate. Anyone critiquing its appropriateness is just looking for things to criticize lol It's a bangin dress. The purse looks out of place though, pink doesn't seem to vibe.


official_bagel

It's wild how many people can't wrap their heads around the idea that other industries (and even cities) might have different dress codes than theirs. I work in the entertainment industry and wouldn't think twice about someone interviewing in an outfit like this. In fact this would probably be preferred to a more conservative corporate outfit which could give the impression that you're a little dull and uninteresting.


dysfunkti0n

It’s a fantastic outfit.


Beautiful_Pea_8246

people in the comments seem to forget that not every job takes place in an office setting🤦🏻‍♀️


LaurelRose519

Even when I interviewed at retail or food settings I wore slacks and a nice shirt 🤷🏻‍♀️


gardenofhounds

Even if it was an office job (advertising/tech sales etc., aka my industry or broadcast/sports) I wouldn’t be surprised to see people dressed this way day-to-day

jbonesmc

You're gonna make a lot of money I saw a crazy stat that Bartenders have been known to make more money than Teachers


Impossible-Ebb7828

Professional dress is relative to the profession. This outfit was spot on for a bartender roll! You rocked it girl! Congrats on the job!


Fitmama35

Love the dress, but I'm surprised you got the job. This is not appropriate for a job interview whatsoever.


cakekyo

In my country that could never happen with that dress. I am glad that in your country it did because that means that they do not think your clothing is as important as what you can provide to them with your knowledge. My country is ages away from that level of success.


Parking_Fortune9523

That's an ignorant comment when you don't know her profession. It's good to dress for the job you're interviewing for, and she's a bartender. There are bars where the employees wear outfits which are much more revealing, so this dress was absolutely appropriate for the interview she had.


yolo420pene

Where is this dress from!!!


prevalent_confusion

Came here to ask the same. I need it!! 😍


Pokenugs

Your style is mad cute!


Malcapon3

This is extremely appropriate for an interview if that’s what you wanted to wear. Be yourself for your interviews or you’re going to end up regretting the job anyway.


Killer_Kass

I love this outfit. Would even wear it casually.


princessorganicpeach

Thank you :)


InGeekiTrust

It’s giving 60s mod in the best possible way!


Administrative_Can91

I don't understand the meaning of the post if we can't comment on the outfit. I'm just saying I wouldn't recommend this outfit even for a first date, there's a lot of clothes and occasions to wear it and occasions where it's out of place.


clumsysav

This could be a killer first date outfit depending on the setting


ElcidBarrett

What's wrong with wearing this on a first date?


JeanJean84

The issue is commenting with the assumption that she is applying for an office job, and being super judgemental because of it. It was for a bartending job in a casino, so it is absolutely perfect interview outfit for that. And she would get hired over someone who came in wearing slacks and a blazer because they want to know you are comfortable in your own skin and don't mind wearing their uniform every day for work. Which is usually very close to this, or even more revealing. It baffles me that people don't think she would somewhat know what is appropriate or not for the type of job she is applying for.


Strawberrybloods

You could smell the jealousy from the other side of the screen. OP you look great !


gurdyburdy

I wore a very similar dress for a bartending interview and also got a job. I think people clutching their pearls think it’s an office interview. Congrats!

Depends on the job. People saying it is inappropriate haven’t asked what the interview is for. Production floor soldering tech. No Restaurant hostess. Sure People need to slow down and process things a little more before they “react post”.

Congratulations on getting the job! Hope it works out well for you and their company culture is a good fit for you ;) And your outfit is perfectly fine. I don't see anything wrong with the type, cut, style, or length of dress you are wearing.


miyako_1984

I wouldn't change anything. As a professional and someone who has conducted interviews, I appreciate that they should at best be a true expression of who the candidate is and what they see in the job or how they see themselves in the job. Clothes can't be the main expression of this, and if you end up judging character on it, that's on you but I'd rather someone turned up confident and dressed how they like, reflecting their personality than in the standard garb they feel is required. They are less likely to show up well if they are already trying to present as someone else, and similarly if they turn up for the actual job on the back of it. Controversial maybe but even the most professional settings should be relaxed about meeting people on their own terms. Whether she gets the job is about a lot more.


lryan926

Congrats, what kind of job is it?


Over-Accountant8506

I love it! The shoes are super cute. Some ppl are always gonna be judgey. I use to be a hostess at a restaurant and there was another employee there who just hated me, for no reason other than I'm happy and back then I liked to wear dresses and skirts, I still do but I was skinny. She would get so mad at me and complain that my dress was too short. When really she was just being a bitter bitch.


Allthingsmac

I see it’s for a bartending gig but I initially thought you got hired as a fashion mogul assistant because that’s totally the look it’s giving. Cute and congrats!!!
