You’ve done the prep. Your CV is triple-checked. Your elevator pitch locked in. Your smile rehearsed in the mirror and the mindset? Locked and loaded! Now comes the part that sets the tone before you even say hello. Your outfit! Because whether it’s a corporate boardroom, a start-up café, or a Zoom call where only your top half shows, dressing right sets the tone. Because what you wear isn’t just part of the impression – it is the impression! At Westside, we believe dressing well isn’t about fitting in. It’s about standing out with confidence! Like your own way of saying – “I’ve got this!” So, let’s talk interview dressing that looks good, feels better, gets noticed, and gives you the confidence to nail that interview!

Let’s start with the classics. You know – Sharp tailoring. Clean silhouettes. And soft power tones. Dressed in a sleek blazer, tucked-in chic blouse with high-waisted trousers? Impeccable! This has to be your go-to when the dress code says formal! But we see your ambition saying CEO-in-the-making! Neutral palettes, clean lines, polished shoes. The goal? Professional!

You want to look confident, capable, and like you get the vibe. Add a bit of personal style. Got a pop of colour you love? Bring it in subtly. Like a powder blue shirt, a printed kurti, or loafers in tan instead of basic black. Yes, you still have to dress up for Zoom. And no, your PJ bottoms are not invisible energy. Go for a well-fitted blouse, a chic printed co-ord set, a formal midi dress, or even a chic kurta with pretty earrings will keep your top-half polished. Keep it cool. Crisp. And you. Because even on-screen, your presence matters.

Footwear matters, even if only you know you’re wearing them. Smart flats or mid heels keep you grounded. Comfortable, polished, and ready to stride into your next chapter. Accessories? Keep them minimal. A sleek watch, a structured handbag. It's the little details that say you’ve thought this through. Just like you’ve thought through your answers to “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
