Women are angels who love beauty. The world becomes more beautiful and lovely because of them. In this fashionable and open era, Women's clothing is colorful and comes in various shapes, so the issue of dressing is more complicated than that of men.

The general principles of women’s clothing should be neat, beautiful, stable and elegant, and coordinated and elegant. The color, style, and size of clothing should be coordinated and consistent with their age, temperament, skin color, body shape, hairstyle, and the occupation they are applying for. .

1. The choice of clothing should be appropriate.

For women, suits and skirts are generally suitable for job hunting. This is the most universal and safest attire. Regardless of age, a suit of tailoring is suitable. A suit, skirt, and a matching shirt or blouse with matching accessories will make you look elegant and confident, leaving a good impression on the other person. Avoid wearing clothes that are too tight, too transparent or too revealing. Topless and backless is generally the traditional dress for Western ladies to participate in social activities, but it may not be suitable in our country; do not wear miniskirts (pants) or clothes with too low necklines; in summer, the color of underwear (pants) should match the color of the jacket Be consistent and avoid revealing colors and outlines. Otherwise, it will make people feel undignified, inelegant, and frivolous. This is a taboo when applying for a job. A large amount of job search practice shows that no matter what occupation you are applying for, candidates who dress conservatively will be regarded as potential candidates and will be more likely to be hired than job seekers who dress openly.

Female job seekers can choose from a variety of colors. Some women believe that they must wear a black suit during an interview. Although this style of dressing is very prudent, society now accepts some brighter colors. For example, women seeking public relations or secretary positions are more likely to be accepted by interviewers if they wear yellow clothing, because yellow color usually shows rich fantasy and the pursuit of self-satisfaction. Red can show people's active and extroverted personality, strong subjective consciousness and strong desire for performance. This color is highly contagious and can easily impress the interviewer, excite him and impress him deeply. However, women should avoid pink, as this color often gives people the impression of frivolity, sleekness, and vanity.

2 Shoes should be convenient

There is also knowledge about how women wear shoes. The general principle is that they should be in harmony with the whole and match the clothing in color and style. During the interview, do not wear long and pointed high heels. Mid-heeled shoes are the best choice, as they are both sturdy and reflect the dignity of a professional woman. Boots with a fresh design will also look confident and presentable. But when wearing boots, you should pay attention to the hem of the skirt being longer than the top of the boots.

3 Socks are also very important

Socks should not be loose. Fashion designers all believe that flesh colors are the most suitable for business attire. To be on the safe side, you should keep a spare pair in your bag so you can replace them in time in case they become loose. Also, no matter how beautiful your legs are, you should not show them during an interview.

4. The accessories should be few but refined

(1) Briefcase or small handbag. Just bring one, not both. In most interview situations, carrying a briefcase conveys more authority than carrying a small handbag. You can put the basic contents of your handbag into a strapless tote bag and stuff it into a briefcase, but don't overstuff the bag. If you are short, the bag should not be too big, as it will be extremely uncoordinated.

(2) Hat. Whether you wear a hat or not, you have to be cautious about it. If your hat matches your whole body, choose one that is neither frilled nor flashy but elegant. The floppy, wide-brimmed French hat, usually with a veil, can be annoying in the business world.

(3) Jewelry. Wear as little jewelry as possible.

Avoid wearing rings on several fingers like a gypsy. Thumb rings are not acceptable. Earrings should be small and unobtrusive. In order to make you feel comfortable and focused, don't wear earrings that are too long to avoid making jingling sounds or touching your neck, or even catching on your clothes. A plain necklace is fine, but avoid fake pearls or flashy costume jewelry. A cute bracelet is perfectly acceptable, but small charms on the bracelet should be avoided, as should other jewelry with your initials engraved on it. Be sure not to wear an anklet during the interview. In short, the important principle of wearing jewelry is: less is more beautiful.

(4) Glasses. Glasses can enhance the appearance of some people, and may also make some people look uncoordinated. Try to choose a frame that suits you, and the style should be new. In addition, you must not wear sunglasses (goggles) to an interview, and certainly not reflectors. If you must wear glasses, you can choose contact lenses.

(5) Scarf. A beautiful scarf is the perfect finishing touch. Some women like blue-gray clothing, but wearing blue-gray clothing tends to darken the face. If paired with a richly colored and warm-style nylon scarf, a lively effect can be achieved. If you wear a navy blue suit, you should wear a pure white scarf, which can not only highlight the red lips and dark eyes, but also maintain the refreshing and watery temperament of navy blue, and bring out the agility and decisiveness of women. There are also some young women who like to wear silver-grey clothes. Silver gray is an elegant and elegant color, but if the scarf is not matched properly, it will look dull and plain.

(6) Silk scarf. The elegant and elegant characteristics of silk scarves can best highlight the beauty of women, but when choosing silk scarves, you must pay attention to the coordination with clothes. For example, floral scarves can be paired with plain-colored clothes, while plain scarves are suitable for colorful clothing.

5 Hair styles should be appropriate

Before choosing a hair style, you should first analyze and study your face shape. Only after you have a thorough understanding, can you choose the hair style that best suits your face shape. Generally speaking, it is enough to master the following principles:

(1) High forehead and low forehead. If your face shape has a high forehead, the ends of your hair should be combed downwards, with bangs or waves, so that your hair covers part of your forehead; if you have a low forehead, the ends of your hair should be combed upwards away from your forehead as much as possible. If you prefer bangs, they must be short. , never lower than the hairline to avoid making the forehead look lower.

(2) Wide forehead and narrow forehead. For a wide forehead, the hair tips should be combed from both sides to the middle, and use waves to cover the forehead that is too wide. For young women with narrow foreheads, the opposite is true. The hair should be combed back on both sides. If you have bangs, the curls should not extend to the temples.

(3) High cheekbones and low cheekbones. For high cheekbones, the hair on the temples should be combed forward, beyond the ear line, covering the cheekbones. The bangs may be slightly longer, but they cannot be combed in a middle parting style. As for young ladies with low cheekbones, the hair on both sides should be combed back without covering the ear line. The temples can be curled, and it is better to part them in the middle.

(4) Big nose, small nose. If you have a big nose, your hair should be combed high or back, and avoid parting in the middle, because parting in the middle will make your nose appear larger. It is best not to have bangs. Young ladies with small noses should never comb their hair upwards. The bangs should hang down to cover the hairline, but the bangs should not be left too long.

(5) Protruding chin and shrinking chin. The hair on the protruding chin, sides and forehead should be combed upward to expose the hairline, and the back of the head should be combed slightly upward. The chin should be narrowed, and the hair on the forehead and temples should be combed forward. It is advisable to cover the hair with sea and waves. The hair on the back of the head should be low and full.

(6) Thick and short neck. Hair should be combed upward on all sides and should be kept short and should never cover the hairline. If you have a long and slender neck, your hair should be combed back and avoid choosing shorter hairstyles.

6 Makeup should be light and beautiful

For female job seekers, make-up must adhere to the principle of light makeup, and must not wear heavy makeup.

(1) Lips. Lips are the most colorful, vivid and attractive part of the face, so they should be moisturized no matter what.

Young ladies should use purple lipstick instead of bright red or orange. Lips that are too harsh will give people the impression of a big mouth, which will make the examiner avoid it. Don't draw your lip lines too deep, as this will make your mouth look prominent and false.

(2) Eyes. Eyes are the windows to the soul. Therefore, the role of eyes in the interview is crucial. In order to make the eyes attractive and expressive during the interview, they should be slightly modified before the interview. For example, a lady can draw her eyebrows to make them more charming. If your eyes are small, you can gently draw eye circles around the eyes, but they should not be too dark or deep to reveal any traces of modification. People with single eyelids do not necessarily have to have double eyelids. Some single eyelids convey a more frank and friendly look. If you have problems such as myopia, strabismus and blinking, it is necessary to wear a pair of glasses for the interview. Don't let your eye problems ruin your chance of winning.

(3) Nose. When we talk about modifying your nose, we don’t mean that you need plastic surgery. You can apply a little light powder on the bridge of your nose, because if the light is too bright during the interview, the nose will be oily and shiny, and if the weather is too hot, the bridge of the nose will sweat easily. People with acne, rosacea and rhinitis are best to go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in advance so as not to hinder the effectiveness of the interview. People who usually have long nose hair should pay special attention to trimming it before the interview. If the nose hair is running wildly, the interviewer will definitely feel sick when they see it. In addition, do not leave any dirt on the tip of your nose or in the corners of your eyes.

(4) Perfume. The perfume you choose should match your own temperament. The fragrance should be light and the smell should give people a comfortable feeling.

7 Pay Attention to Hands and Nails

A woman’s hands are often an aspect of her temperament and appearance. In order to fully display its charm, it should be kept clean, nails should be trimmed, never leave long nails, and do not wear bright nail polish. Because long nails will remind people that you are a young lady who does nothing. Everyone has a love for beauty, but for job seekers, in addition to meeting the same requirements for dressing up in general social occasions, you must also pay attention to and highlight the professional characteristics of the clothing, so that your dress and dress match the requirements of the company. It matches the profession you are applying for and gives people a distinct professional image. If you are applying for a position such as a teacher, engineer, or cadre, you should not dress too gorgeously or fashionably. Instead, you should choose solemn, elegant, and generous attire to show a steady, elegant, and rigorous professional image; If the occupation you are applying for is a tour guide, public relations, service, etc., you can choose gorgeous and fashionable clothing to express your lively and enthusiastic professional characteristics.
