magazine publishing companies in london
What to wear for an internship?

What should I wear for my internship in London. I will be working with a publishing company for an entertainment magazine. Also, what should I wear for the interview? I don’t have any business clothes per say.
I do have a plethora of skirts but most are casual. When i say casual I do not mean short, though. Just about all my skirts come down to the knee or past it. Should I get button up shirts or something more professional like that or are skirt/ shirt combos ok?

If you’re male, black or khaki pants and a button down with no wrinkles. No jeans, rips, fades, or sneakers. Wear a shirt and tie for the interview.

If you’re female, khakis, dark pants, or a knee length skirt with a light sweater or 3/4 sleeve top. A pencil skirt and a blouse would be good for an interview.

Always dress conservatively and to impress. Remember that first impressions matter and a lot of people come out of internships with job offers.
