How appropriate is it to wear a different suit coat and trouser at a job interview?

Question

I've got a job interview, but I have not got a suit that exactly matches my trouser; the suit coat I have slightly different shade of brown. In the shops, they do not have my size so I cant buy a new one. How appropriate is it to wear what I go? That is, a suit anmd trouser which dont precisely match? Thanks.

Answer 1

It depends what sort of job it is. If it's a job in tescos or something, i suggest you ditch the jacket and just wear a tie. If it's a big job, I don't think you will get the job in a different coloured suit.

Answer 2

depends on hw it suits u or ur personality....

Answer 3

You should not wear different shades of brown. In that case it would be better to wear beige trousers and the brown jacket and brown polished shoes and a white shirt and a tie... x*x The tie should be beige or brown or beige with brown.. to match your other outfit. x*x

Answer 4

If the jacket and trousers do not match then, it's not a suit–it’s a jacket and trouser combination (combo for short). If it's all you have then it is permissible, but only just, and, you should start hunting for a suit (that matches) to remedy this.

Answer 5

A suit is jacket and trousers.  So shops don't have your size - how very odd.  Don't see any rason why you should not wear a jacket and trousers that do not match but then I can't see it.  You need to ask someone who can actually see you in it.

Answer 6

Not recommended but if it's all you have ...

Answer 7

the worst is when they are slightly different.

better find lighter colored trousers.

if not just go with jeans and the jacket or trousers and shirt + tie (or shirt and V neck jumper).

probably most important is to look neat and relaxed, don't worry too much and definitely: wear a warm SMILE!

good luck!
