Can You Wear a Shirt Dress for a Job Interview?
A Shirt Dress for a job interview reads as polished and professional without leaning overly formal, especially when you add structure with a Wool Overcoat or finish with Ballet Flats. The silhouette is buttoned-up enough to convey competence while staying approachable, which works across most office environments. Keep accessories minimal so the focus stays on the clean lines of the dress itself.
