ARA says:

For men, a beautiful silk tie with simple graphics or stripes can have the same effect. Shoes, handbags or briefcases should be polished or cleaned before you go to an interview. And if you're buying new shoes, says Celentano, buy the best leather you can afford -- it's a smart investment.If you've recently added blue streaks to your hair or had fingertip decals put on in honor of your favorite sports team, remove them before a job interview.

For women, a crepe, lightweight wool or rayon-polyester blend drape nicely and stay relatively wrinkle-free.

4. attention about what not to wear
Jangly jewelery, bare legs or many things that can make your ideal image disappear into the air.
