This is most dependant on the culture you are in and what the company expects you to.. however just outlining some basics:\n\nFor women... a business suit with inner shirt, preferably in contrast, light jewellery and light make up. A black/cream blazer with red, cream or other contrasting colour is preferred. The fit of the trousers makes a lot of difference. Matching shoes and purse enhance the image of the wearer. \n\nFor men.. a formal trouser in black, grey, brown are mostly worn, with stripes or plain white shirt and contrasting tie. Shoes should always match the trousers and in some cases try matching the socks with tie. Popularly worn jackets are Black and blue. Dont wear a casual hairstyle( yes, I mean it) or a watch. It makes a lot of difference\n\nAll in all, irrespective of what you wear, wear it with the right attitude and complete confidence.

rule of thumb: it's better to over dress than underdress especially in business environment. suit would be good, but depending on how hot outside, you can do a suit with short sleeves. accountemps... better over dress with them.

khakis and a dress shirt and tie with some nice shoes. Like these:\nhttp://www.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=5201\nand\nhttp://www.gap.com/browse/category.do?cid=5150\nand\nhttp://www.llbean.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CategoryDisplay?page=driving-mocs&categoryId=34576&storeId=1&catalogId=1&langId=-1&parentCategory=3541&cat4=1011&shop_method=pp&feat=ssdpa1011

usually means quite dressed up. It's different than what you wear everyday or for business.  for ladies, usually dress with color, with nice cut showing a little of skin. for men, usually a pair of nice pants (not jeans) with long sleeve shirt with nice material. Adding a jacket / blazer is also nice

Dress as you would for any interview.  Be neat and well-groomed.  Don't go in shorts, tee shirt, sandals, sneakers, running shoes, etc.  A nice tailored shirt and pants for a male, and pants and matching top or skirt and blouse for a female.  Don't wear jeans.  They should be dressier pants. You don't need formal wear (dress and matching jacket, or three piece suit and tie), but dress nicely.

A suit, if it turns out it is not as dressy, you can always take off your jacket, but at least that way you will look professional on yout first day.

If you are dressing casual for work, then you can still look good. In fact you should - no matter what people say, we still judge to a degree on appearance. Therefore don't look too messy!\nIf you are going casual, then something like a smart polo or sports shirt will go down well.\nSome good quality trousers, perhaps khaki, will always go down well - avoid jeans though unless it is a very relaxed environment and you know that this will be acceptable!\nIf you wear casual shoes, then ensure that this does not mean messy or muddy either! Shoes should still be good looking and in decent condition - there is no excuse for messiness in the work place!\nIt's one of the biggest mistakes that you have to spend a lot of money to look good.\nNot only has the standard of cheaper clothing in the shops come up in leaps and bounds as processes become more and more accurate, but the charity shops tend to have a greater range than ever as people always eager to wear the latest items dispose of items more and more regularly.\nYou can pick up great looking outfits and true bargains at charity shops.\nAnd remember, what's out of fashion now will come back in in a couple of years! You can store cheap items away to wear with pride the next time that they come into fashion.\nSo, don't despair if you are hard-up, with a little perseverance you can find lots of great items cheaply that still make you look like the classy lady that you are!\nYou can dress in a classy manner without a lot of money. The key is to avoid a few classic mistakes that people make:\nFirst off you should ensure that you don't wear any jewellery, whether earrings or brooches or other attachments, don't look tacky. This is the biggest thing that stops you looking classy. Therefore if wearing fake jewellery don't draw attention to it and keep it to gold and silver fakes.\nDon't dye your hair a strange colour and don't put too much effort into it with creams and gels, simple hairstyles tend to be what the rich go for.\nIf you want to act classy too, then you could consider doing a little bit of well placed namedropping just to set the scene that you are someone who moves in those circles. \nThe key is to consider what the event is then pick something suitable\nFor instance, if you are going to a very posh restaurant then dress different for seeing a film at the cinema.\nThe key is to be smartly dressed, but also do not dress up as something you are not. If you tend to slouch around in casuals, then don't go overboard in creating a false impression as it will soon wear off.\nPay particular attention to your feet - one of the first places women look is at shoes! If you can't take care of them, then women might think, even if subconsciously, then you can't take care of yourself and certainly not her either! A smart pair of shoes are really a must.\nGood luck!!

Tan colors, black colors, and any sort of leather. Jeans and jean jackets would also be acceptable.

Are you referring to an academic conference, like MLA or APA or AAR or AAA?  I will assume you are.\n\nTo a certain extent, the dress code depends on who you are (grad student, tenured, etc.) and, what you will be doing.   \n\nWho you are:\nGrad student: Anything you want.  Including torn T-shirts, zillions of visible piercings, etc.  (But bring a suit/dress/something more formal for cocktail parties and receptions.)\n\nAdjunct or Instructor looking for a full-time gig, or untenured professor: Business casual, or Business. You never know who you'll meet.  And you're probably trying really hard to meet folks. Be Prepared, and have your business card handy. \n\nAssistant or associate professor - Business casual, or Business.\nYou're meeting folks who may be on your tenure committee, or on a hiring committee, or whatever.  Again, Be Prepared With Business Card. \n\nFull professor: Anything you want.  \n\nIf you're not an academic: Anything you want.\n\nWhat you're doing:\n\nIf you're just attending panels and listening to folks present papers, then you can dress as casually as you'd like.  But again, if you are interviewing for a job at the conference, or hoping to network with folks at other universities for any reason, then dress Business casual or Business, because you never know whom you might meet, or where you might meet them. \n\nIf you're presenting, or networking, then, surprise, Business casual or Business.\n\nIf you're interviewing:  Business Suit/Dress.\n\nIf you're attending receptions for alumni, or cocktail parties: Business casual, business, or semi-formal, depending on your own style and comfort.

Definitely coat and tie for men (which means a suit rather than sportcoat and slacks), and a dress or elegant pantsuit for women.   No tuxes or ballgowns.

Black tie: you can wear a long dress or a short cocktail dress. Sometimes, women even wear smart pants and a very smart evening top.\n\nWhite tie: it has to be a long dress (evening gown) but it doesn't need to be poufy or anything. Just very elegant and dressy, especially since the guys will have to wear tuxes with white ties.

The dress code encompasses the wearing of a similar uniform.It says nothing about the cleanliness of its components, not the fit of the said uniform.

marks and spencers.... proper clothes for normal people

Something conservative, but I don't think you necessarily need to wear black. A dress or skirt or for a man nice slacks, shirt and tie.
