Black suit for the interview?

[Brummie]

After a month in bench, I have an interview (tech role) at Canary Wharf next week. Just wondering if a black suit would be an appropriate attire.

I have never worn a suit for work or for the interview in the past, so I am a bit uncertain.

As long as you don't have

A) a black pencil tie, shades and carry some big alien looking gun
B) a hearse parked in the visitors spot

you'll be fine.

What would you do if we said it was unacceptable? Is spending £100 quid on a suit to land 60K+ worth of work too much?

Surely just weddings or funerals, or bleeding radiators at a push

Gladiators can wear black suits as well it appears.

Dark Blue or Charcol grey for me.

There is also a Slaters Menswear in Brum. Could get himself a smart Ted Baker number for less than that.

I have the same opinion. Black for an interview it's corny.

Go classy, go grey

Not as bad as pinstripe.
