Would you consider this OK attire for an interview?

op here - i started wearing turtlenecks under my sport coats and pants all winter and now that the weather is turning, i'm wondering if i can get away a fine cotton one - i find turtlenecks so much more comfortable and sleek than button down shirts but i wanted a DC ladies' opnion on it (as i'm not in dc but interviewing for a DC political (non trump) job. |

You know something? I really doubt that Roger Federer has to go on any job interviews. He's one of the highest paid athletes in the world when you consider his endorsements. And even if he did, he's an internationally recognized sports superstar and can wear whatever the h*ll he wants.

This is a terrible look. If a guy wore this on a date, I'd be ticked off, because it looks pretentious and is just a horrendous look. If someone wore it to an interview? Bahahahaha I'd laugh him out of there. There's no way he'd get the job.
Just because you like something doesn't mean it's appropriate, OP. This is the height of unfashionable and it has no place in an office environment or an interview. Especially if the job is anything remotely political. You've got to be a troll because nobody can be this clueless. |

| This is DC. You wear a tie in your interview. |

| If you don't want the job, please, by all means, wear that turtleneck. |

Agree. Wear the turtleneck after you get the job. LOL |

| Just awful. I'd stick to a traditional button down and would think that any interviewer-- especially for a political position-- would expect a tie. |

| I think you should always go for conservative/traditional when it comes to interviews unless you're in a creative field. You have no idea what the interviewer will think and it's a risk. Wow them with your talent not your style. |
