IB Attire for Women?

Bump

My group is casual. Women wear black pants, black shirt, black gucci loafers or flats and a fun sweater / blazer (black w/ white accents), and some jewelry. You can never go wrong with black. Guys wear the midtown uniform for reference.

Thong, tramp stamp, mini skirt, and halter top. The Moelis Special

Following. I’m an incoming SA wondering the same

Heyy everyone is super casual, wear suit pants and a blouse / sweater and you will fit inIf client meetings, bring a blazerShoes-wise anything from boots to flats or loafers will do the trick; no one wears pumps

if you're asking this here, be prepared to get recommended to wear transparent mini skirt and g-string

Transparent miniskirt and G string is pretty common in my group

Massive hoop earrings, lip fillers, dyed hair, massive amounts of makeup that would only be suitable at a festival/rave, explicit tattoos (tramp stamps), nails that looks like claws, high heels, stripper fishnets, pigtails/braids and crop tops seem to be the norm lately with globohomo, DEI and whatnots.

The serious answers here are right on - pretty casual after covid - suit pants and a blouse-y top is just fine, or any work-appropriate dress - around/just above knee length and not formfitting. No need for pencil skirts unless you like them, I see a few people who still like to rotate them into their wardrobe. Some groups are okay with skinny black jeans but obviously wait and see on that.

Aritzia, Ann Taylor, Theory are all very appropriate. Any color but neon, bright pink, or a super crazy pattern is fine. I'd invest in some nice quality black, navy, and gray pants and then fill in with cheaper tops. You probably already have at least a few appropriate tops in your closet, anything with good coverage that looks a bit more formal than a t shirt should work. 

Grab some pants at Banana 🍌 Republic, some loafers at Nordstrom and multiple blouses. Kitten heels are okay if you can keep up with anyone walking fast outside. Grab a few knee length or longer corporate dresses. Think Kate Middleton / Megan Merkle / Amal Clooney etc. Don't dress better than any senior leadership staff.. aka no St. John's.

I do not normally dress casual, but I have been dressing this way for a long time. On weekends, I wear casual dress slacks, crew zip up or pullover sweater and a polo (golf/tennis tee). 👍

I'd get J. Crew's Cameron pants in black and charcoal (they're a stable) then add in some basic pointed toe or rounded black flats and blouses from Aritzia, Nordstrom, Club Monaco, Vince, Theory, Brooks Brothers etc. 

I'd also get some basic sheath/suiting dresses, this is basically what you wear if you're not in slacks. Ann Taylor has very reasonable prices on them, and if you're near a Brooks Brothers outlet they usually have a decent selection too.

Stick to dark colors, black, charcoal, navy, maroon and then for lighter colors stick to white, off white, pale blue and camel. Navy is appropriate but not common in NYC offices.

Reposting my post about my time in SA at an IB:

I myself largely stuck to suits during my internship since that's what people wore where I worked. 

For tops, I went to Ann Taylor and Nordstrom. For blazers and pants/skirts, I went with Theory and Ann Taylor. Hugo Boss and Ted Baker are classics but a bit more expensive, with Banana Republic and J. Crew being of high quality but a quite a bit less expensive too. Express is also great if you're looking for something fairly cheap but decent. Beware about Theory tho, since some of their clothing size-wise is a bit funky if you're not super skinny. I used the classic Longchamp tote as well as mentioned above. It's also worth noting that the J. Crew Cameron Pant is one of the most common pieces of work attire among women I've worked with, so I would recommend those for bottoms. 

For shoes, I stuck to flats since I'm fairly tall, but most people I worked with wore heels around office and flats into and out of office.

Additionally, my current company has much more casual attire post-COVID-19, so I wouldn't be surprised if everything I've put down is more formal than needed. 

If you have any doubts about color, just stick to black especially if you are in NYC. In other cities, Navy should be ok too.

Good luck with your summer!
