you dont need much. get 4 suit pants (2 blue 2 gray; i got custom wool ones from asia for cheap, but you can just get them from like burlington no one gaf) and steam them after you come home. i also got the charles tyrhwitt 3 for 99 deal and bought a bunch of few blue and white shirts. get a matching jacket to your pants but i only wore it like twice and left it at my desk. any oxfords and matching color belt works—i would come to the office in sneakers and change my shoes at the desk. 

looking back i would not splurge on a custom suit or anything its lowk a waste for the internship. maybe allen edmonds and a suitsupply suit would be nice but the analysts in my group would just show up in cole haan sneakers and lulu pants, so i didnt feel the need. 

also pro-tip: get a shit ton of underwear so you dont need to care about laundry unless your place has indoor w/d. also i rec undershirts ik not everyone wears them but i sweat a ton and the uniqlo ones are really nice to not ruin your shirt after being crammed on the subway 

 

Assuming you’re a guy…

get shirts from Charles Tyrwhitt - they’re decent quality and cheap on promotion. Stick with blues and whites.

For the suit, no need to get anything too expensive. Most important thing is making sure it fits you correctly. If you can, get some tailoring done if it doesn’t fit well off the rack. I liked Tommy Hilfiger for my suit during my internship. Stick with a conservative navy or charcoal, never get a black suit.

For shoes, I’d recommend black oxfords. Make sure your belt is matching in color.
