Tuxedo. Preferably with tails.
In all seriousness, go with the suit, you can't go wrong.
Suit with no tie/top button. You hedge against both extremes - looking like a slob and looking too formal (since you are a student and it is a coffee meeting). That's my take.
dupe
Business casual
Suit, no tie
really? im thinking brooks brothers khakis and dress shirt
well the thing is, i only have a black suit
Buy a pre-owned navy suit off ebay, and get it tailored if you have to. Appearances matter for the FO broski.
and i think if i wear a suit ill set a different tone to the meeting, rather than an informal meeting/convo where it can be more personal rather than interviewesque
Wear a lighter shirt (non-white). Will lighten things up.
If you wore Khakis, I'd walk right back out.
alright, thanks guys, suit it is
...the guy showed up in jeans
Dude, he could roll up in a clown suit if he wants to. YOU have to leave a good impression. gj
Better than Khakis IYAM
