Karen Williams gives fashion advice for interviews

By Maggie Mlado

In week 6 of my journey on the Creativity Works course, Channel 5’s 100% hotter presenter Karen Williams came in to a masterclass.

The purpose of her masterclass was to give the best professional advice on dressing for an upcoming job interview and how to dress appropriately when on the job.

Open your wardrobe, get that cuppa and let’s started. :)

Do I need to buy new clothes every time I go to an interview?

You can’t afford to buy new clothes for every interview. So what will you wear? Will you borrow money off your mum/ partner? Not unless there’s holes in all of your clothes!

So what can you do?

Easy. >

> Just go through your wardrobe and find clothes with a retro vibe, yes those clothes at the back of the wardrobe, which you forgot about. For example, a loose, plain t-shirt, or (your mum’s old) trousers and combine them with a statement blazer! Take your time and be creative;)

How many colours can you combine within an outfit?

Up to four (4!!) colours. But you need to be mindful, because there’s a thin line between being stylish and going a over the top! Head over to her Instagram to get some inspo!

How should I coordinate my colours?

Trick 1

Pick a check/pattern (no cats or flowers or anything!) colour top, it doesn’t have to be new, dig it out from your wardrobe and to pair it with neutral coloured choice for chinos or loose trousers. Also, as much as jeans are comfortable, do avoid them on for interviews.

Trick 2

Another way to coordinate colours is vice versa to the previous said: choose a simple, neutral colour top and combine it with some coloured/ check chinos or trousers.

Add the finishing touches by adding small heal (!!) shoes and a (bright, up to you how bright), one-colour blazer.

And there you go! You’ll leave a great first impression when walking in and out of the interview room and building.

Also, don’t forget to smile, it’s better than make up!:)

Karen Williams came to Media Trust to teach us the DO’s & DON’Ts to wear for an interview.

I spoke to her for a personal query and she literally just lifted my whole spirit and told me to embrace myself.

What I can say I took from that Masterclass is that I can show a bit of personality with the way I dress but keep it professional.

Interview Fashion with Karen Williams

By Emmanuel Ajayi

Karen Williams is a sweet one.

I have taken on the suggestions from this masterclass, on what to wear to an interview. And I will be purchasing some turtle necks, shirts and chinos.

100 Percent more Professional! - A fashion masterclass by the amazing Karen Williams

By Lucrece Grehoua

As well as news and producing, I also have a love for fashion. In my first ever interview to join a large broadcasting company, when asked what was one extra thing I wanted to tell the company I said "Well I enjoy fashion, and my genuine goal whilst delivering projects and working ,is to colour plain, boring offices with my brightness. I want to walk through the office every day in my looks that I woke up and worked to put together and be proud of who I am. I am a young person, and I believe in self-expression!".

I did not for one second believe that this would put them off, because I believed my skills and genuine personality would allow them to understand why fashion is a part of my being, and how I deal with every day difficulties through my clothes.

In this situation they loved my answer, and were extremely happy that on top of my work I was so charismatic about embodying my full self at work.

Here I am serving absolute looks (if I should proudly say so myself) during the working week:

However, in many situations when we are not so confident about our potential job roles and future companies, we have to learn to tame ourselves and drop the statement piece dangly earring or the cute pink Bershka blazer dress.

So, we were honoured to have the fabulous and stunning Karen Williams come in to give us all a masterclass on dressing for an interview in our new jobs.

It was great to hear her story about how she got into fashion, how she rocked up to her first interview in huge platform boots (but still got the job because of her genuine heart), and how she dealt with imposter syndrome later in her career.

She gave me some tips that I would never think about, such as never wearing white to an interview (too dressy) or being careful of my go-to signature look which is a blazer flung onto both my shoulders (too pretentious).

I was also amazed by the way she took a green floral dress that I would never pick out and showed the class how to transform this random piece into a whole interview fit.

We got to each have turns styling each other and got great feedback from Karen Williams herself. And the session ended with a cute impromptu styling session of one of our very own, Millie Blair who usually is not too comfortable wearing very dressy outfits. She looked gorgeous!

I aspire to one day work with Karen Williams or somebody in her field. I have never been confident enough to say that I would like to style a celeb, but I know that one day this is something I will have liked to achieve. I hope to one day shadow and assist Karen on a shoot and gain some more of her invaluable advice. Fingers crossed!!!

Fashion Impression

You can only impress once. Wise words from the one and only @karen1williams. The way we have to dress without breaking the bank is to see what you have and build around it, but also to respect the classic. Once you learn this and you are able to understand this, you will be able to see and mould your fashion for your dream job.
