People can’t get over Trinny and Susannah’s ‘job interview’ outfit which really wasn’t just the job
Trinny and Susannah brought out a ‘What Not To Wear’ book to tie-in with their TV show, and some of their advice hasn’t aged well at all.
And spare a thought for Calum Sherwood, who’s still trying to get over it. Fortunately for us he shared the pictures online.

I will never stop thinking about this. Interview outfits are ALWAYS business formal holy shit this is such bad advice! https://t.co/i36hmqVTOO

What's most spectacular about this Trinny & Susanna recommendation for job interview attire; just when every other insane part of this ensemble hits, you spot the bag. https://t.co/MTmBqGLnKj

“take off knickers” as a way to transition to an evening attire? I spat my tea out!

my Mam did as well! I have a really distinct memory of her keeping it by the phone and I’d always look through it when I was waiting for a phonecall, absolutely iconic

I can’t wait for you to take off your knickers to go for a cheeky Nandos.

Dress over trousers was a thing! As were bootcut black polyester trousers with a peculiar vestigial skirt attached.

Yeah but those are jeans: for a job interview?!

I think there was a trend at the time to advise ‘creative roles’ = never wear a suit. Not jeans,though! What we can learn from this is that neither Trinny nor Susanna ever had to interview for a job.

This is golden. No wonder I don’t get many jobs. My accessories are just not quirky enough and I feel woefully inadequate.
