1 I think you can never go wrong with a skirted suit or pants suit, linen shirt with collar, buttoned and loose, and low heels with hose, of course. You can part ways with the jacket early on to give that "informal," "getting down to business" attitude, impression. If jeans and a t-shirt were appropriate, you wouldn't be posing the question, would you? I suppose you can just go along what other women at that meeting will be doing, but I see you as a leader rather than a follower. And details are your stock-in-trade, no? And btw, for men, it's impossible to separate the two topics--it's always "on the table." We only pretend that it's not. Clothing--or lack thereof--plays a surprisingly small role in the whole process. That's why the burqa-- burkha, burka or burqua- stuff is such nonsense. Once we realize that there is a real woman under all that instead of male terrorist-in-hiding, the same thoughts return. The real purpose there is the separation and isolation of the sexes and making it impossible to do any work outside of the home.
