Maezawa from the Corporate Planning Office here as well.
Any type of outfit is fine. However, we’ll also take photos, and those photos will be posted on the members’ page, so you should carefully consider what kind of outfit is likely to get you more offers.
Generally, a refined, feminine look—such as a dress—tends to be well received. That said, some people may prefer something like shorts that show off your legs. Rather than choosing an outfit that appeals to everyone, it might be worth wearing something that appeals strongly to a particular type of man.
However, photos are generally retaken only six months later, so I recommend coming to the interview in something you won’t regret having used for the next six months.
One branch bought a large number of swimsuits and had almost everyone change into one. As a result, the number of offers increased, exactly as that branch had hoped. Swimsuits really were a strong choice during the summer.
For the coming season, something like a fitted knit top might work well, but it also depends on your figure. Ultimately, the best choice is something that suits you.
I’m hoping the branch that did the swimsuit campaign will try a “virgin-killer sweater” campaign next, although that may be a little more daring than swimsuits.
If you assume you’ll pass the interview, being rejected can come as a shock, so I think it’s better to stay focused and take the interview seriously.
