I can't emphasize this enough. At my school, some PNMs got "dressy" confused with "party attire." Sequiny sparkly shirts, ripped up hems that show your belly ring, tanks that show your bra straps, and pants that show your butt crack are
never appropriate for recruitment. Err on the side of pretty, not sexy. If you happen to be a big chested girl, unfortunately any low-cut top is inappropriate. I don't want to see your boobs!
I'm with everyone, a full business suit is really too stuffy for recruitment. However, pieces of a business suit can be appropriate in the right context. Express has some cute suit jackets that would look great paired with a camisole, nicely tailored jeans, and heels.
One other thing...if you're wearing a thin fabric shirt or skirt, or a top with a big knit, stand in bright light (like outside or in a well lit room) and have a friend look at you from all angles to make sure nothing's see through. Some PNMs have been embarassed when they've realized their thong is totally visible through their new skirt in the bright sunlight, or that their red bra is visible through their sweater. And not to be gross, but wear correct undergarments under thin tops...sometimes the rooms can be cold...and that's all I'm saying about that!
