I can't see the sexism.
Before my first professional job interview after college, I spent hours googling acceptable interview clothing for my industry. I went shopping specifically for a new blazer. I wore a pencil skirt, nylons (despite that probably being unnecessary in Florida) and heels. My current position is incredibly casual despite being in corporate finance, and I still wore a suit to the interview. You don't need a counselor or an advisor to do research on your own.
And if you're offered a last minute interview you can't make it to, offer to meet at a different time to ensure you're not late. If it's a new area, leave early - way early. Better to sit in your car waiting for 20 minutes than be late.
Unless you grew up under a rock, do not have web access, learned everything you know via osmosis, and have literally never been outside around other humans ever, there is no excuse for blaming legitimately poor presentation on anyone but yourself.
