Recommended Answer:
If I remember correctly, Marshalls doesn't have a uniform. So it's okay to be a little on the casual side. A simple pair of slacks and a top. Or a low key dress. It's not really what you wear, but how you wear it. Don't wear high heels; preferably something flat. If no flats, then wear something with a low heel. But it ultimately depends on where you're working. If you were going to a big business or something, you'd want to up the professionalism of your outfit.

Do you appear neat and organized?
Are your clothes clean?
Properly fitting?

I'm 17 and just got a job at Sears. For my first interview, I wore a pair of flowy brown slacks with a white button down with a low heeled brown shoe, and for my second interview I wore a ruffled black & white polka dot dress with black flats. Nothing too fancy, but nothing too casual.

This is a rule I like to use, and you should try asking yourself this question when picking out interview clothes:
if they had you start work that day, would you have to go home and change?

So you should really try to fit in with what you see at Marshalls. Take note of what the other employees are wearing, and try to fit into the spectrum; you don't want to be too far above them, but you don't want to be waay at the bottom, either.

But always remember, you can still be cute! You're working at a clothes store, so you could wear a white top with ruffles near the buttons with a high waisted skirt (with or without pattern), a matching purse and low heeled shoes.

You just always want to make sure though, that you're clothes aren't too tight or too loose!
Just be presentable, and remember: it's not just about the clothes, it's also about you. (:

But if Marshalls doesn't have a uniform, which I don't believe they do, then you want to make sure that you're looking extra (but not too extra lol) cute, because they're trying to sell clothes, and you're trying to sell THEM your wardrobe! So you have to give them an idea of what you'll be wearing to work everyday. Would you buy clothes from a badly dressed person?

Good luck, I'm sure you'll get the job! (:
