Attending your first ACM NYCWiC conference and not sure what to wear?

Here are some tips:

  • comfortable shoes, avoid high heels

  • business casual

  • wear something you’re comfortable in and attracts the type of attention you would want at a professional conference

  • slacks and pantsuits are fine, as are dresses and skirts

  • a good length for skirts and dresses are just above or below the knee

  • it is better to overdress than underdress

  • when in doubt, ask your advisor

Here are some examples of what previous ACM NYCWiC conference attendees wore:
