(Male) how to dress up for in-person meeting?

I am a Zoom kid (analyst), never been to a office in my 1Y+, or ever. I have an upcoming meeting (international travel for me) with team and partner.

What’s recommended and what’s considered too much or too casual?

Depends on who you are meeting? What's the context - that would make it easier to advise you.

If it's a formal invite to the office, you can always email and ask for the dress code.

If it's your company, just ask your mentor at work.

Depends on the situation - E.g. If going into a FS client, you may dress up more

But totally - Black pants or slacks with a button down shirt. Sports coat optional

What is the trip for and where will your meetings be? It will make a difference in what is appropriate to wear. For example, if you're headed to client meetings in Zurich, I would wear a full suit with a tie and nice shoes. If, instead, you were headed to an internal off-site meeting at a resort in the Caribbean, appropriate attire would be very different.

Is this GPS or commercial

Ask your manager what is the dress code

You’ll need to bring multiple kinds of outfits—office, team dinners, travel, etc.

Got an email from someone who is supposedly wanting to hire my firm, but a few things are giving me pause: 1) I’m a rising third year, so idk why they are emailing me, 2) it just says “dear attorney” then the short message, not my name (though practice group is correct), 3) it is from a gmail email address, not the company. So… do you think this is real? I plan to forward it to a partner, but should I first send to IT to see if it’s even real? Just seems weird to me.
