That day doesn't come during 1L unless you go out of your way to make it come.

Random anecdote:

A kid in my section wore a suit every day of 1L. He made it a point to bring this up in one of our class discussions - said people judge him for it but that he was emulating his dad and grandpa who wore suits every day of their lives (shoutout Barney Stinson) but he never seems genuine and it just came off as eye-roll-y

But what if the interview gets spicy, and the interviewer asks you what you are wearing? How will he/she respond when he/she finds out you are not wearing the male lingerie, a finely tailored suit?

Northwestern had multiple required (or STRONGLY recommended) biz-formal and biz-casual events during 1L year. I'd never dressed up so often in my life (until I wore biz-cas every day during the summers).

Anything goes from jeans and t-shirt to preppy. Have a suit on hand though for interviews and networking.

Just wear something that doesn't smell. And if you are a foul-foot flip-flop wearer, reconsider your shoe choice.
