Attire for my first conference presentation

P

Guys,
I'm leaving early tomorrow for my first international conference presentation (Yeah!! and Oh no!!!)... am incredibly nervous, although I know 20 yrs later I,m going to look back and laugh!

Any ideas on what to wear? Complete formals is out of the question, not least because I havent any washed and ironed sets. My wardrobe has jeans, tees, some formal shirts and some formal trousers, that's all!

Help??

Are you male or female? That might influence things.

I'm female and at my first conference presentation I just wore a very smart shirt and comfortable trousers. Convenience was important because it was an international conference (in Canada) so I couldn't have anything that might get creased or ironed. And my luggage carrying was restricted.

Seemed to work anyway.

Good luck!

Ok. Out of what you have available I'd recommend formal trousers and formal shirt, assuming they'll travel in a suitcase well.
