What is appropriate for a female to wear to a jury trial to testify?

I have 2 trials coming up soon that i will be testifying at, both times i will be climbing many steps and would prefer not to wear a skirt, dress or dress shoes if i can avoid it. Any suggestions would be wonderful.

You're right.


No dress.


No skirt


No high heels.

That leaves lower dress shoes and a business suit (or something approaching it.
Reply:Wear whatever you're comfortable in, but still dress nice, professional, and conservative. You can wear a pair of nice slacks and a nice blouse with flats. I very rarely wore dresses when I had to testify for anything. The only time I did, was I was trying to look more "holsom" lol :)
Reply:wear slacks or jeans with a nice tucked in blouse
Reply:You didn't indicate whether you are testifying for the prosecution, the defense, or for yourself. It does make a difference. I am going to assume that you are testifying for the defense, but it will not matter if you follow my instructions. Do not wear red, purple, yellow, or green. Go to a thrift store. Don't be ashamed to buy used clothes. You are recycling! Buy a tasteful blue or brown pantsuit. It should cost you no more than $10.00. Buy a tasteful white blouse without ruffles or anything else extraordinary. Buy a tasteful scarf with a little splash of color. If you choose a blue suit, stay with red, white, %26amp; blue. Should you choose brown, then stay with autumn colors like light brown, yellow, and red. It may sound ridiculous, but dress does matter in court, especially in front of a jury. Good for you for reaching out and asking for a little advice in this area. It truly is important. Good luck to you.
