tips Scholarship interview dress code?

Hello!!! I have a scholarship interview tomorrow, which they just informed me today.....I planned on wearing a blazer and full suit whatnot, but my family told me its fine to wear baju kurung. I don't have a blazer at the moment so my only option is to wear baju kurung or suit without blazer. Anyone with any experience please help!!! Any tips for interview welcomed too, thank you :)

Baju kurung is totally fine, it is considered formal wear after all

Wear the one that fits you the best and you feel the most confident in.

Both are fine, I showed up at an interview with 20 others and I was the only one not wearing a blazer. Still got it.

Baju kurung is fine.

Baju kurung + blazer is risky

Baju kurung by itself are already considered a formal attire.

Do you see female ministers wear baju kurung and blazer during formal occasions? Or the queen or permasuri wearing baju kurung and blazer in really really formal event? No.

Wear your baju kurung proudly. Be sure to iron it first lah.
