In regards to suits, dress shirts and ties, what colors are acceptable? IS tan or light charcoal okay for a suit, or do eikawas prefer darker conservative colors?
Silly specificity, but I want to bring suits over with me, rather than buy them there. Though I was surprised to hear the fairly inexpesive prices Canuck mentioned.

For an interview I would definitely wear a black or dark suit. Some of the eikawas don't seem to mind lighter suits such as grey but Japan is pretty conservative generally. Use your own discretion providing you aren't willfully eccentric.

The large chain language schools will allow you to wear simple khaki trousers from the GAP, Uniqlo, etc. You really didn't need a suit.

Women can wear just about anything. We had one young lady that dressed everyday like she was backpacking along Khao San Road. It was actually ridiculous, now that I think about it.
