The description you have given would be exactly as I would advise if the person was going for a corporate job, having worked in advertising though for a few years I can honestly say people dress the complete opposite. Even after working for the same company for many years I still had a bit of a shock when someone walked past wearing a skirt with less material than a tie, a top that was more low cut than.... well lets just say you didn't have to imagine the rest of the view that much, as well as pink hair! In that working environment there was nothing at all wrong with the daily dress code. I loved going to work with jeans and a t-shirt not bothering to shave every day if I didn't want to. Then I worked in a place like you described for a while. I didn't mind that either although I know what I would choose. Even in an environment that is not dressed as smart as a corporate company I would still advise that the person going to the interview dress for the occasion and not appear as though they are about to go to a nightclub.
